No More Bland Newsletters – Create Your Corporate Newsletter with MS Word
Your corporate newsletter serves more than one purpose – it is a communications tool that provides information, announces events, acts as a reminder, offers instructions, advertises your brand, and much more.
Your newsletter can contain articles that inform your clients or potential customers about the latest changes or events. It can also encourage them to buy what you offer, educate them regarding different procedures, or simply promote your company and its products. However, the only way you can achieve any of these objectives is by getting your readers to actually go through your newsletter. For that, you need to design your newsletter in an attractive way.
However, if you’re planning to spend a large amount of money on hiring a professional, here’s a better solution: simply install Microsoft Word. Using this word processing software, you will be able to create an attractive-looking newsletter. All you need to do is download and customize any of the numerous newsletter templates available for Microsoft Word. Currently, you can choose from over 40 newsletter templates designed for Microsoft Word, such as the Real Estate newsletter, the Book Club newsletter/flyer, or the Business newsletter.
You can change the colors and images used in the templates, thus customizing your newsletter. To help you, Ashford Global IT (AGIT) offers its Microsoft Word: Level 2 course. The Microsoft Word: Level 2 course is an intermediate course that will teach you the following:
- How to handle data displayed in lists
- How to modify tables and charts
- How to customize formatting with existing styles and themes
- How to make your own custom styles
- Ways of modifying pictures in Microsoft Word documents
- Methods for creating customized graphic elements
- How to use templates to automate document creation
- How to use macros to automate common tasks
- Steps for mail merge
However, in order to be part of this one-day course, you should know how to perform basic procedures in Microsoft Word such as creating and formatting basic business documents. If you aren’t familiar with these skills, you can enroll in AGIT’s Microsoft Word: Level 1 course for beginners. Aside from the aforementioned skills, Level 1 will teach you how to add tables and graphics to documents. These skills are important for you to successfully customize a newsletter template.
All of Ashford Global IT’s Microsoft Word courses are group-paced and handled by skilled instructors. The institute emphasizes combining lectures with structured hands-on activities. Thus, you will be able to understand the software’s terms as well as operate the software, which in turn, will reflect on the quality of your upcoming newsletter. In addition, by opting for Ashford Global IT, you can choose to train at the institute’s campus in Orlando, Florida, or fly in its experts to lead a class at your organization.
