Users Newsletter Content Template
1. Header & Intro
- Title: Linku2 Hibiscus Coast - [Month] Community Updates.
- Intro Blurb: 1-2 welcoming sentences focusing on local happenings, community news, and seasonal highlights.
2. Promo/Community Banner
- Placement: Insert your banner (like Snowplanet) directly below the intro. Maintaining a standard horizontal format keeps it prominent without disrupting the flow.
3. Current Feature Spotlight
- Header: "Current Feature: [Feature Name]" with a link to the main feature page.
- Content: Keep the winning layout from the business template: 2 to 3 community-focused articles with an alternating image alongside a short 30 to 40-word teaser and a blue "Read More ..." button.
4. Community & Leisure Highlight (Replaces Business Growth)
- Header: "Explore Your Coast" (or similar).
- Content: Dedicate a brief 2-sentence block to rotating highlights from your Community and Leisure sections. For example, one month could drive traffic to essential services like rubbish collections or bus timetables, while the next month could feature local walks, parks, clubs, or schools. Include a clear button linking directly to that specific directory section.
5. Latest Local Events
- Header: "Latest Local Events ..."
- Content: Include a sentence linking directly to your local events calendar. Follow this with a 2-column side-by-side highlight of two major upcoming events, using square images, short descriptions, and "Read More ..." buttons.
6. Upcoming Features Teaser
- Header: "Upcoming Features:"
- Content: Maintain the side-by-side square image layout to visually tease the next 1-2 features (e.g., The Golden Years).
7. The Local Business Voucher Draw
- Header: "CONGRATULATIONS! To our local winner this month -"
- Content: Announce the winner of the local business voucher at the footer. Highlight which local business the voucher is for (e.g., "Jane Doe has won a $50 voucher to [Local Cafe Name]!"). This not only trains readers to scroll to the bottom but also acts as a subtle, free shout-out for the featured local business.
Formatting Reminder: As with the business newsletter, keep all paragraph text strictly to 2-3 short sentences (approx. 40 words max) per item. Rely on your images and "Read More" buttons to maintain a quick 2 to 3-minute reading experience.
