Hey everyone! I wanted to take a moment to show you something new at Benchmark Email that I’m excited about, and that’s the new Twitter Email Template. This will pull features straight from your Twitter page into your email.

We used the Benchmark Email Twitter account to demonstrate this.

You will notice the blue background with our logo. It also creates a mini profile, just like on your Twitter page. It includes your Avatar, how many followers and people you follow as well as a link to follow you on Twitter, right there in the email.

Directly below that are social networking buttons, that your recipients can use to share your email on various social networking site.

This template is found in the Newsletter section of the Templates page in the Email Builder.

To have the template automatically pull from your Twitter account, you will need to activate our new Integration feature.

To do this, click on My Account from your home page when logged into your Benchmark Email account. Next, click on the Integration section. Click Authorize connection and allow access when prompted by Twitter.

That’s all there is too it. Now you have a simple solution to cross promote your Twitter account with email marketing.A how to for visual learners: twitter email template
