Build Email Templates with Drag and Drop Functionality

Build Email Templates with Drag and Drop Functionality

I often have simple email templates I would like to build, but I have to outsource building templates to someone who works well with HTML code.  Being able to build simple email templates inside of Marketo, without having to use HTML code, by dragging and dropping elements would be a huge help.

I would love to see some of these features that already exist that self-service ESPs provide today - like Campaign Monitor: https://www.campaignmonitor.com/features/

I couldn't agree more!  The basic templates that come with Marketo are inadequate and cannot be easily edited unless you know HTML and the templates on templates/marketo.com are weak.  I too will have to hire someone who knows HTML which is disappointing considering the Marketo price tag.  Other MAP providers have drop and drag functionality so I don't understand why Marketo doesn't offer that.  I was told it was because different email clients don't recognize the codes the same way, however, I never had an issue with this when using Hubspot, which does provide drop and drag functionality.  Marketo, please make this a priority on a future update!

I absolutely agree. We used to use MailChimp which was all drag and drop. Marketo is obviously far more robust and advanced... why is this simple piece missing?
