Accessing the Email Editor

  • The editor is available on desktop devices for optimal usability.

Using Email Templates

  1. Load a Template:

    • Click the "Load Template" button in the email editor.

    • Browse a selection of professionally designed templates.

  2. Select and Apply:

    • Click on a template to load it into the editor.

    • The template becomes the starting point for your email - you can fully customize its content, images, and layout.

  3. Customize to Fit Your Brand:

    • Change colors, fonts, and styles to match your branding.

    • Replace placeholder text and images with your own content.

  4. Reuse or Duplicate:

    • You can reuse your favorite templates across multiple messages or autoresponders.

    • Duplicate an existing email to use its layout as a base for new messages.

Editing Email Content

  • Text Editing: Click inside any text block to start editing. Use formatting tools to bold, italicize, or underline important points.

  • Adding Emoticons: Spice up your message with emoticons to make your emails more friendly and eye-catching.

  • Inserting Images: Use the image upload feature to add your own graphics, product photos, or banners.

  • Links and Buttons: Insert links or call-to-action buttons to guide readers to your website, landing page, or special offer.

Previewing Your Email

  • Click the eye icon at the top of the editor to preview how your email will appear on desktop and mobile devices.

  • Make sure all links, images, and formatting display correctly before saving your message.

Tips for Effective Email Design

  • Keep It Clean: Use plenty of white space and avoid clutter to make your message easy to read.

  • Highlight Key Information: Use headings, bullet points, and bold text for important details or offers.

  • Be Consistent: Use your logo, brand colors, and signature for a professional look.

  • Mobile Friendly: While the editor is designed for desktops, always preview your emails to ensure they look good on smaller screens.

Saving and Managing Your Templates

  • After editing, click "Save" to add your message to the autoresponder sequence.

  • You can always return to edit, duplicate, or delete your emails as your campaign evolves.
