"I have taken numerous workshops with Marilyn over the past three years and have contracted her media release distribution services for the same length of time to great success. This year we also contracted her to rebuild our current website into a content management system so that I, as the Executive Director and only staff member, could update it myself..."

“Thank you Marilyn for helping us with the AAWA website. Starting a new website is a daunting task and can lead to some confusion on where to start and what to do. Thanks to your help we have hit the ground running with the new website. By showing us how to maintain our own website and edit content ourselves, we are able to maintain our site better, faster and for a far lower cost..."Read more about what Mike from the Alberta Amateur Wrestling Association had to say about this experience...
"I would definitely recommend this tutorial to anyone who wants to learn how to publish professional looking electronic newsletters. I really enjoyed the opportunity to work one-on-one with Marilyn. I learned so much about how to design and distribute an enewsletter! Marilyn was able to answer every question I had and walk me through the publishing to distribution process and beyond, step-by-step to make sure I understood." ~ Shannon Werbicki, Central Alberta Manager, Kidsport Alberta
"Whitemud Equine contracted with Marilyn earlier this year to help us rebuild our website and help us create an enewsletter program. The response to our enewsletter has been fantastic and it has grown from 100 subscribers to over 600 in just six months! Writing and publishing the enewsletter has been incredibly easy since Marilyn provided the template and great advice as to regular content and continuity. The website development is also getting great reviews and Marilyn is excellent at providing trouble-shooting and advice. She is also very aware of the latest applications and technologies which have really helped to make our website serve our membership. As a non-profit organization where time and money is always in short supply, I am happy that I can finally maintain the website and the enewsletter in-house. Any changes, news items, etc take just a few minutes and Marilyn is always on the other end of the phone if I need help." ~ Diane David, Administrative Director, Whitemud Equine Learning Centre
"I attended two workshops led by Marilyn Jones: Optimizing Media Releases and Social Media Relations. Marilyn is a dynamic facilitator and instructor who not only knows her subject thoroughly but can communicate it well and understandably no matter what the background and experience of the participant. In addition, Marilyn delivers more than promised and one such gem was hearing about Joomla at the workshop, which inspired me to create my own website using Joomla after hearing Marilyn's story's about its strength, ease of use and suitability. Anyone considering learning more about all of the potential within the world of internet media, social networking and marketing and how to make it work for them should not hesitate to sign up for her workshops." ~ Brian Scott Marketing, Technology & Research Director, Communitas, Edmonton

Thanks to the internet and web-based enewsletter service providers, it is quick, easy and cost affordable to design and distribute an html or electronic newsletter. Unlike a pdf newsletter which is essentially a print newsletter delivered electronically as an attachment, an html newsletter appears in the body of an email exactly as if it were a printed page with columns, pictures, headlines and links to your website or other online resources. Many service providers, also offer additional features such as integrating PayPal for donations, online event registrations and customized surveys, to mention but a few. And, best of all, service providers allow you to track how many recipients opened the email, clicked through to other information and forwarded the newsletter to a friend. You’ll also be able to post a newsletter signup form to your website so your mailing lists grow and are managed without effort. With easy to compile and printable reports, you’ll know right away what worked and what didn’t so you can improve your next enewsletter.
