I’ve taken a couple of examples from InboxVision’s “be inspired” Email Collections, a small extract from their Market Intelligence database of a million promotional & newsletter emails. Read the rest of this entry »

Have fun with your email images

Virgin America have sent out this email with an eye-catching, fun image. The email design is simple and direct.

Virgin clearly have a customer aquisition strategy.

I’ve taken it from InboxVision’s “be inspired” Email Collections, which is just a small extract from their Market Intelligence database of a million promotional & newsletter emails. Read the rest of this entry »
