How to Create and Edit Email Templates for Your Campaigns

Build an email or SMS campaign in Business Manager by copying and editing a Cents Recommended template.

Written by Euri

Email templates give your Blasts and Journeys a polished, on-brand look. Start from a Cents-recommended template, build your own, or use AI to draft one, then reuse it in any campaign.
​

Use this if you want to design an email once and use it across your campaigns.


Before you start

  • Cents Accelerate is set up for your business.

  • (Recommended) Add your logo and colors under Marketing > Brand Kit so templates match your brand.


Steps

  • Go to My Stores > Marketing > Email Templates.

  • Open the Recommended Email Templates tab to browse templates designed by Cents, or click Create with AI to draft a new one.

  • Pick a template and add a copy to Your Email Templates.

  • Open your copy to edit the text, fonts, colors, layout, and images. Click Save.

  • Use the template when you create a Blast or a Journey email step.


Send from your own email address (optional)

Troubleshooting

  • Can't find Cents-Recommended Templates?
    They're now the Recommended Email Templates tab under Marketing > Email Templates.
    ​

  • Your email is stuck in "Retrying"?
    Remove any unsubscribe link you added by hand. Cents adds its own unsubscribe link automatically.
    ​

  • Formatting looks off for some customers?
    Some email apps display layouts differently. Send yourself a test and check it on your phone and computer.
    ​

  • Test emails land in spam?
    That's common for new senders. It improves as you send over several days, or you can set up a custom sending domain.
    ​

  • Your logo or colors aren't showing?
    Update your Brand Kit and save, then re-open the template.
