Message anatomy

A useful starting point, with the important parts named.

Three hundred is enough for reprinting the same size and nothing else. Six hundred allows cropping and enlarging, and the storage cost is now trivial.

What you can change

  • Brand name
  • Subject line
  • Preheader
  • Eyebrow
  • Headline
  • Supporting copy
  • Primary action label
  • Primary action URL

What to keep clear

  1. Campaign context
  2. Headline and editorial premise
  3. Three skimmable sections
  4. Primary and secondary action
  5. Preference and unsubscribe footer

Complete starting copy

Guide

Six hundred dots per inch, because you will not do this twice

Three hundred is enough for reprinting the same size and nothing else. Six hundred allows cropping and enlarging, and the storage cost is now trivial.

Resolution

Six hundred for prints and twelve hundred for negatives and slides. Storage is cheap and rescanning a box of photographs is not.

File format

TIFF for the archive copy and JPEG for sharing. JPEG loses information every time it is saved, which matters over decades.

The metadata

Write who and when on the file at the time of scanning. Nobody comes back to do it later and the knowledge disappears with a generation.
