Build editable MailChimp template #2274

Open corywatilo opened 3 years ago

corywatilo commented 3 years ago

I recently designed new email templates - both for transactional emails (for the product) and for marketing campaigns (more context).

After designing them, I used Beefree Pro to create the HTML.

The latest marketing template is what I put together for Array 1.29.0. (There's an easy export to Mailchimp, which I used to get the email out.)

This template that was exported to Mailchimp is not editable within Mailchimp (aside from a handful of tags Mailchimp seems to recognize automatically).

Goal

The end goal would be to have a template in Mailchimp where we can drag/drop blocks in Mailchimp that use these styles, without having to return to BeeFree to author each campaign.

Current status

The Array 1.29.0 email was about 80% of the way there, but wasn't isn't perfect. (See Figma mock linked at top for reference.)

Non-comprehensive list of to-dos

I quite like the articles and product itself on http://litmus.com which helps testing mails in different mail clients and lists typical issues between clients. Maybe you find it useful too
