Email Design Review

Minted

Minted, we usually really love your email designs. Not only is the quality of both the images and image editing very high, but the overall layout and aesthetic is very appealing. Do you feel a 'but' coming? But this particular email design isn't your best work. First and foremost, it doesn't meet accessibility standards. In case you didn't know, text that is part of an image cannot be read by screen-readers. This means that super important things like buttons and other CTAs are not even visible, much less actionable, by members of your target audience who are vision impaired. Accessibility is taking center-stage in all areas of design these days. I suggest you get on board, too. It's an easy win-win for everyone.

PROS

  1. Long header image invites further exploration
  2. The big button captures attention to the area
  3. All links redirect to the correct website section
  4. Nicely designed section with lots of white space
  5. Beautiful organized footer

CONS

  1. Pre-header CTA can be easily overlooked
  2. The text is an image, not actual text. HUGE accessibility issue.
  3. The color blocking in the background disrupts the design's continuity
  4. Image curation could’ve been better
