How to Create Marketing Emails Using Campaign Assistant by HubSpot

Written by Sean McGauley | Jun 9, 2023 4:34:16 PM

Take the struggle out of creating compelling marketing emails to promote your campaigns. Use HubSpot's generative AI tool, Campaign Assistant to save time.

Note: This article has been updated to reflect HubSpot's new 2024 navigation. 

If you’re new to Campaign Assistant, the best place to start your learning journey is our first post where we explore what Campaign Assistant is, what it does, and walk through the steps to get started by creating a landing page for your marketing campaign.

Today, we’re going to take the next step with Campaign Assistant and use it to help us create an email to promote our campaign using the example of Hedgewise Landscaping from our last article.

As a refresher:
For this exercise, we’re using an example of a landscaping company called Hedgewise that wants to create a campaign for a complimentary garden consultation with new account sign-ups. 

Campaign Assistant already helped us create our campaign landing page. Again, here’s a quick look back:

How to Create a Marketing Email with Campaign Assistant

Here are the steps to use HubSpot’s Campaign Assistant to create a marketing email to support your campaign.

  1. Step 1: Navigate to the Campaign Assistant tool in HubSpot (or, if this is your first time using the tool, get started here)
  2. Step 2: Click on “Marketing Email” at the top of your screen with the other asset options. (Note: we’ve already used Campaign Assistant to create our landing page, so HubSpot automatically lists the campaign information we entered last time)
  3. Step 3: Make any necessary changes to your campaign information. In our example, I want people to know this is a temporary offer, so I am going to add “offer ends on September 22nd.” We’ll also change our Call-to-Action to “Learn more” since we want our email to drive people to our landing page
  4. Step 4: Click “Generate content”

Here’s what Campaign Assistant created:

A pretty good result, I’d say. It’s not exactly the format I had in mind, but with some quick edits that took me less than a few minutes, I’ve reworked this slightly into a more useful format. Another key consideration at this point (and with any use of generative AI) is to review the raw AI output for accuracy, clarity, and tone of voice. In this case, I want to make sure that the landing page copy matches Hedgewise’s brand voice/tone. Here’s how we reworked the AI output:

Putting it All Together

A lot of creativity goes into a multi-touch marketing campaign – copywriting for landing pages, marketing emails, and Google ads can be challenging since they all have their nuances. 

But, Campaign Assistant makes transitioning from these content types a breeze.

These days, marketers are busier than ever. So, any chance to save time throughout your day, week, and month will add up. Campaign Assistant frees up your time, so you can focus on other priorities.

In today’s post, we reviewed how to easily create compelling marketing emails that promote your campaigns and engage your target audience.

As with any AI, we strongly recommend human intervention – it’s always a good idea to refine the raw AI output with your own style and voice. Don’t be afraid to adjust the parameters and your campaign information inputs if Campaign Assistant is missing the mark.

Did you know you can use AI to take the guesswork out of SEO and Content Planning? Here's how.
