The prompt

Two ways to build this email in plain language. The fastest is Temway's in-editor assistant — open the chat drawer in the email editor and paste the recipe below. Or connect Claude or ChatGPT via Temway's MCP and paste it there; the agent builds the email step by step. Either way, adapt the copy and colors to your brand.

  • 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.

Over MCP, tell your agent to clone the Temway share gx7dpXghimqeGe-CBh3vi and rebrand. For the full model, point an MCP agent at get_conceptemail-structure, layouts-vs-emails, design-recipes.

The off-market invitation that lands in a buyer’s inbox on the Friday before a private sale weekend. A single piece of oversized serif typography on near-black carries the whole email, the body names the three residences and never the prices, and the CTA is the brochure request — not a purchase. Reads as “invitation only,” never as “for sale.”

Snapshot

  • Goal: pre-qualify and convert private buyers for an off-market portfolio sale.
  • Audience & tone: ultra-high-net-worth buyers, their lawyers, and their family-office advisors. Discreet, restrained, deliberate — every word is chosen for someone who has been to many of these.
  • Palette: page #3b2929 · container #2a1818 · text #fef2f2 / #998a8a (muted) · accent #8a6a1f
  • Font: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif
  • Artwork: none — fully native blocks.

Build recipe

Each step is one block in the flat stack, top to bottom. [native] = a real email block. [layout] = a free-form layout embedded as a single image.

  1. [native] Logo — logo. Brand mark, center-aligned.
  2. [native] Kicker — text. “Private Sale · Monday 10am”, fontSize: 14, color #a48b50, center, uppercase.
  3. [native] Headline — text. “Three residences, never publicly listed”, fontSize: 28, color #fef2f2, center.
  4. [native] Body copy 1 — text. “A penthouse on Crescent Drive, a townhouse on Elm Court, and a lakefront compound at Marlowe — pre-vetted buyers only.”, fontSize: 16, color #fef2f2, center.
  5. [native] Primary CTA — button. Label “Request the private brochure”, fill #8a6a1f, color #ffffff, shapeStyle: ‘0_1’, center.
  6. [native] Body copy 2 — text. “All viewings are arranged privately with the listing principal. An NDA is available on request.”, fontSize: 16, color #998a8a, center.
  7. [native] Body copy 3 — text. “Charles Mendel, Atelier Estates — direct line available to pre-qualified buyers on request.”, fontSize: 16, color #998a8a, center.
  8. [native] Footer rule — divider. short (96px) rule, 1px, color #e9e9e9.
  9. [native] Footer social — social. Icon row, social.color #a48b50, style circle-outline, center.
  10. [native] Footer address — address. Postal address + unsubscribe, address.color #998a8a, address.fontFamily Georgia, Times New Roman, serif, center.

Make it yours

  1. Swap the three residence names (Crescent Drive, Elm Court, Marlowe) for your off-market inventory.
  2. Replace Charles Mendel and the DRE number with your listing principal.
  3. Keep the dark and gold pairing — it’s what reads as “invitation only” instead of “for sale.”

About promotional email templates

A promotional email has exactly one job: drive an action before a deadline. Everything about the design — the countdown, the single dominant CTA, the offer stated in the first line — exists to make the deadline feel real rather than decorative.

See all promotional templates →

How much urgency should a promotional email create?

Enough to justify a countdown timer or an "ends [date]" line, but tied to a real deadline — the templates below use a visible countdown or explicit expiry date rather than vague "limited time" language.

Can I add a discount code or coupon to one of these templates?

Yes — several templates below are built around a coupon-stub or code-reveal hero; clone one and swap in your own code and terms.

What's the difference between a flash-sale and a seasonal-offer template?

A flash-sale template is built for a short window (hours to a couple of days) with heavy countdown emphasis. A seasonal-offer template runs longer — a week or more — and leads with the occasion instead of a ticking clock.

Will a promotional template trigger spam filters?

Temway's proofread check flags common spam triggers — excessive punctuation, all-caps subject lines, missing unsubscribe links — before you send, so issues specific to promotional copy get caught before they reach an inbox.
