How to Create and Save Email Templates
When you send recurring campaigns such as member emails or newsletters, it’s helpful to save time by reusing a template. In Recrevio, you have a couple of different options for creating and managing email templates.
✅ Best Practice
- Use Option 1 if you want to quickly resend a similar campaign with minimal changes.
- Use Option 2 or Option 3 if you want reusable designs you can apply across multiple different campaigns.
Option 1: Copy an Entire Campaign
If you want to reuse everything from a previous campaign—including recipients, subject line, and design—you can simply copy (clone) the entire campaign.
- Go to Marketing > Campaigns
- Find the campaign you want to reuse
- Click on the cog icon and choose Clone
- Adjust the recipients, content, and settings as needed

This option is the fastest if you want to send a similar campaign again with only small changes. Typically a newsletter or member email.
Option 2: Save the Design as a Template
If you only want to reuse the design/layout of a previously sent email (without copying recipients or settings):
- Copy (clone) the campaign as described above
- Go to the Design step in the campaign editor
- Click More > Save as Template
- The design will now appear under Marketing > Email Templates > My Templates
Next time you create a new campaign, simply choose your saved template in the regular Create Campaign flow.
Option 3: Create Templates from Scratch
You can also build new templates without starting from an existing campaign. This is useful if you want to create a completely custom design or set up a standard layout for recurring emails.
Go to Marketing > Email Templates
You now have two choices:
- Use a Built-In Template to start from
- Browse the gallery of Recrevio’s ready-made templates
- Click the three dots on the template you want to use
- Select Clone
- The cloned version will appear under My Templates
- From there, you can open and edit it to make it your own
- Create a New Template from Scratch
- Click the Add New Template button
- Start with a blank canvas and build your template using Recrevio’s email editor
- Save your design so it’s always available under My Templates
👉 Pro tip
If you often send newsletters, member updates, or event reminders, it’s smart to create a set of base templates (e.g. “Newsletter Layout,” “Event Reminder”) that you can quickly adapt each time.
