An Email That Actually Renders Right
Built with email-safe HTML and tested across Gmail, Outlook, and Apple Mail — not just designed to look good in one preview tool.
Email HTML breaks in ways web HTML doesn't
Email HTML is not website HTML
Email clients render code inconsistently — what looks perfect in Gmail can break in Outlook. We build with email-safe HTML/CSS specifically, not a copy-pasted web page.
Mobile-responsive by default
Most marketing emails are opened on a phone first — the template is built to read cleanly on a small screen, not just a desktop preview.
On-brand, not generic
Your colours, logo, and fonts (where email-safe) carried through consistently, so the email reads as unmistakably yours rather than a generic template with your logo dropped in.
Reusable, not a one-off send
Delivered as a template with clearly marked editable sections, so you (or whoever sends your emails) can reuse it for future sends without needing a designer each time.
From brand assets to inbox-proof in four steps
No meetings needed — the whole process runs over email and takes 3–5 business days.
- 1.
Send your brand assets and brief
Logo, colours, an example of an email you like, and what the template is for — newsletter, promo, order confirmation, or onboarding.
- 2.
We design the layout
A mobile-first design using your branding, structured around how the email will actually be scanned: header, hero message, sections, one clear call-to-action.
- 3.
We code and torture-test it
Built in email-safe HTML/CSS, then rendered and checked across Gmail, Outlook (the notorious one), and Apple Mail on desktop and mobile — dark mode included.
- 4.
You get the files and instructions
The HTML template with clearly marked editable regions, test screenshots, and import instructions for your sending platform.

For anyone whose emails have to look professional
This service exists for businesses that send emails customers judge them by: newsletters that represent the brand, order confirmations that reassure a buyer, onboarding sequences that set the tone. If you’ve ever sent a campaign that looked perfect in the preview and broken in a customer’s Outlook, this is the fix.
It pairs naturally with the rest of what we do — clients on our Complete Website plan often add a matching email template so the website and the inbox tell the same brand story. It works just as well standalone: you keep your existing site and sending platform, and simply drop the template in.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which email platforms does this work with?
The HTML template works with any standard email sending platform (Mailchimp, Klaviyo, Resend, ActiveCampaign, and similar) — tell us which one you use and we'll make sure the format matches what it expects.
Will it actually look right in Outlook, not just Gmail?
Yes — this is the specific problem this service solves. We test rendering across the major clients (Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail) rather than just checking it in one preview tool and assuming the rest will match.
Can I get more than one template — e.g. a newsletter and an order confirmation?
Yes, each additional template is priced the same as the first (£149) unless it shares most of its structure with one you've already ordered, in which case we'll quote a lower rate for the variant.
Do you write the copy too, or just the design?
This service covers the design and code. If you also want the copy written, that pairs well with our blog/content writing service or can be scoped as part of the same order — just tell us.
How long does it take?
Typically 3-5 business days from confirmed brand assets and content.
Can you rebuild or fix our existing template instead of starting fresh?
Yes. If you have a template that breaks in certain clients or looks dated, we can rebuild it on solid email-safe foundations while keeping the layout you’re used to. It’s priced the same as a new template.
What do you need from us to start?
Your logo (ideally SVG or high-resolution PNG), brand colours, any font preferences, one or two examples of emails you like, and a sentence on what the template is for. That’s enough for a first draft.
Does it support dark mode?
Yes — dark mode is one of the most common ways email templates break, with logos vanishing into dark backgrounds and colours inverting badly. We test the template in dark mode on the major clients and build the logo and colour treatment to survive it.
