Production role

Where this block earns its place

Treat the component as one production section inside a larger message system. It should support the send goal, survive handoff, and remain easy to review before compilation.

Newsletter

For repeatable editorial sends, product updates, and digest sections that need a stable rhythm.

Workflow context

Typically used in

These relationships help buyers understand the block as part of a send, not as an isolated catalogue item.

Implementation

Practical QA before handoff

Keep the checks short and action-oriented. The goal is to help teams decide whether this block is ready to enter a workflow.

  • Review every CTA href after the ESP rewrites or tracks links.
  • Confirm image assets are absolute HTTPS URLs before handoff.
  • Check the mobile preview before placing this block into a full workflow.
  • Avoid long centred or tightly packed copy blocks that are hard to scan.
  • Use clear subheadings so each column has an obvious purpose.
  • Gmail (Web + Mobile): Primary structure, spacing, and CTA rendering hold up in Gmail web and mobile views.
  • Outlook Desktop (Windows): Two-column copy can stack early in Outlook desktop views.

Source and output

MJML and HTML remain available

Source stays below the preview and workflow context. Copy MJML when assembling a system, or compiled HTML when preparing ESP handoff. Template Hedgehog Pro includes the full offline archive for teams that need the complete system locally.

Block assembly: place this section inside the same <mj-body> as your other production blocks, then stack sections in send order.
