A community newsletter can do many things including helping to foster a greater feel of a true community and keeping your residents up to date with what’s going on where they live. At OccupancySolutions.com, we highly recommend starting a community newsletter, and we have some tips on how you can make sure yours is one that’s successful! A few tips on crafting your community newsletter are:

  • Talk about local events – Events in and around the community within your area are a great thing to showcase in your community newsletter. This can give residents a reason to open up your newsletter each month and look forward to what’s inside, and it can help your residents to know where they need to go to get out and have a little fun! 
  • Keep things consistent – Consistency is key in community newsletters, and you’ll want to make sure your residents know when and how to expect their newsletter. If you plan on a weekly newsletter, make sure it goes out every week on the same day and around the same time, and the same goes for if you choose to send out your newsletter monthly or bi-monthly as well. 
  • Go online – If you can’t quite make a print newsletter, you can also craft one online. With an online newsletter, you may even be able to time when your newsletters will be sent so all members of your community get their newsletter at the same time as one another, and the same time every week or month. 
  • Include your contact information – Within your newsletter, you’ll also want to include a contact email address or phone number that residents can use to reach you should they have any questions regarding the information you’ve put inside. 
  • Keep a community update section – Any updates, routine maintenance, or community events can be kept in a community update section, and this is a section that will be used to keep residents informed about what’s going on in your community specifically. 

With a community newsletter, you can give your residents a bit of a personal touch while also providing them with the information they need about your community and your area. By sending out your newsletter consistently, and filling it with useful information, it can really serve as a way to serve your community in a way that really shows how you care.
