Newsletter Volume 1
Hi friends,
I’m excited to introduce our first-ever monthly newsletter, packed full of marketing and education resources to help you build awareness, engagement, and revenue. Let’s be real, though-- we all get way too many newsletters that don’t consistently deliver value. To make sure that doesn’t happen, we’ll continue to adjust our newsletter to ensure it’s as helpful as possible to you. Reach out to me directly via email or Twitter with any thoughts you have.
If you’re receiving this, you’re either a current or former client, someone who we’ve collaborated with, or we’ve talked about doing work together. However you got on this list, know that we consider you part of our extended family. With that in mind and before we get to our resources, I’d like to share with you two personal things:
My father, Robert L. Leoni, 75 years young, passed away on August 7 from the coronavirus. I want to thank so many of you who reached out, sent flowers, and donated to our GoFundMe. I especially want to thank my team who picked up slack and continue to be nothing but incredibly supportive.
Less than two months later, I welcomed a new niece, Ava Elana Leoni, to my family on Friday, September 18. What a name! At 8 lbs 14 oz and just over 20,” she is already a powerful force to be reckoned with. Watch out world! :)
Thanks for being part of the LCG family. I hope you find our newsletter helpful.
As we get ready for Q2 (where has the time gone!?), use this planner to help create valuable, timely, and relevant content. It includes events, holidays, famous birthdays, and conferences aligned with education and learning for the rest of 2021.
