Voice & tone
When writing copy for Vivup, it is important to use a consistent style that is informative, compliant, positive, plain-speaking and human. The audience must be considered at all times, do not presume they understand the processes associated with their benefits
Your tone might vary from message to message or touchpoint to touchpoint. And that’s ok!
Generally though, your tone should fall within the ranges here. If your tone is falling more toward either extreme (e.g. a very serious announcement, or an invite to a local ugly sweater party), this may not be the right moment to use the associate brand. Tone can also inform choices around grammar, such as using contractions to convey a more laidback attitude, or choosing periods over exclamation points to keep a message from sounding overzealous.

Email Design
Email Overview
Email marketing is very important here at Vivup as it helps build our brand identity and increases our customer engagement. Following these email guidelines should come second only to using the provided email templates.
Here are the most common types of content we send by email:
- B2C Business as usual emails (BAU) promoting events, products and covering multiple employee benefits we offer as a newsletter style email
- Internal message emails (mainly copy minimal design)
- Educational emails for getting the most out of existing products and features
- Monthly newsletters
- Automated emails such as abandoned basket and renewal emails
- Onboarding emails
- B2B emails
Hero main content
4 & 2 column supporting
Hero with newsletter style
Zig Zag layout (unless dynamic)
Internal Message
1 column no images
1 column with hero image
Structure Guide
It is recommended email content should be structured according to an inverted pyramid model, by using a layout to guide readers on what the most important content in the email is. Our emails should be written for a distracted audience, only including the necessary content to communicate the intended message.
If a campaign requires a different layout we recommend a banner style hero image above the email fold. This will mostly apply to our B2B emails. If creating campaigns outside the provided templates, content should be in a single column layout only to assist with readability
Inverted Pyramid Layout
Banner Lead Style Layout
Spacing and Sizing
Email Width
Our emails are 660 pixels wide. We set this because 660 divides nicely into 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 10 — and that gives us greater freedom to work with multiple columns and more complex grid layouts which our emails require at times.
Padding and Spacing
Header
Our email header is full width of 660 pixels with a top left and top right border radius of 30 pixels. The pre-header and view in browser link sit above the header with no bottom padding, and the pre-header is displayed as invisible text using HTML code. We use the Vivup logo in the header center aligned with padding of 15 pixels top and bottom, and 10 pixels left and right and a size of 95 x 61 pixels. The padding all around the header is 10 pixels.
Depending on the email we also include navigation links underneath the header with a 3 pixel line (#F0F0F0) separating from the logo

Body copy in our BAU B2C emails should be center-aligned and our B2B emails, or educational type emails, should be left-aligned to help with readability on small devices. Generally you should only centre align if there’s less than 3 lines of text, but we always centre-align for our BAU B2C emails.
Button Specifications
You must keep the following in mind when creating button for emails:
- All email buttons should be coded as such to ensure users with images disabled are still able to see the CTA
- Use meaningful link text rather than ‘click here’ for understanding and accessibility
- Button text should be sentence case
- Button widths should expand to fit their text, or be a maximum 500 pixels width
Imagery & Graphics
Hero Image
The hero image of an email is very important as it is the first visual to be seen and gives the user a glimpse of what our email is about. When it comes to emails some email clients do not render images correctly, so it is important the key message in the email is readable as live text above the fold or just underneath. Below is a guide to image sizes for desktop and mobile.PLEASE NOTE: This is purely a guide but if a creative design requires a different size this is allowed but will need to be approved. Just make sure to be aware to keep key information above the fold.
Desktop
Mobile
Imagery
Content in images for emails should follow our photography guidelines if lifestyle imagery is required. Additionally, images used in emails should:
Be optimised for mobile to support quick loading. GIFs recommended to be under 1MB in size
Have alt-text to communicate important visuals for accessibility purposes
Never have important messaging/words saved in the image file - if necessary use a background image with live text over the top
