What a Difference HTML Makes

Why is an HTML email better than a plain text email?  Because HTML allows information to be organized and presented in a more effective way than plain text.  Also, with HTML you can include images, graphics, logos, fonts and colors.  The result is an email that is more engaging, easier to read, and more useful to your customer.

The example below illustrates the difference between Text and HTML email formats.

Before: Our client, Entrain, is a 6-piece, percussion/jam/rock/horn band from Martha's Vineyard. They use email to stay in touch with their fans - producing a monthly email newsletter that contains updated tour dates and news.  Prior to partnering with Email Solutions Group, Entrain only sent plain text emails (see below).  They delivered a message, but didn't maximize the benefits of HTML.

After: We worked with Entrain to design an HTML email template that was more representative of their brand and did a better job of organizing and presenting information.  We wanted to include photos and links to merchandise and just make the email more fun overall.  The result is the HTML template below.

HTML emails have more impact than plain text emails.
