Can't make it live? No problem - you can still book your place. When you register, you'll be asked whether you're attending live or want the recording sent to you. Either way, your place is secured, and you'll get everything. You can also follow up with me after with any questions.

WHAT THIS IS REALLY ABOUT

You're not designing emails, you're really designing comprehension

Most email teams obsess over how emails look. They browse inspo galleries, they argue about fonts, they chase "premium". And then they wonder why the metrics don't move.

The truth is that email performance isn't governed by beauty — it's governed by conditions. And design is only one part of that picture.

"Design gets you understood. And being understood is a condition for engagement."

This masterclass will fundamentally change how you approach every email you send. We're going deep on the principles, the psychology, and the practical frameworks that will make your emails convert better.

What you’ll walk away with

After 75 minutes of teaching (plus 15 minutes of live Q&A), you'll think about email design differently — permanently. 

From understanding how people think and behave in the inbox, to applying proven copywriting principles, frameworks, and psychology to write emails that actually perform.

Who the masterclass is for

This masterclass is for any marketer who does email marketing — a little or a lot.

01

B2B

Business to Business

B2B

Nurture sequences, product updates, onboarding flows — where design is often an afterthought and text-heavy emails go unseen.

02

B2C

Business to Consumer

B2C

High-volume sends, retention campaigns, promotional emails - where overdesigning is just as dangerous as underdesigning.

03

D2C

Direct to Consumer

D2C

Brand-led email, ecommerce flows, lifecycle journeys - where the inspo gallery trap does the most damage.

04

NFP

Charities & Non-Profits

NFP

Donor communications, campaigns, and impact updates — where every email has to work hard and design is rarely anyone's specialism.

You don't need to be a designer. You don't need any specific tools. If you send emails as part of your job, this is for you.
