Newsletters for Heating Oil
and Propane Companies
|
| |
|
No other promotional tool can accomplish so much. Done well, your oil heat newsletter will personalize your company, build customer relationships, promote sales of oil heating equipment and services and generate referrals. It can help you add monthly payment accounts and convert will-calls to automatic delivery. Most of all, it dramatically improves customer relations and increases the perceived value of your company, enabling you to retain more customers at higher margins.

| |
| Why does this matter? |
| With today’s high oil prices customers are less loyal, more demanding and more price conscious than ever. Consequently, your success depends not just on delivering excellent service, but in making sure customers understand the real value you offer. That's where we come in. The newsletters we write for you will: |
| • |
bring your company to life for your customers, giving them a better understanding of who you are, what you stand for and why you offer better value than your competitors. |
| • |
tell your side of the story about price spikes, tank concerns, environmental worries and any other issues. |
| • |
help you market all services and products you sell, from monthly payment plans and price protection programs to furnaces, water heaters, air conditioning systems ... you name it. |
| • |
drive home the benefits of using heating oil vs. other fuels. |
| • |
point out the dangers of dealing with discounters and reinforce the value of your service. |
| • |
create a vehicle for positive interaction with your customers. |

Lots of options. We can create newsletters for you in two, three or four colors, and add inserts or business reply cards. We can customize all four pages, or let you take advantage of our shared inside pages. If it's possible, we can do it.
Personal account manager. We provide you with a dedicated account manager who helps you determine the best strategy and article plan for each newsletter. They give you ideas that work and make sure you achieve your objectives.
Turnkey operation. We can handle everything from copy and design to actual mailing.
Leads. We can offer you many proven ways to generate leads and get the response you’re looking for.
