How to use this block

Treat the component as one production section inside a larger message system. Keep the shared classes and wrapper rules intact, then adapt the copy, imagery, and links to the send.

Use this block when...

  • Use below a hero when you need a short explanation and one supporting action.
  • Works well for feature callouts, editorial copy, and onboarding guidance.
  • If the CTA is optional, remove the button rather than leaving unused visual weight.

Keep in mind

  • Keep paragraph contrast high because this block often carries explanatory copy.
  • Use a CTA label that describes the destination instead of generic language like click here.
