Draft email content announcing Search

[mxk0]

Summary

To generate traffic for search, we're going to email users an announcement about the new feature. This plan is in #2398.

This ticket is for the content we'll send users in the email. It should give them a very brief background on Simpler, explain what our Search aims to do (simpler search experience, improved relevancy, etc.) and provide a button/link to navigate to the feature at https://simpler.grants.gov/search

Acceptance criteria

• Email content drafted

@mxk0 @margaretspring Is there a precedent for emails that I can take a look at for format, length, etc.?

Should I use this template: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RuQXQBpydxBRFLTBMnUyWVNqyJHlfD-n/edit

Are we interested in soliciting feedback about the new search?

Once this content is ready, we'll need to submit it for approval by Grant.gov Comms (#2401). They will need at least 2 weeks notice.

@michellemin-nava - I'll work with you through this process. Please confirm that you have access to Templates, you can also explore folder: Simpler.Grants.gov. You should have received an email about access to the BPS Sharepoint a week or so back. Please confirm if you've received that (if so, you should be able to accept to template for email content approval)

[michellemin-nava]

@margaretspring, confirming I have access to Templates and the BPS Sharepoint generally.

@michellemin-nava the draft is looking great! Can I please have edit access to the doc so I can reply to your comments? 🙏

[michellemin-nava]

@mxk0, yes, edit access given!

[mxk0]

@michellemin-nava sorry for the slow follow up. Just left you a few comments in the doc!

[michellemin-nava]

@margaretspring and @mxk0, what is the preferred way to loop in Emily Ianacone to pre-approve the draft? Email, Simpler Grants Slack, or direct-tag in Google Docs?

[mxk0]

Sorry @michellemin-nava, missed your question the other day. I think email or Simpler Slack. @margaretspring do you have any tips?
