What We Provide

  • We will provide you with a couple of branded graphic header options, using the information you share with us on the form.
  • We'll share recommendations for fonts and colors that are in line with the Feinberg brand and best practices for newsletter content.

Newsletter Tools

We recommend these tools for email newsletters:

Adobe Creative Cloud Express

Free for those with a Northwestern University netID. You create an online, interactive newsletter, then share a link to the Adobe Creative Cloud Express newsletter via email.

  • Select “Log in with school account,” and you’ll be promoted to enter your Northwestern email address.
  • While entering your credentials, you may be prompt to either select a “Adobe ID” or an “Enterprise ID.”
  • Select “Enterprise ID,” and you should be redirected to enter your netID and password.

Visit the Adobe Creative Cloud Express site and view a sample newsletter.

Mailchimp or Constant Contact

You will need to set up your own account for these services, which may cost money, depending on your email frequency and number of recipients. Have a list of emails prepared. Both services track how many recipients opened the email.
