What are the most relevant email design tips for email marketers?

The tips shared above are spot-on. Remember to keep the message simple and include enough call-to-action buttons for your audience to click and get information easily. Don’t make your reader work to understand your message. Constant Contact’s templates are great in that they have clean designs and easy to read fonts. Use them as a starting point.

Know your audience when designing your email. For our technical clients, our emails are designed very cleanly, our graphics provide technical information concisely and we include videos and downloadable brochures since we know those elements get the most response from our clients’ technical customers.

For some of our other clients, such as those in recreation or retail industries, we create emails for our clients that are colorful, with more images and easily digestible blocks of information. We sometimes incorporate small gifs for eye-catching effects. Gifs can be created in Canva (which Constant Contact links to) but they need to be used sparingly and need to be well executed.
