SNAPS!

SNAPS! This week go out to You and I for keeping up a positive attitude and making it through to May!

Meet some team players...

Wade Caves
Wade is the head rep from TLHC who has put in a lot of long hours into this organization. As next year’s President, we are guaranteed to see some amazing things. Here’s some fun facts about this awesome person:
- Favorite Place to eat on the Ave: University Teriyaki. Anything spicy, I guess. - Why did you get involved in RHSA: Honestly? It was purely an accident. I was intending to run for an ASUW Senator position, but I didn't want to run against my roommate. So, I decided to go for a position that was actually uncontested -- RHSA rep.
- Major: neurobiology. I love the cerebral cortex, man. - Favorite thing about your hall: Probably how quiet it is. Lander's a party, but I'm lucky that I get to come home and sleep in Terry. - Favorite Husky Sport: volleyball. it's hot.
- Favorite program so far this year: The American Idol party in Haggett Dining. Loved it. Actually, though, it's the after party that's always best. The exec board gets a bit ridiculous after the program's finished. You should hang back and watch some time. - When you are at the movies, do you prefer candy or popcorn: I get candy, but the date gets popcorn. And then we share, of course. It's beautiful.
Justin Sharrett
Justin is the head rep from HA! who has been an amazing RHSA Rep, as well as the chair for CAC. We always look forward to hearing his “Boo Hiss!” Here’s some more information about this fantabulous person:
- Favorite Place to eat on the Ave: Thaiger Room
- Why did you get involved in RHSA: There was free pizza at the first HA! meeting.
- Major: Economics - Favorite thing about your hall: Hansee people are basically the best kind of people in the whole wide world.
- Favorite Husky Sport: Volleyball - Favorite program so far this year: Haunted House
- When you are at the movies, do you prefer candy or popcorn: I prefer to smuggle an assortment of pop and candy into the theater using the sleeves of my coat and every single one of my pockets.

Enjoy your snacks!

One benefit of using your newsletter as a promotional tool is that you can reuse content from other marketing materials, such as press releases, market studies, and reports.
While your main goal of distributing a newsletter might be to sell your product or service, the key to a successful newsletter is making it useful to your readers.
A great way to add useful content to your newsletter is to develop and write your own articles, or include a calendar of upcoming events or a special offer that promotes a new product.
You can also research articles or find “filler” articles by accessing the World Wide Web. You can write about a variety of topics but try to keep your articles short.
Much of the content you put in your newsletter can also be used for your Web site. Microsoft Publisher offers a simple way to convert your newsletter to a Web publication. So, when you’re finished writing your newsletter, convert it to a Web site and post it.

This story can fit 75-125 words.
Selecting pictures or graphics is an important part of adding content to your newsletter.
Think about your article and ask yourself if the picture supports or enhances the message you’re trying to convey. Avoid selecting images that appear to be out of context.
Microsoft Publisher includes thousands of clip art images from which you can choose and import into your newsletter. There are also several tools you can use to draw shapes and symbols.
Once you have chosen an image, place it close to the article. Be sure to place the caption of the image near the image.

This story can fit 100-150 words.
The subject matter that appears in newsletters is virtually endless. You can include stories that focus on current technologies or innovations in your field.
You may also want to note business or economic trends, or make predictions for your customers or clients.
If the newsletter is distributed internally, you might comment upon new procedures or improvements to the business. Sales figures or earnings will show how your business is growing.

This story can fit 175-225 words.
If your newsletter is folded and mailed, this story will appear on the back. So, it’s a good idea to make it easy to read at a glance.
A question and answer session is a good way to quickly capture the attention of readers. You can either compile questions that you’ve received since the last edition or you can summarize some generic questions that are frequently asked about your organization.
A listing of names and titles of managers in your organization is a good way to give your newsletter a personal touch. If your organization is small, you may want to list the names of all employees.
If you have any prices of standard products or services, you can include a listing of those here. You may want to refer your readers to any other forms of communication that you’ve created for your organization.
You can also use this space to remind readers to mark their calendars for a regular event, such as a breakfast meeting for vendors every third Tuesday of the month, or a biannual charity auction.
If space is available, this is a good place to insert a clip art image or some other graphic.
