Email Template Refresh

Wondering how a test prep company tries to make their content interesting through emails? I was tasked with figuring that out. Helping to transition Kaplan’s old email templates to our new brand, I had the opportunity to work with the email marketing team, developer, copywriter and creative director to develop the brand guidelines and templates that are currently still being used.

Many of these templates are to help:

  • Create a new design and copy email guidelines for the creative marketing team to use

  • Increase revenue and engagement

  • Develop assets for A/B tests to improve current templates and segmentation

Content email series refresh sent out to leads for engagement for Kaplan Test Prep’s blog
Main test and goal:

  • Increase conversion by adding promotional language to the bottom of emails when appropriate

  • Incorporate and refresh overall look of the new brand in to the emails

  • By segmenting the emails being sent to different leads (for example, parents vs. students for SAT and ACT emails)- create different designs to track what works for incorporating product imagery/colors vs having all text emails
