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 mid-flow when the user has already started onboarding and needs the next action spelled out clearly.
- Update the step counter and button label together so the message stays aligned with the actual setup journey.
Keep in mind
- Include the step number in text so progress is understandable without visual layout context.
- Make the CTA destination explicit so keyboard and screen-reader users know what happens next.
Copy the format that fits the job
Copy the MJML snippet into the same body as your other blocks. Use standalone mode when testing this block on its own or exporting a full file for QA.
Standalone MJML
Best for local testing or isolated compilation.
Compiled HTML
Best for ESP handoff, QA review, or HTML-only integrations.
Compatibility and rendering notes
Use these notes before moving the block into a campaign, layout system, or client handoff.
Client-specific notes
- Gmail (Web + Mobile): Primary spacing, stack order, and CTA rendering hold up in Gmail web and mobile views.
- Outlook Desktop (Windows): Simple step cards are reliable, though Outlook can reduce the padding around left-aligned CTA buttons.
