customize woocommerce emails with elementor

Let’s face it, default WooCommerce emails were never made to inspire. While they can deliver essential order information, they don’t have the personality and polish that can help your brand stand out. Emails that look generic usually feels impersonal, which can hurt your brand’s image over time.

What if we told you that you could customize these emails to display your brand and order information exactly how you want them to look? Sounds too complicated? Well it’s easier than you think!

This blog will show you how to create and customize WooCommerce emails with Elementor and CoDesigner to develop a professional brand image, and build a loyal customer base. Get ready to create a stronger brand identity, one email at a time!

Why Customize WooCommerce Emails? 

With the help of WooCommerce email customizer Elementor, you can send out customer emails that can help you build a professional-looking brand image and provide better conversion opportunities at the same time. 

Let’s look at the benefits of customizing your WooCommerce emails with Elementor – 

Boost Brand Identity & Recognition

Generic emails might be functional, but they do little to reflect your brand’s personality. When a customer received a basic email, it shows that your business doesn’t care about its image; which in turn takes away some of the confidence they have in your brand.

Adding your logo, brand colors, website matching fonts, and an audience-specific tone of voice helps create a familiar and memorable experience for your customers.

Drive Sales & Engagement

Plain texts are easy to ignore. Just think, how often have you deleted brand emails thinking they’re spam or just not worth your time. You can quickly grab attention by including eye-catching visuals, clear calls-to-action, and personalized messages that speaks directly to your customers.

The effort will be well-worth it, as it results in higher engagement and more repeat business.

Build Trust & Professionalism

First impressions matter, and your emails are often the first point of contact after a purchase. A polished email reassures your customers that their order is in good hands and reinforces your credibility as a brand.

Customized emails show that you care about the details, which can go a long way in building long-term relationships with your customers.

Stand Out in a Crowded Inbox

Your customers’ inboxes are flooded with emails every day. If yours look like everyone else’s, they’re likely to get lost in the noise. With the right design and messaging, you can create emails that gets opened, noticed and remembered.

  1. Hello, are there short codes or tags available to use?

    For example.

    {Shippemt_cost}
    {Product_bought}
    {Product_qty}
    {Product_image}

    So that it’s not the basic woocommerce table?

    Ps. On mobile the site menu is messed up! It is in the middle of my screen 🙂
