Flash Sale — Ecommerce
A high-energy flash-sale email with a rasterized coupon-ticket hero — dashed-border ticket, burst accent, gradient "30% OFF", dashed promo-code pill, and a pill CTA.
The prompt
Paste the brief below into ChatGPT or Claude with Temway's MCP enabled — the agent builds the email step by step. Or adapt it for your own brand and copy.
- An email is a top-to-bottom stack of blocks — the recipe follows that order.
- A
[layout]step becomes a single image (great for heroes); everything else stays live text and links. - Theme the footer to match — the recipe's last step does exactly that.

A loud, time-boxed flash sale. A coupon-ticket hero carries the headline discount, then urgency copy, a category list, a copyable code, and a prominent shop button. Every element serves the “buy now or miss out” energy.

Make it yours
- Swap the discount, the four categories, and the code.
- Recolor the orange→red hero to your brand.
- Keep the code as its own text step (step 5) so shoppers can copy it — never bury it in the hero image.
