5 Template Builders to Boost Your Emails

Whether you already send your customers regular emails or want to start engaging with customers in this way, an email template builder is an easy way to create and send a high-quality email campaign. Using an email template builder saves you time and effort and provides professional-level results without actually having to hire a graphic designer or marketing professional. 

Most template builders also provide analytics so you can see how your emails are performing, and they also allow for replication of an email, so you can create regular email campaigns and don’t have to rebuild the email every time you want to send. 

HubSpot shared their top 13 picks for an email template builder. Here we offer our top five choices for home improvement retailers.
