NewsLetter for January 1, 2006 Sponsored By Price for Next Issue: $2.00 Hi [FIRSTNAME], As we enter 2006, I am going to re-institute a periodic NewsLetter to the members of Team 4 Income. Instead of the weekly series I had back in 2003 and 2004, it is now going to come out the 1st and 15th of every month. To be honest, I no longer have the time to devote a portion of each week to drafting and mailing one. The 'final' format is still in development, however, some of the sections you see in this first NewsLetter will always be here. What I have in mind are the following: A 'Sponsored By' banner - This spot will be for sale on a first-come, first-served basis. The price for the next issue will always be included, and will be computed as $0.001 times the current number of subscribers. For this first issue, it is based on the fact that the next issue will have at least 2,000 subscribers. A note from me that will cover whatever topic I think is (or should be) of the most interest to the members at the time. It may have to do with changes to the T4I site, or about a new or coming opportunity that could benefit all members. A 'T4I Member's Recommendation' banner - This will be a banner that one of your fellow members has given me for the program/site they are currently promoting. In each issue, I hope to have some type of Contest, where the winning member gets to submit their banner for the next issue. A Spot of Humor - I will attempt to find something that will strike your Funny Bone for each issue. If you have something you'd like to share with the T4I membership, feel free to send it to me. A Bit of Marketing - I hope to include here an good article on marketing techniques, info on a tool that is useful, sites that will assist in your marketing, or anything else that I feel has at least a 'tinge' of promotional value to it. Banner Contest - This is where I'll have some sort of riddle or other type of 'test'. The member that replies first with what I (as the sole and final judge) determine to be the correct answer will be allowed to submit their banner for the spot below in the next issue. In the future, I don't expect that my note will be quite this long, but I obviously had a lot more to cover in this initial issue of the NewsLetter. Let's Make 2006 the Best Year Yet for Each of Us!!! Steve Gingras Owner/Admin of Team 4 Income T4I Member's Recommendation A Spot of Humor A first grade teacher had twenty-five students in her class and she presented each child in her class the first half of a well known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you.
