Educate: A regular newsletter can educate distributors, sales reps, or even prospects. 3. Boost credibility: Publishing a newsletter is a way to send out great information with your name on it. 4. Stay in touch: Advertising not in your budget Exhausted your public relations options A newsletter can keep your name in front of a small, well-defined audience. 5.
