A couple of weeks back, I sent out a six question
survey to the email addresses of 320 folks and rally fans that I know. Thanks
to 'SurveyMonkey' for the free trial. I got over 90 responses which is regarded
by those who know better than me as an excellent response to a survey. That's
almost a 30% return, which is pretty damn good, as most folks are lucky if they
get a 10% return. Thus encouraged I am moving on to the next stage.
The plan is to produce and distribute (by email only) a weekly digest
of rallying news and interesting motoring snippets. This will not replace the
current website mag (for longer more detailed articles and reports) or the Blog
and Facebook presence (primarily for on-event reporting) but will complement
this current service.
Design will be kept simple, it won't have pages, just a list of newsy
items on a scroll-down format so folks can catch up on the move as well as at
their desks.
It will be published each Tuesday, or maybe Wednesday (I haven't
decided yet). It is not designed to replace or be in competition with any other
weekly newspaper or magazine, and will contain content of primary interest to
Scottish readers.
To give you an idea of what a weekly Bulletin might look like I have
prepared a sample version based on current news and events.
There will be a charge for this subscription-only email service, so
it's over to youse. Is this a goer, or not?
