Here are a few ideas of things we like to add to our December newsletters:
-
Run a holiday photo contest (or use your newsletter to promote the in-person competition): Whether your whole staff is in-office, remote, or hybrid, use your holiday employee newsletter to promote a fun and festive competition for your employees! This could be the best gingerbread house, best gift-wrapping skills, or best holiday lights display, to name a few.
- Create a giving tree: To set up a physical giving tree in your office, you just attach tags in place of ornaments, each representing a charity or organization in need. Employees can then select a tag from the tree and fill the stated need.
- Spotlight the variety of holiday traditions celebrated by your employees: Ask your team about any holiday traditions they have; whether they’re super traditional or totally unique, sharing stories and photos of how your team celebrates the season is one way to create heart-warming and original content for your holiday employee newsletter.

Add this section to your employee newsletter!

Create a local holiday event calendar
|
One of our favorite ways to add personalization to your all-company employee newsletter is to create a section to highlight local events! It’s the perfect way to create a more relevant content experience for each of your team members.
Bonus: It’s really easy to segment your communications by location with an internal email tool like Workshop; we sync with your HRIS or payroll info so that all of your employee lists and locations are managed automatically. You can display content within an email that’s based on the employee’s list membership, making it easy to create variations of a local events calendar to display to employees based on their location.
