We also highly recommend that your group keep an active group-administered mailing list to communicate with your members and alumni directly, on a more regular basis. Below are some best practices to consider and an example of an email from a common email marketing service: Mailchimp.

Best practices: 

• Email with a purpose: make sure there is a clear call-to-action (i.e. Learn More, RSVP, etc.)

• Utilize updated and approved logos for group

• Include pictures to help complement text

• Focus on using high quality photos vs. quantity of photos

• Provide information about upcoming events

• Use links to different parts of your club’s website in reminders and information (membership, events, scholarship, etc.)

• Less is more – keep written content concise

• Talk about more than just sports: utilize stories from the University and the Alumni Magazine as well

• Make sure there is an easy way to sign up for your mailing: include a link on your group’s website
