Email Styling at a Glance
Before You Begin
Open the email you want to style and decide which visual elements need adjustment.
- Open the email template or campaign in the Email Builder.
- Review the existing colors, spacing, buttons, and section backgrounds.
- Keep readability and contrast in mind as you make changes.
- Plan to preview the finished email on both desktop and mobile.
Color Swatches and Background Styling
Use the color picker to apply brand colors to text, buttons, and sections, and use background colors to create clear separation between content blocks.
Step 1: Select the Content Element
Add or select the text block, section, footer, or other content element you want to style.
Step 2: Open the Styling Controls
Open the available styling controls in the editor panel.
Step 3: Choose Colors
Select a text color and, when available, a background color for the selected section or content block.
Step 4: Preview the Result

Mobile Optimization
Many recipients read email on mobile devices. Use Mobile Formatting settings and preview modes to make sure the email remains readable and easy to interact with on smaller screens.
Accessibility Best Practices
Use Readable Fonts
Keep body text large enough to read comfortably without zooming.
Maintain Strong Contrast
Avoid low-contrast combinations such as light gray text on a white background.
Add Alt Text
Use descriptive alt text for images to support screen readers and recipients who have images blocked.
Create Clear Hierarchy
Use headings, spacing, and bullet lists to make the email easier to scan.
