As retailers, we know that there is often a lull during the summer months. But, the show must go on! Here are some clever ways brands are getting creative with their summer sends.
Bright Colors
Just like hummingbirds we are also attracted to pops of color. So, use bright summer colors like golden yellow, original orange, ruddy red and tantalizing teal to make your email stand out! It is always nice to see a little brand flare as well. In this send, TOMS does a nice job highlighting volunteers and philanthropy.
