Overview

Build once, reuse across all your campaigns.

Email templates are reusable HTML email designs that you can load into any campaign. They ensure consistent branding across all your communications and save time when creating new campaigns.

Creating a Template

Write HTML with a live preview.

Open the template editor

Go to Marketing > Email Templates and click New Template.

Set the details

Enter a name, choose a category (General, Announcement, Feature Update, Newsletter, Promotional), and optionally set a default subject line.

Write the HTML

Enter your email HTML in the left panel. The right panel shows a live preview that updates as you type. Use the Insert Merge Tag buttons to add personalisation tokens.

Save

Click Save Template. It's now available to load in any campaign.

Tip

Email clients (Outlook, Gmail, etc.) have limited CSS support. Stick to inline styles and table-based layouts for best compatibility.

System Templates

Pre-built templates included with TempClock.

TempClock comes with four system email templates, ready to use:

Product Announcement

Clean layout for announcing new features or company news

Feature Update

Highlight a specific feature with bullet-point benefits and a CTA button

Monthly Newsletter

Multi-section layout with What's New, Tips, and Coming Soon sections

Promotional Offer

System templates are read-only — you cannot edit or delete them. To customise one, load it into a campaign and modify the content there, or copy its HTML into a new template.

Using Templates in Campaigns

Load a template when composing a campaign.

When creating or editing a campaign, click the Load Template dropdown above the HTML editor. Select a template and its HTML will be inserted into the editor body, replacing any existing content. You can then customise the text and links for your specific campaign.
