Footer [ 2 ] – Informational

Template Details

Use Cases

Informational sites with a blog/post type-based structure that want to incorporate email marketing. Use this as a base template and feel free to add/remove items based on the customer’s content. When using the email marketing form (in the case that the customer did not provide any information regarding their email marketing platform), please connect this to “email” using the admin email as a temporary solution for the new build. Click here for instructions on setting up the subscribe form.
