Tips on how to work with a designer or agency to create a custom email template for FeedOtter.

Hire/Use a Designer

Hiring a designer or agency is a great option if you want a completely custom template that reflects your brand. Many FeedOtter customers choose this path for professional-quality designs tailored to their needs.

What to Tell Your Designer

To ensure your template works seamlessly in FeedOtter, share our HTML Best Practices Guide with your designer before they begin. This document explains the layout requirements and coding standards needed for smooth automation and avoids rework later.

Where to Find a Designer

If you don’t already have an in-house designer, there are several trusted ways to get help:

• Email Design Agencies – Specialized firms that build bulletproof email templates:

  • Email Mavlers - Custom HTML emails built for consistent rendering with a focus on clean code and best practices.

  • MailBakery - Builds and hand-codes email templates tailored to your brand.

  • EmailBoutique - Bespoke template design and coding focused on brand alignment.

• Freelance Platforms – Marketplaces where you can find experienced email developers and designers.

  • Upwork – Search for “email developer” or “HTML email specialist.”

  • Fiverr – Affordable freelancers offering email design and development services.

  • Toptal – Higher-end talent network if you’re looking for vetted professionals.

Before Sending to FeedOtter

No matter who builds your template, make sure it is:

• Cleanly coded and mobile-responsive

• Litmus-tested (or tested with a similar tool) to confirm rendering across inboxes

• Handed off as a final HTML file

Once ready, send the final HTML file to FeedOtter at [email protected] and our team will apply the FeedOtter-specific tokens and upload it to your template library for use within FeedOtter.
