Salesforce.com Sales Insight Email Fonts Sales Emails

[Anonymous]

I'm setting up emails in folders that are avaiable for our sales team to use in SFDC using Sales Insight. For some reason when I open the templates in SFDC and try to edit, the fonts get all messed up (double or triple spacing when I hit "enter", different size font on every line, ect..). Does anyone have experience with this or know how to fix it?

Jason, it sounds like an issue with your email HTML code: sometimes an email will look perfect when previewed, but will easily break when edited.  I'd recommend taking it to your developer and asking them to fix it.

Steven, sorry for the belated response. I've just run into this issue again. It's actually not occuring with any type of fancy HTML emails - just a blank email (from a blank template) with the sales rep's email signature at the bottom. Any ideas?

Update-

Hopefully the MSI/SFDC editor will be improved in the future; at this point it looks like the editor is only build to make very minor edits to already-created email templates. After spending some time with support this is the response I got:

"The published Sales Insight email is nothing more than a HTML email template that is brought over from Marketo. In Salesforce the editable sections are ignored and you can edit everything in the email template. The WYSIWYG editor used in the Sales Insight App is borrowed from components of Salesforce and we do not have the ability to control the editor behavior that you are seeing. You can however use the WYSIWYG editor to adjust the text font, size, bold, italic, etc.

It is therefore suggested to type out your message and then highlight the text and use the provided buttons in the editor to change the font, grow or shrink the text, and back space out in extra spaces, etc."

Hi, is there an update on this? I keep telling our Sales team to adapt the email templates to personalise them as much as possible but if the font consistently breaks they just won't use them.
