Email Errors

Is your email communication in trouble? Des Moines Alliance member Kathy Towner says there are “ten dead giveaways that tell me a company needs help with their email campaign.” In a recent blog posting she outlines each and gives readers the chance to add their own email peeves. See if your organization falls into any of these email traps at http://winblogger.typepad.com/winblogger/2007/09/best-practices-.html.

For more great email advice, you'll also want to check out member Cecelia Munzenmaier's presentation on email etiquette, “Keeping Your Foot Out of Your Virtual Mouth” at http://word-crafter.net/EmailEtiquette.ppt

This is your site, a place where members/communicators can share news and information.

We are currently soliciting you to contribute content for the site. This is a chance to share your areas of expertise and your thoughts with your fellow communicators.

If you are interested in contributing on an ongoing basis, contact us at awcweb@mchsi.com.

We encourage everyone's feedback in establishing topic categories.
