Step 4: Content
In Step 4, you can use our user-friendly drag & drop editor to design your newsletter. You can add blocks with headings, texts, images, videos, buttons, a table of contents, and/or social media. You can personalise your newsletter, optimise it for display on a desktop or mobile phone and, of course, include links to files, websites and social media.

Testing and previewing in your browser
When creating your newsletter and (of course) when you have finished designing and filling it, we recommend that you use Preview and Testmail:
- With Preview, you can immediately see how your newsletter will look like for your relations - on both desktop and mobile.
- With Testmail, you can send your newsletter to your own e-mail address and those of a few others for verification. Read more relevant information about sending testmails here.
At the top of the page in Step 4, you will find the buttons for this:
If you're satisfied with your newsletter, and are about to send it (after a final check), you can also save it as a new template. To do so, click on ‘Save as template’ (at the top of the screen). When you create your next campaign, you'll find this modified template in Step 3.
Furthermore, the buttons at the top of this screen allow you to quickly go ‘Back to Step 3’, switch to the preview for the desktop and mobile view (the screens on the far right) and continue ‘
To Step 5’.
Putting together a newsletter in a 'Joe'
Are you creating a campaign with a (custom) Joe-type template? In that case, you work with a different editor.
You can read how this editor works here, and how you can use it to put together your newsletter.
