I checked the stats for Mailchimp and apparently 73 of 179 have opened the email (40.8%) compared to a non-profit industry average of 20.9%. There are, so far, 37 clicks (24.8%) compared to an average 2.3%, so we're well above industry average on both counts.</span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1515725770686_33678" dir="ltr"><span><br></span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1515725770686_33678" dir="ltr"><span id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1515725770686_33952">Adding the newsletter as an attachment increases the bandwidth of the email and the chance that it is going to be considered spam.

<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1515725770686_33912">Do we have any way of telling how many people got to the web site and then to the NL there to view or DL it?</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1515725770686_33913"> </div>
<div>Perhaps we should ask people at the next few GM's whether and how they get the NL and try to see what's going on. I realize that people may not have been reading the hard copy NL, but I know I have a tendency put off going to a link for a document and might never get around to it, whereas if it's an attachment, I get it right away.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Meanwhile, at Steering could we discuss possibility of Emailing the NL as an attachment so people actually get it without having to go to link and DL it? When we mailed hard copy NL we at least knew it got there. </div>
