For quite some time I have meant to do a mail shot to my customers, I have quite a number of customer email address after 5 years but have never emailed them : ( I'm not very good at self promotion
I use Outlook in Office 365 for emailing but was wondering how you mail a few hundred customers, I understand there are other applications out there that you can use but I'd be interested to know how others keep in touch by e-mail.
Thanks in advance,
Adam/Bagpuss

We've been sending out newsletters by email (and snail mail and hand-out) for years - they're just in a contacts category which can be sent to in one hit.

Re: Keeping in touch with Customers by Email
I use mailchimp. Very easy to use and free. I've around 100 email addresses now and I send out a regular monthly email newsletter. (Regular right up until June's that I have missed from being so busy).

You got to do it regularly to customers to keep them coming back
