A master template is the foundation for all your emails. It helps you:
- maintain a consistent style,
- save time preparing emails,
- boost conversion through a well-thought-out structure.
In this article, we'll explain how to create a master template that actually sells, not just one that "looks nice."
What is a master template?
It's a universal layout in which:
- your brand colors, fonts, and logo are already built in,
- the blocks are thought through (header, text, images, buttons, footer),
- there's room for dynamic content (like promotions or product selections).
You set it up once, and after that, you simply fill it with content.
Step 1. Define the structure
- Header: logo + navigation (if needed).
- Main block: banner + main offer.
- Text blocks: description, benefits, details.
- Buttons: calls to action (CTAs).
- Footer: contacts, links, unsubscribe.
Tip: use one CTA per email — it should be the main focus.
Step 2. Set up the visual elements
- Choose your brand colors.
- Choose your fonts (standard ones supported in email are best).
- Prepare logos, icons, and decorative elements.
In Letteros, you can build the design directly in the editor and save it as a template.
Step 3. Add space for variable content
A converting template needs to be flexible:
- space for a banner that changes every week,
- space for dynamic products,
- a block for personal promotions.
Don't make everything static — the template should feel alive.
Step 4. Check responsiveness
- Open the template on mobile and desktop.
- Check whether the text is readable and the buttons are easy to tap.
- Test both long and short text — the template shouldn't "break."
Step 5. Save it in the editor
In Letteros, you can:
- save the template as a master template,
- delegate its use to other team members,
- update the template centrally (for example, during a rebrand).
What sets a converting template apart?
✔ A clear focus on a single offer.✔ Transparent CTAs.✔ A minimum of unnecessary details.✔ Thoughtful UX (readability, buttons, structure).✔ Mobile adaptation.
