ecommerce email design agency

Email design for ecommerce brands.

Ecommerce email design is the work of turning a brand's identity into campaign and flow emails that render correctly in every inbox. Inferno Emails designs every email from scratch for the brand it belongs to, with no template packs, and tests each one across Gmail, Apple Mail, Outlook and mobile clients.

A template with your logo dropped in the corner still looks like a template, and customers can tell. We design each email around the brand it belongs to: your type, your colour, your photography, your tone. The portfolio on this site is the whole argument. Look at the Girafon Bleu welcome email next to the Bondi Coffee one and you would not guess the same team made both.

What we take care of.

Emails designed to look like your brand rather than like an email. Every campaign in our portfolio was built from scratch.

  • Custom design for every campaign and flow email
  • Brand-matched type, colour and layout system
  • Mobile-first layouts, because most of your list reads on a phone
  • Dark-mode safe colour and image handling
  • Bulletproof buttons and live text where it matters for accessibility
  • Tested across Gmail, Apple Mail, Outlook and mobile clients

Emails people screenshot and forward, instead of ones they scroll past on the way to the delete button.

Is this the right fit?

Who this is for

  • Ecommerce brands with consistent monthly revenue and an existing list
  • Klaviyo already installed, and visibly under-used
  • A brand with a real point of view that templates are flattening
  • Teams who want one partner owning the channel, not four suppliers
  • Founders who will look at an attributed-revenue number honestly

Who this is not for

  • Pre-revenue stores with no list to email yet
  • Anyone looking for a one-off template pack and no strategy
  • Brands whose core problem is the product or the offer, not the channel
  • Businesses that want to buy or scrape a list, which we will not send to
  • Anyone who needs a guaranteed revenue figure promised before the audit

The account is the evidence.

This is a whole-channel client result, not a claim that any single service produced it.

Questions about email design.

Do you use templates?

We build a reusable design system for your brand so production stays fast, but the layouts are drawn for you. We do not buy or resell template packs.

Can you match our existing brand guidelines?

Yes. Send them over and we will work inside them. If you do not have guidelines, we will infer a system from your site and product photography and document it as we go.

Will the emails work in dark mode?

Yes. We handle dark mode explicitly: logos get transparent or inverted variants, background colours are chosen so they do not invert badly, and we test in the clients that force dark mode rather than hoping for the best.

How much does custom email design cost?

It depends on how many campaigns and flow emails you need designed each month, so we quote after the free audit rather than a flat rate. There is no fee for the audit itself.

How long until we get our first custom-designed email?

Flow emails are typically ready within the same two to three weeks it takes to build the flows they belong to, since design and build happen together. Campaign emails can turn around faster once your brand system is documented.

We review your flows, list health, authentication records and last ninety days of performance, then send back what we found.
