Send beautiful Emails

Sending a beautifully crafted email to a large number of contacts is not that easy. It typically requires you to learn multiple tools or technologies and have a good design sense. Once you have sent that mail, evaluating the responses and replying becomes an equally daunting task. Moreover, automating the workflow needs more specialised tools and integrations.

At BakeMyWeb, we have identified this problem and are working towards giving you an easy and integrated solution for all your marketing needs.

Campaigns

Every outbound mail you plan to send is called a Campaign. To send a campaign follow these steps:

  • Selected a Project to work with.
  • Navigate to the Connect > Verify Emails. Ensure that you have verified at least one email.
  • Click Connect > Send Email.
  • Select one of the Email templates.

Say you are interested in creating a marketing campaign for your newly launched product line. You will need to select Marketing from the dropdown and click the Add button. It will take you to our beautifully designed Mail Builder page.

Mail Builder

A mail builder is a drag and drop interface for mails that we believe you will love for its simplicity and ease of use. It contains a gallery of beautifully designed and versatile Sections. Each section is drag & drop friendly, and you can create the layout as you deem fit for your purpose. All the sections are battle-tested and work well on all platforms, so you do not have to bother with the email client your user might be using.

You can click and edit most sections. Click on any section to activate it, and then configure using the information panel (on the right side of the page). Almost every section has settings that you could tweak to suit your requirements. You can add and delete as many sections as you like. If there is a design that you are unable to create, we would be happy to hear from you and add it to our ever-growing library. Please send your suggestions to feedback.

Many sections allow adding Images. You could upload or add your images before creating these emails for a better experience.

In the mail builder interface, you can Save the mail as Draft, and send it later. You can also create the mail in advance and Schedule it for a particular date and time to a selected Contact, Audience or a Direct email that is not even in your contact list. You can manage your Contact List & Audience just as easily!

One more thing... before you can send emails, you must verify the From address or Domain. We do not allow you to send Anonymous mails. Verifying your email or domain is a one-time activity. You can learn more about it here.

Sections

There are plenty of sections to choose between in the Gallery. Inside your mail builder interface, to the right, you have an Information Panel. It contains 3 tabs primarily:

  • Body: It will let you provide your Campaign details along with a high-level design of the mail.
  • Gallery: It will let you browse all the available sections or add that by name (if you remember it).
  • Sections: The section tab appears only when a section is selected. A selected section can have many settings that you can control based on your requirements.

When you hover your mouse on any of the sections, you will see a Copy icon along with a Duplicate icon. Depending on where you click (on the top or bottom icon of the section), a new mail section will get inserted.

Every time you click the Add icon, you will see a Section Picker where you can select a section like Header, Footer, Divider, Elements, General, etc. We keep adding more sections for you, so keep exploring them every once in a while to find new designs.

Using variables

If your list has columns called Email, Name, Address, Country, you can use them as variables in your Mail builder interface. Just use {{ Email }}, {{ Name }}, {{ Address }}, {{ Country }} and so on. Yes, it is that simple! Remember, to use this feature, you must update your Campaign Details from the Information Panel and choose a Contact list using the Pick Variables From dropdown.
