For the past 12 months Bridgend County Borough Councils staff have started to make the most of their business directory data by using the
in-built bulk email system to send out monthly e-newsletters to all their members they have an email address for.
In addition to this, they have linked each news item summary in the e-newsletter to news, events & tenders that they have added to their business directory promotional module.
"This has enabled us to keep businesses more up-to-date with programmes, initiatives and funding relevant to them and also local good news stories. The facility is straight forward and easy to use and the e-mails go out instantly. This has resulted in increased traffic to our business directory and web pages. I would certainly encourage other authorities to utilise this very useful tool."
Nicola Fedyszyn, Corporate Marketing Officer Bridgend County Borough Council
