More than 50% of emails are opened on mobile. These five responsive HTML email templates
are optimized for small screens and they look great in any inbox. They’ve been tested in Litmus
and are completely bulletproof.
Tip
After creating the email template, click the Responsive Design View icon at the top of the
workspace to see how the email looks on different screen sizes.
The only thing you can set in advance for a Slate template is the color of the call-to-action
button. Click the small colored square, right next to the field that holds the default color value, to
open the Color dialog and pick a color (see "Color Picker" on page310).
The color can be changed later; see "Colors" on page228.
Basic Email and Banded Email
The difference between Basic and Banded email is that the contents of a Basic email extend to
the email's margin, rather than to the edge of the window in which it is read, as the contents of
Banded emails do.
The Banded Email Action Template is a simple call-to-action email with a message, header
and a button linking to a website, such as an informational or landing page.
The Banded Email Invoice Template is an invoice with an optional Welcome message and
Pay Now button.
