Best practices

Writing effective templates

Clear subject lines — Recipients should know what the email is about. Personal tone — Even templates should feel personal with variables. Call to action — Tell recipients what to do next. Mobile friendly — Keep paragraphs short for mobile readers.

Template maintenance

Review regularly — Update outdated information. Test variables — Verify variables resolve correctly. Get feedback — Ask team members what templates they need. Archive unused — Remove templates no one uses.
