Updated over a week ago

You can create different email templates to save time when building your campaigns.


From the Message Templates tab > Email

Steps to create an email template:

  1. From the Campaigns tab, click on Message templates.

  2. In the Email section, click Create a template.

  3. Select an existing template if needed.

    • Name your template (max 50 characters).

    • Enter your email subject (max 78 characters).

    • Write the content (max 8,000 characters).

  4. Click Confirm to save your template.

Customize text formatting

The formatting toolbar allows you to adjust the style and layout of your email.

Text formatting

Available options:

  • Text size: small, medium, large, extra large

  • Bold, italic, underline

  • Text color (14 available colors)

Layout

Available options:

  • Alignment: left, center, right

  • Bullet list

Insertion

Available options:

  • Emojis

  • Remove formatting

  • Hyperlink: insert, edit, or remove (not clickable in the editor)

  • Attachment: up to 4 files, maximum 20 MB each

  • Variable: first name, last name, company

💡 Organization tip: Link the template name to its campaign to stay organized.

  • Example: for a “2 Emails” campaign targeting dentists in Paris, you can name your template: Email 2 – Follow-up Dentists Paris.
    This would correspond to the second follow-up email, sent if the first one remains unanswered.
