New: Drag, Drop and Deliver!
Creating dynamic, functional emails formerly required a graphic designer, or spending hours at the computer editing code yourself. Simple actions such as dropping images where you like, or easily moving elements from one part of the template to another called for multiple steps; adding video in an email-app-friendly form could often be worse with unpredictable results.
Things could get very frustrating, very quickly. And so this became our challenge: How could we address your concerns and reduce your frustration, while incorporating the very best of what FeedBlitz has to offer?
Introducing FeedBlitz’s New Visual Mailing Editor (VME)
How is the VME different from other email editors?
- Begin with a structured template, build your own from scratch, or start from a previous mailing.
- Drag and drop mailing elements, from text to video to buttons to social and more!
- Instantly preview your mailing in desktop or mobile versions while you’re working.
- Easily mix and tailor automated content (such as your blog’s RSS feed, or the latest from Instagram, Pinterest, or Shopify) with your own carefully crafted copy.
- Access hundreds of thousands of beautiful, royalty-free, commercial use images, or simply drag and drop custom artwork from your computer.
- Easily edit the entire email’s look and feel in a few clicks, change it instantly by applying a theme, or highlight specific content areas and change them for the occasional graphic pop!
- Access any previously saved version at any time for those “uh-oh” moments.
- Full undo, redo and autosave.
- Create your own template library.
- And more!
The VME is the first of two large product initiatives we’re rolling out this year. It is, in effect, an early release of the brand new user interface being developed from the ground up. We’re making FeedBlitz much more intuitive to use, more flexible, and more modern, so you can not only achieve your email marketing goals more quickly, but also more capably. There’s so much more to come!
