how it works

It’s so easy. Simply place your order, selecting the issues that you’d like. Time to Organize will then e-mail the master PDF documents to you. Then, make copies of the newsletters on the paper of your choice — in your desired quantity — affix postage and mailing labels, and pop them in the mail. Or, even easier, the newsletter may be forwarded via e-mail to clients. Or you can upload the PDFs to your website for even easier access.

We offer personalization services. If you want to personalize the newsletter with your company colors and/or contact information and logo, we can do that for an additional charge. The more issues you personalize, the better the per-issue cost! Please note, we personalize on theback page, in the “return address” area. We do not alter the other pages of the newsletter with the exception of your company colors throughout.

CUSTOMIZATION INCLUDES:

1. custom colors: (please let us know your Pantone/PMS colors or CMYK color mix, 1 or 2 colors in addition to black if you desire)
2. contact information: (personalization on the back page, return address area… you may include any or all of the following: name, title, company name, phone number, email address, web address, mailing address, and/or tag line)
3. company logo: (added to the back page, return address area, usually placed above your contact info… please provide a jpg or tiff of your logo via email to sara@time2organize.net after you place your order)

YOUR PERSONAL TOUCH

Organize Today Client Newsletter for Professional Organizers is created as a ready-to-send marketing tool. You don’t need to do a thing to it once you receive it. Just send it! However, if you’d like to personalize with your contact information, here’s the scoop:

If you choose to print and postal mail the newsletters, you will be happy to hear you have many options. While the newsletter is designed in color (soothing tones of blue and green, with black text for easy readablity), it will also print beautifully as black and white copies — an inexpensive printing option. (See FAQ’s below.) You might consider printing the newsletter on the same paper stock as your letterhead, brochures, and business cards for a consistent, pulled-together look.

Time to Organize will send one master copy by e-mail and you can personalize in these ways:

MAILING THE NEWSLETTER

If you plan to send it out in a “hard copy” printed format via postal mail, you can personalize the back page 1/2 panel. Just create a 1/2 page (8-1/2 x 5-1/2) in any computer program that you (or your local copy center) can “cut and paste” into the newsletter master copy before Xeroxing them. This is where you might include your logo, return address, or other contact information. You might also include a line or two about your services, upcoming events, etc.

You might also consider this easy way to add your personal information: create simple labels — available in many sizes — to adhere to the return address area.

Another professional organizer shared her preferred method of personalizing this newsletter: she is going to create a simple, one-page flyer to insert in the newsletter! Great idea.

Another option: You can write a personal note by handwritting a few words on each copy before you sent them out.

When folded down to 8-1/2 x 5-1/2, the newsletters are self-mailers (no envelopes needed) and qualify for one-ounce, first-class postage rates.

You may even want to consider 3-hole punching the newsletters so your clients can save them as personal reference tools.

E-MAILING THE NEWSLETTER

You may also opt to e-mail the newsletter to clients, eliminating postage and printing costs! If you plan to send the newsletter out in PDF format via e-mail, the personalization will come in the body of your e-mail to your clients. In addition to the PDF newsletter attachment, you’d write a few sentences about your services, upcoming seminars, new events, etc., plus your contact information. There are not as many options for personalization with the PDF version, as you really can’t manipulate the PDF newsletter. But your clients will still get the same information they would receive in the hard copy mail version.

Another option is to order a personalized version of the newsletter. For an additional charge, we will include your logo and contact information on the back 1/2 page panel of the newsletter, plus match the entire newsletter to your company colors. Please feel free to contact us if you’re considering this option.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ’S)

• What if I want to print the newsletter as black and white copies?

Time to Organize will send out a color version that can be printed in either color or black & white. If you prefer black and white (certainly more economical), you’ll just ask your copy center to print on black & white Xerox. If you’re running the copies yourself, simply feed a color master into any black & white Xerox copier; it will convert the color images to shades of grey. It looks fantastic either way. For color copies, simply use a color copier, your home color printer, or, if you’re printing hundreds of copies, then contact your local printer who can print more economically on an actual printing press.
 

• I’m not sure I can afford to market my business right now. Why should I invest in Organize Today?

Think of it this way: If the average person was to create a newsletter, she’s spend about one hour to come up with a newsletter concept, 2-4 hours researching and writing it, 2-3 hours designing it, and one hour proofreading it. So that’s about 6-9 hours of work at, say, an average of $50/hour (the average hourly rate for an organizer.) So to do it themselves (considering what their time is worth), it would “cost” them at least $300 – $450 to create each issue. So at $50 per issue… what a bargain! Spend your time doing what you love to do — let Time to Organize do the marketing!

 

• What if I want to add the newsletter to my website?

Adding the newsletter to your website is a great idea! It gets clients to your website, where they can learn more about you! We ask that it be a offered as a “free subscription,” where you have your website visitors sign up to receive your free Organize Today newsletter. We do this for two reasons. First, this allows you to build up your database of potential clients, enticing them with an educational and informative newsletter that is also a marketing tool for you. Secondly, this protects both of us from having non-subscribing professional organizers download the newsletter to use with their clients without paying for the subscription.
