ASSP provides pre-built email templates in Real Magnet so your chapter emails look professional and on-brand without starting from scratch every time.
What is a Template?
A template is a saved email layout that includes your header, footer, color scheme, and content zones. Instead of recreating the design with each message, you choose a template as the foundation and fill in the content.
Available Templates
When you create a new message in Real Magnet, you’ll land on the template-selection page, which shows your Templates by default. ASSP-provided chapter templates will appear here. There are two categories to be aware of:
Layouts / Pre-designed — generic starter layouts from Real Magnet (holiday themes, industry styles, etc.) that can be used if no chapter template fits your needs.
Tip: Stick to the ASSP chapter templates when possible. They include the correct logo placement, footer, and unsubscribe language required for CAN-SPAM compliance.
How to Select a Template
- In Real Magnet, navigate to Messages > List.
- Click the + (plus) icon to create a new message.
- Give the message a name and assign it to the appropriate category.
- Click Create — you’ll be taken automatically to the template-selection page.
- Browse Templates, or use the search field to find one by name.
- Click Preview to see what a template looks like before selecting it.
- Click Select on the template you want to use. The Message Editor will open.
Can I Edit a Template?
Templates themselves are managed by your account administrator. If you need a new template created, or if an existing template needs updating, contact ASSP staff via the support ticket form.
Do not attempt to alter the structure of an ASSP-provided template — changes to headers and footers can break CAN-SPAM compliance.
