Email marketing

Hello,

I would like to know about newsletter email that is rich with pictures such as sending promotion for product catalog. Is that html format? If so the programmer must code the newsletter since the marketing person would not be able to create the newsletter by themselves. Is this scenario that js normally happen? will ckeditor able to create html content?

Does the MailChimp actually works? I tried sending a test email using mailchimp to my yahoo email for the free version and do not get the email message.

Yes, newsletter emails can be in HTML format, allowing you to include pictures and other media. And yes, typically, a programmer or someone with HTML knowledge would need to create it, assuming there's a complex design involved. However, marketing folks can use tools like CKEditor, which allows the creation of HTML content without coding knowledge. In my experience, though, it's essential to explore other marketing methods, too. For instance, I'm using this Facebook adspy tool from https://poweradspy.com/ for my business. It's a game-changer in targeting specific audiences, and I've found it more efficient than traditional email marketing. It might be worth a shot for you, too.
