Stop treating Dark Mode like an afterthought with Annett Forcier28 May 202600:48:36

Dark mode isn't coming. It's already here. And if you're treating it as an afterthought, your logo is disappearing, your brand colors are shifting, and your carefully designed email looks like it was built by someone else entirely.


Annett Forcier, founder of EmailBoutique and email design systems consultant, joins us to break down why dark mode is a design problem before it's ever a code problem, and how she delivers the bad news to clients before a single template gets built.

What can we learn from retail email? | Webinar08 Feb 202200:47:31

2020 has thrown the biggest of wrenches into just about everything—including email marketing strategies and tactics. For retailers, who rely on email to get people in the door (both physically and digitally), it’s left them reeling. Pandemics, political and social unrest, and low-level anxiety are pretty much everywhere… there’s not much that inspires people to part with their money.


But—even as the definition of successful retail email marketing has changed—some retailers have found success speaking to all of those challenges. And they’ve won customers over in the process.


That’s why we teamed up with our friends at Litmus and National Geographic to review some of our favorite retail emails from the past year. 


We look at:

• The elements of a really good retail email

• How successful brands are designing and writing for 2020

• Opportunities for brands to improve the anxious overwhelmed lives of modern consumers

• How anyone in email—not just retailers—can use the same techniques to create better, more engaging email campaigns


Want to see how your emails match up to the competition? Curious how you can start sending better emails with the tools you already have? Eager to grow your business while sticking to your values and respecting your subscribers in the process? This webinar is for you.

Do you map out every single step of a trip right down to the rest stops, or are you up for randomly stopping off at a local diner for some good and greasy food to pull an all-night drive? (Yeah, us too.) While emails should be more planned out than late-night road trip stops, you can easily customize your message by pulling in dynamic content. Andy McCutcheon, email marketing manager at Vacasa, walks us through some customized email templates with built-in styles, classes, and our favorite: live text.

If an email is sent and no one added alt text, does it reach the inbox? Descriptive alt text is just one thing to keep in mind to serve up accessible emails. We talk mixtapes and Macintosh with Avi Goldman, founder of Parcel and curator of Email Resources, putting these e-commerce emails to the accessibility test in Parcel’s interface.

112. - Postable | Feedback Friday23 Apr 202100:16:52

Do you remember your first letter? Maybe you found a pen pal across the world. Or you just got a letter from some guy in a green striped shirt with a bowl cut and wondered who it was from. We chatted about e-commerce emails from Postable with Emily Ryan, a Mailchimp Pro Partner, owner of the agency Westfield Creative, and taco lover.

111. - Postmates | Feedback Friday16 Apr 202100:12:54

Watch on YouTube https://youtu.be/9hCa3VN3HI8


Over the past year, we've been ordering a LOT of food for delivery with DoorDash, UberEats, and Postmates. But let's be honest: Domino's is the OG of food delivery. They don't even need a delivery app. You can tweet your picks, place an order in Slack, or, you know, pick up the phone and call them.


While it might not be the #1 pizza delivery service, Postmates is turning up the heat with gamification in its promotional emails. From Pac-Man spinoff GIFs to mysterious blurry images, we're covering some really good Postmates emails on this episode of Feedback Friday. Order something good for yourself while you're watching. (If you can't finish the food, we can help with that.)

What subscriber data should you include when sending personalized fitness emails? Remind your subscribers of their goals, like running 5 miles or drinking 8 glasses of water a day. Show their progress and how they measure up with the community by pulling data like calories burned, hours of sleep, and exercise activity. Personalized emails can inspire your audience to continue working toward their goals.

107. - Would You Rather | Feedback Friday19 Mar 202100:30:47

What opportunities are there when sending survey emails? Test including the first question of your survey as a series of buttons in your email to increase survey participation and completion. The low friction action of making the selection in the email sets folks up to be more willing to make their first choice and, having already made their first choice, complete the rest of the survey.

1. Email can be an extension of a product. High-quality email design can give the customer an experience, setting the expectation for a high-quality product.


2. Imagery showcases how the product is made and the quality it's made with. Include product photography and visual content to show the product and entice your audience to buy the product.


3. Use A/B testing with your email imagery to see what works for your audience, like including photos with people in the email vs. photos of the product by itself.


BONUS Use a GIF to preview a video of the product in action. Keep the GIF light on size (aim for 600KB) to keep the email light.

1. Show how to use a website or product with simple images and text in an onboarding email. Follow a simple hierarchy, such as using one heading, then a slightly smaller heading style to talk about the product contents, and then readable, less contrasting paragraph text with more info.


2. Be careful in using too much contrasting text and colored boxes all in one email. If there’s too much going on at once, this can be difficult to read and even distracting for your audience.


3. Driving your audience toward one simple CTA can help keep a giveaway email focused. Try using one headline, one image, and one CTA.

📋 TL;DW key takeaways from this episode:


1. Help your audience focus on a specific goal per email. With e-commerce, keep the design-focused and simple with the combination of design colors and product photography.


2. Invite your customers to make a buying decision on a landing page rather than trying to immediately convert them in an email. Bring in personalized, dynamic content to speak directly to your audience.


3. If you’re sending an all-image email, think about accessibility. Make sure text is easy to read on mobile, include alt-text, and be consistent.

On this very special episode, we're looking at - count 'em - 17 different emails. From the Golden State Warriors to the New York Red Bulls, the American Heart Association, Dave Ramsey looking for some pizzazz, and even that fan-freaking-tastic BBC email from Action Rocket.


Grab a cup of coffee or tea, bring the whole package of Oreos, and hang with us while we dive into these fan-submitted emails. We're sharing what's working, what to improve, and - you guessed it - how to make these good emails really good.

📝 Transcript https://reallygoodemails.com/school/feedback-friday-episode-100


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


📋 TL;DW key takeaways from this episode:


1) An RGE classic: Think of design golf when you're creating your emails. Aim for the lowest design score with the fewest amount of design differences. Simplify your design and reduce everything to the lowest common denominator. Use clear, bold headings, clear CTAs, simple imagery, and put the focus on the email copywriting.


2) Small text, bold body copy, and heavy padding can be hard to read. Make important text easy to see.


3) Moving between left and center-aligned elements can be distracting. Pick one and stick with it.


4) If you're writing long-form email content, use live text. That gives you more flexibility with the look and feel of the email, and the size of your font on mobile. An image-only email is a lot to download, whereas live text scales to be readable on a phone. You can even throw in a table of contents and guide your audience through the email. Make sure you're writing content that people want to read.


*BONUS* People will read your emails like a billboard - they've got seconds to read the email and figure out the job it's doing for them. Don't tell...show! "Don't tell me you're funny. Tell me a joke."

Bringing influencer marketing into emails with Jimmy John's | Feedback Friday22 Jan 202100:17:45

Get paired with a marketer to see how your strategy will work in the emfluence Marketing Platform. https://more.emfluence.com/really-good-emails 


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


📋 TL;DW key takeaways from this episode:


1. Collaborate with online communities, like influencers and content creators, to bring messages outside of social and into an email, websites, and even TV.


2. Wondering what flavor or product you should lead into your email with? Ask your audience. Getting feedback from your audience gives you honest input from the people using your products.


3. Email is a personal, one-to-one connection. Partnering with influencers to make that connection can help you curate your email content with fewer ads than social media.

--------------


📋 TL;DW key takeaways from this episode:


1. Watch your email size and think about who’s your audience. Your email team should decide together: What's the limit with the email? What's the bar? Can you achieve the intensity you’re aiming for with a smaller email? Make sure the email (and email size) serves the audience.


2. Check your analytics before creating something new, and check-in with your audience. Ask all of your subscribers OR ask a select group of subscribers how they feel about a new design you’re testing out. The more you get to know your audience, the closer of a relationship you’ll have with them and you’ll earn their loyalty toward your brand.


3. Talk with your email team to decide, what's the objective of the email? How can you incorporate that objective into the email copywriting and design? Own it. Maintain your brand uniqueness. Refine your typography and design styles to dial that in. Fewer changes = less friction. Be consistent.


*BONUS* Use as much live text as possible in your emails and in CTA buttons for the best accessibility and design experience.

Guiding clients through design systems with Fundrise | Feedback Friday01 Jan 202100:18:06

How do you educate clients on the world of email while building a template that they can easily update? This week we go behind the scenes with Anne Tomlin from Emails Y’All to learn how she builds design systems and customizes client emails.

📧 View live Fundrise emails https://reallygoodemails.com/fundrise 


📝 Transcript https://reallygoodemails.com/school/feedback-friday-fundrise


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


📋 TL;DW key takeaways from this episode:


1. Start with a base template to build the foundation of an email design system for the client. You (or the client) can use the design system to easily add or remove modules and change the template to fit their branding. This saves everyone time since you’ve already coded the template.


2. When clients send you email assets, check out the file contents ASAP to decide if this will be a simple project with a quick turnaround, or if it will be a more involved and time-consuming project. Set realistic expectations.


3. Send test emails to get feedback from the client on the design, accessibility, interactivity, etc. If the client pushes back on something that you don’t agree with (like using a responsive template), coach the client as much as you can with the facts. Educate them, but if they still don’t agree, then don't force anything on them.


*BONUS* Figma can be a good alternative to Photoshop or Sketch since it uses slick design, prototype, and code view panels. There’s a learning curve with Figma, but you don’t have to interact with the tool as much once you’ve got it down.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


📋 TL;DW key takeaways from this episode:


1. Use a consistent color scheme and text hierarchy as actions to grab the reader's attention. Explain the who, what, when, where, why, and how, and show your audience what they should do next.


2. When you create a design system, you’re using your emails in a consistent way where you can still have variation but you don't have to go back to the drawing board for every single email. Build the email, let it sit for a day, and come back to it. You might think of a different way of handling the information, and then you can change up the content.


3. In image-only emails, make sure alt-text connects with the images so assistive devices can read it. Make sure the text on mobile is large enough to be readable. The more that we push the tech of email, the better our industry will get.

📝 Transcript https://reallygoodemails.com/school/feedback-friday-adobe


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


📋 TL;DW key takeaways from this episode:


1. When you're laying out the email, make sure the contrast is high enough that you can read the content on desktop and mobile. Be careful with thin-weighted fonts. Make the font size large enough for the reader to easily scan the text on any device.


2. Don’t include your full legal policies in the email footer. Instead, link to landing pages with the legal content. Talk to your legal team about this. Legal content in the footer can feel like the content is about the company instead of the reader. Remove any obstacles that aren’t serving the audience.


3. GIFs can show off what's possible. Add GIFs with just a few frames and smaller file sizes (ideally 500kb) to keep the email light and easy on the loading time.


BONUS: If you don't have enough of a design pattern to indicate a link without color, work with your formatting for accessibility purposes. Underline the text, consider semi-bold text, and/or add a symbol to indicate a link (ex: single right-pointing angle quotation mark).

📝 Transcript https://reallygoodemails.com/school/feedback-friday-public-rec

📋 TL;DR key takeaways from this episode:


1. Show real people using the products so your audience can connect with your message and what you’re selling.


2. Use live text instead of all-images to make text easy to read and accessible across devices


3. Make sure the hero image adds value. What’s the problem you're solving? Make the design feel unique, less blocky, so the images pop out and bring life to the email's visual aspects.


BONUS: If you’re thinking about adding a CTA to the hero image, test it to see what works best for your brand and your product. If you add a CTA too early, people might miss the rest of the email.

📋 TL;DW key takeaways from this episode:



1. Lead into the email with a crisp photo to showcase product characteristics.



2. Keep the CTAs focused, and run a split test to try serving up different promotions. Target one deal in Email A. Run two deals in Email B. Keep an eye on which email performs best and see what you learn.



3. Balance the CTAs and product photography. If you’re showcasing a variety of products, spotlight the main CTA at the top of the email, and make the rest of the CTAs secondary.



*BONUS*: Underline text CTAs. Make it clear that they’re links, or change up the verbiage so each CTA is different. See if that helps drive sales.
