What is the best time to share your communication? 🤔
Have you ever wondered why some of your messages and posters about vitality get very little response? The answer may lie in the 'when' and 'at what time' of your communication. At NewU, we believe in the power of timing, especially when it comes to effective communication about various vitality initiatives within your organisation. Our experience with more than 250 partners has given us valuable insights on the optimal time for sharing internal communications on health and vitality.

The ideal days 🎉
- Monday: The start of the working week, perfect for motivating employees. Employees are often more receptive to new information after the weekend.
- Tuesday: Employees are less overloaded with work, which ensures more attention to your message. There are also less full mailboxes, therefore messages stand out more.
- Thursday: Next week's planning is already underway, perfect to include your vitality initiative.
Good timing is crucial for successful communication. Experiment with Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays for optimal results
Days to avoid 🛑
- Wednesday: Often a 'dip day' in the middle of the working week. Employees are still fully engaged in completing work or setting up new projects.
- Friday: Attention shifts to the weekend, leading to reduced focus. It would be a shame if your message ends up at the bottom of the pile.
So what is the ideal time? ⏲️
- Morning (10:00 - 11:00) After the morning rush: Messages are more likely to be read and remembered.
- Early Afternoon (14:00) After lunch break: New energy boost makes employees more receptive to information.
By taking into account the best days and times for communication, you ensure more engagement with your team. Good timing is crucial for successful communication. Experiment with Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays and discover the power of optimal timing!
