Making Of Our Christmas Templates
Here’s how our Christmas template is put together in more detail.
What makes this template so quick to assemble are the building blocks you can just drag and drop to the email.
The Header
The Main Body
For better readability and conversion, we’ve used a ‘z’ pattern layout at the beginning.
It moves the readers’ eyes in an alternating way between image and text and finishes with a call to action.
To break up the email, we’ve added an image with a text overlay element, which also brings an additional dynamic to the whole layout.
To finish off, we used the classic image above text layout. This is ideal to showcase all your offers or specials at one glance.
