To purchase e-newsletter software
December 20, 2024 Corporate Director (Law & Governance) & Monitoring Officer (Officer) Approved View on council websiteFull council record
Purpose
Officer decision to purchase e-newsletter
software ‘e-shot’ supplied by Forfront Ltd on a 1-year
contract with the option to extend for a further +1 year.
The software allows TDC to send out direct electronic
communications to those signed up to it.
Email communications are standard practice for the vast majority of
organisations, including local authorities, and can cover a range
of topics such as news, vacancies, committee updates, and any
number of service-specific bulletins.
In our increasingly digital age almost everyone has an email
address, with most having it at their fingertips on a smartphone,
making this vital communications channel.
It is proposed TDC would begin with a news newsletter and from
there build a portfolio up.
While this would require careful exploration and analysis, there is
the potential for RoI; for example, through reduced missed waste
and increased recycling credits.
