I've been working on a newsletter for about 8 weeks or so. First there was the free trial. That was in December. No, no, no--back up. First Constant Contact was suggested in Alyson Stanfield's newsletter. Then I signed up for the free trial. It was so much work to put all my email addresses into the system that I spent about 4 weeks internally debating whether a newsletter system---is that what they're called? was something I'd really use? was something of benefit to me or anyone? One day I'd like to reduce my internal debating system time frame to about 24 hours. At last, I signed up plus had to add the unlimited images feature for only $5 a month more. I couldn't make it through a paragraph of a newsletter unless it had images.
Finally today I sit down after hours and hours of internal newsletter writing to do the actual writing. I'm cruising along but when I "preview" my newsletter my images and text are all wonky. I called customer service which is excellent, btw. The guy suggested I try out the new improved version. It seems I was caught in the middle of the old version, the new version, and not knowing what the heck the difference between the two was due to lack of spending any time with the free trial because I was in the debating phase. Except for having to start completely over, the New Version was exactly what I needed. So I believe you will see, with all it's bumps and warts, a newsletter tomorrow!!!!!
