Can someone tell me how to make an e-flyer? I'm talking about the email flyers that display like a photograph in the body of an email.

Thanks

Several ways to that:

1. Sites like flyerus.com, mydailyflyer.com, alwayskit.com; you use their template and pricing varies by region, MLS, county, state, etc.

2. Sharperagent.com and imprev.com are both annual subscriptions and limited to 1000 addresses, you use their templates.

3. I believe creating your flyer in something like MS Publisher and converting it to HTML code, but you need to check with your email provider as to how many emails you can send at once without being blacklisted as a spammer.

4. Try a company like Constant Contact, your email database as large as you want, your flyer and price varies by how many you send.

Hope that helps!

Thanks jbt. I was only asking how to create the flyer.
I'm aware of the many companies that offer the service and I am also aware of spamming regulations, that's a very important point .
So you're saying that MS Publisher is the way to do it?

I just tried this in MS Publisher, which I use to create my flyers. I saved it as a PDF to maintain the clarity and integrity of the file. I then opened it in Corel Paint (Adobe Photoshop should work too) and then saved it as a jpeg. I then started a new email (I use firefox) and inserted it the jpeg flyer as an image. It should work in Outlook too.

Thanks jbt, I'll try that.

If you don't have publisher, use Open Office - their Draw program is very similar to Publisher. It's free.

You can save to PDF too.
