About this template

A re-permission email for a newsletter or blog that wants to keep only readers who still open its issues. It is short on purpose: a heavy condensed wordmark, one centered headline, three small paragraphs and two clear answers.

The yes answer is a solid blue button and the no answer is an outline button right under it, so nobody has to hunt for the way out. A plain sign-off from the team and a grey footer close the email.

Use it before you clean a list, after a long pause in sending, or when you move to a new sending address. Keep the tone friendly and say what the reader gets if they stay: here, one issue a week with notes on writing, design and the tools behind them.

The layout comes from a classic minimal designer template with lots of white space and a single accent color. Swap the wordmark, the accent and the two button links, and it fits any media brand.
