Be Concise &
Focus Your Message
Most people spend less than 15 seconds
reading marketing emails, so keep it short
and sweet, prioritizing your content from
top to bottom. Consider breaking multiple
messages into a series of emails.
Link out
If you have a lot of information to convey,
link to a page on your website (or someone
else's website) where subscribers can learn
more.
Use a hierarchy to
organize for quick reading
Headings & bullets divide content into sections
that are easy to understand.
Make room
Use plenty of white space to give your content
some breathing room and make your design
more approachable.
