Inside Story Headline


This story can fit 100-150 words.

This is a good place to write a small story featuring a new product, service, or program youre offering.

Remember to make the information useful to your reader. Explain any features that dis-
tinguish what you offer from that of your competition.

You may also want to describe the history of the product, service, or program or highlight
persons responsible for its development.

A good source of information for your story might be press releases, sales or market re-
ports, or brochures you have created.

It is important to maintain the integrity of this publication as a newsletter, rather than a


means of advertisement. In other words, your readers should feel that youre informing
them about what you offer, as opposed to selling it to them.
