Sep 2022: Custom HTML builder, scheduled send options, and a revamped Marketing Emails page

We're introducing the following new features to Paubox Marketing starting September 14, 2022:

• Custom HTML builder
• Scheduled send options
• Revamped Marketing Emails page

Custom HTML builder

Paubox Marketing users now have the option to create emails using the custom HTML builder for more flexibility to design emails. With this builder, you can design your email in an external editor (examples include: beefree.io, Adobe Dreamweaver) and import the HTML code. Within the HTML builder, you can revise code, add in smart text and preview your final email.

How does it work?

1. Build your email design in an external editor (like befree.io or Adobe Dreamweaver) and copy the HTML code.
2. Go to the Marketing Emails page in Paubox Marketing and choose the Custom HTML Builder option.
3. Enter a unique name to identify the marketing email.
4. Paste the HTML code into the HTML Builder.
5. (Optional) Insert Smart Text or make edits to the HTML code directly in the HTML editor.
6. Save your email and press Continue to move on to scheduling and send options.
