Issue #1

March 21st 2023

Welcome to the first issue of the D365 Marketing Weekly Newsletter!

So, what's it all about? I write about Dynamics 365 Marketing regularly on my website. However, so do many of my fellow contributors to the community and there is some fantastic content out there. There are also a ton of things going on outside of the D365 Marketing world that I think are important and useful to know about that relate to marketing and can provide value to a marketers day. I love reading the Power Platform Weekly and the Power Platform Dev Weekly newsletters, so thought this might be a good format for people interested specifically in Marketing. Here we go!

This one is SOOO cool and I can't wait for more people to find out about it. Microsoft Designer currently has a waitlist to join, but once you get access, I think it will be worth it. It uses AI to automatically generate images and social media content to use as part of your marketing efforts. Take a look!
