10 Reasons to Start Getting your VQG Newsletter by Email
10. You’ll get the news sooner. The newsletter goes out by email at least a week before paper copies are even mailed.
9. It’s the green choice. You’ll help the Guild save paper (LOTS of paper), ink, and even gasoline. And if you read it on screen, you won’t have to pay for ink or paper either.
8. The newsletter shows up in C O L O R when it arrives by email.
7. It’s up-to-date. Paper newsletters are to email as scissors & templates are to rotary cutters & rulers. Remember when rotary cutters were that trendy new thing that other people used?
6. It’s neater. You can save a year’s worth of newsletters on your computer, and never have to dust them, or put them in the recycling bin, or even throw them away.
5. You can read it better. On your computer screen, it’s easy to make the newsletter text REALLY BIG if you like.
4. It’s easy, and it’s thrifty. When VQG sends out paper newsletters, each one costs the guild about $1.50 due to bulk mailing steps, plus postage, plus time. Newsletters distributed by email don’t need to be printed, or processed, or stamped.
3. Changing to email supports other Guild programs. That $1.50 per paper newsletter adds right up when multiplied by 10 newsletters and dozens of members… The money saved by switching to email distribution could be going to support our speakers & programming, sewing bees, charity quilts, and good times.
2. It’s something to read when you are pretending to do computer work. Try to look busy while you savor every word.
And finally…
