Local Councils & Municipalities Tips & Best Practices

Make newsletters sound valuable, not bureaucratic

"5 things happening in your neighbourhood this month" is inviting. "Monthly Council Newsletter — February 2026" is ignorable.

Personalise by area when possible

"Road works on Smith Street starting Monday" is relevant to affected residents. Generic subject lines get ignored.

Test community event subject lines

"Free outdoor cinema this Saturday — BYO blanket" includes all the details residents need to decide in the subject line.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do councils improve email open rates?
Relevance and specificity. Segment by location and interest. Subject lines that mention the resident's suburb, street, or specific services they use get significantly higher open rates.
What subject line length works for council emails?
Keep subject lines under 50 characters for mobile. Front-load the most important information. "Rates due 28 Feb" is better than "A reminder about your upcoming rates payment".
Should councils use emojis in email subject lines?
Community event emails can use emojis sparingly. Formal communications (rates, planning, emergency) should not. Match the tone to the content.
