  • Create “call now” button

    If you want your customers to be able to call you straight from your sent campaign, you should consider implementing a visible  Call now button in the newsletter’s body. Creating a “Call now” button is pretty simple – first, you will need to insert a button element into the selected section.

    When that’s done – button’s “link” section should have shortcut: tel:phone number

    for example, tel:+443031237300

    Now when the recipient clicks on the button, an option to call the selected phone number will emerge.

    Here how it looks on iPhone:
