I am actually signed up for Mary's newsletter and I often go to her site for great inspiration and education. She is a wonderful writer and is so intuitive. I highly recommend you sign up for her news letter and visit her site often, as you will learn so much

Serena you are a real class act! I will be signing up for your newsletter too!

My newsletter is called "Around the Virtual Office". It is usually about Social Media and how it can help my clients. I also write about a topic that a client may request more information on. This month I did some stats on Domestic Violence and Breast Cancer in observance for awareness for both.

Yes, what a great idea, Tess - thanks so much for putting it out there!

My newsletter, Copywriting to Get Clients, is published on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of each month and is full of effective website copywriting tips that do-it-yourself service pros can put into place to help them get more clients. (Always a good thing! ) Each issue also highlights a free or low-cost biz resource that I've found and want to share with readers.

What a great idea! Thanks, Tess!

My newsletter is The Divine Line, and you can sign up here. Everyone who signs up gets a copy of my ebook: “Five Ways a Virtual Assistant can Impact Your Business and Increase Your Profits!” (Although everyone here already knows how a VA can impact their client's business! )

Omigosh, Andrea, what a wonderful compliment from you! Made me gasp! May I quote you? Seriously, I want to put that on my site, with a link to you, of course!

Tess, thanks for the opportunity to share our newsletters!

My newsletter is called TargetStars Small Business Newsletter and I send it out once every two months. I discuss a variety of topics that affect small business owners ranging from social media to bartering (this was the topic of our last newsletter). I have gotten great feedback from my newsletter and there are quite a few VAs signed up as well. Feel free to sign up here. The more the merrier!

Hopefully during my slow time, I can get something together. I spend so much time writing for others I have a hard time writing for myself. It is such a must to educate potential clients of what a VA can do for them.

Since I have changed Web hosts I am trying to learn to use PHPlists so I can begin to offer newsletters. I must be making it harder than it is. I'm told PHPlist is a good program, but I'm really bumfuzzled with it.

But -- Keep on learning!

Personally no, and right now I'm not planning on it. Every website you visit wants you to sign up for a newsletter and most of it you won't read anyway because you're far too busy with professional and personal responsibilities. I have a few I subscribe to - the local Business Centre, Website Magazine, VA Today and a couple of techie ones I've been with for years. Most of those I read when I get around to it ... there are only so many hours to get everything done between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m. seven days a week.

It is so easy these days to fall into the trap of "information overload", which is stressful and takes your time away from what has to be done every day. Pick 3 or 4 that you find really interesting and read them when you have a few minutes. Spending oodles of time reading newsletters is burning up the time you could be networking, attending events and gaining clients. Just my personal thoughts.

Lynne

I am a current subscriber to a few of the newsletters listed in this thread and for the ones I am not, I will most certainly sign up.

I just launched a newsletter for my business called Visions - where I will be sharing some multimedia tips and information once a month to my subscribers. And because I enjoy audio and video so much; some of the content will be in audio and video format.

You can sign up for my newsletter by going to my website (link in my signature).Sign-up is in the lower right hand side portion of the home page.

I'd love to see this list continue to grow - if you publish a newsletter for your VA practice, please post a reply here with a bit of info on what your focus is, how often you publish, and where we can sign up!
