📨 Design High-Converting Emails in Figma for Klaviyo
Stop Guessing. Start Designing Emails That Actually Convert.
Hey, it’s Ray.
Let’s talk about something most brands get wrong… email design.
I’ve seen it too many times.
Beautiful emails that look great but don’t convert.
And on the flip side?
Ugly emails that surprisingly make sales… but destroy brand credibility.
Here’s the truth: You don’t have to choose between “pretty” and “profitable.”
You can (and should) have both.
That’s why I just dropped a brand new YouTube tutorial where I show you exactly how I design high-converting ecommerce emails using Figma + Klaviyo, from start to finish.
This is the process I use for our own clients to build emails that look great and drive revenue.

What You’ll Learn in This Tutorial
âś… How to design emails in Figma that Convert
You’ll see my full design workflow, from layout to spacing to CTA hierarchy.
I’ll show you how to design clean, scrollable emails that guide customers toward the sale.
âś… Real email marketing strategy, not just design tips
We’re not just making things look good.
I’m showing you how to structure emails that perform, with the right subject lines, content blocks, and mobile-first design principles.
âś… How to export from Figma to Klaviyo seamlessly
This is where most people get stuck.
I’ll show you how to turn your Figma designs into real, responsive Klaviyo emails fast, without breaking formatting.
âś… Email Deliverability Tips That Actually Work
What’s the point of a gorgeous email if it never hits the inbox?
I’m sharing practical ways to improve deliverability so your designs actually get seen.

So, Why Does This Matter?
Design isn’t just about aesthetics, it’s about customer experience.
If you’re building ecommerce flows, welcome emails, promos, or campaigns in Klaviyo… your design matters more than ever.
Most Brands Make These Common Mistakes
❌ Too much text, not enough visual hierarchy
People skim.
Your emails should guide them through the message, not overwhelm them.
❌ Designing in Klaviyo instead of planning first
Trying to design directly in Klaviyo is like building a house with no blueprint.
Start in Figma.
Map it.
Then build.
❌ Neglecting mobile optimization
75% of people check email on their phones.
If your emails aren’t responsive, you’re leaving money on the table.
