TravelJoy: Becoming the team’s email hero

TravelJoy: Becoming the team’s email hero

"Beefree transformed my workflow and made me prouder of my work." – Matt Byrd, Head of Marketing, TravelJoy

TravelJoy is an all-in-one platform for travel advisors to manage their whole end-to-end business, from building itineraries to collecting payments. Matt Byrd, TravelJoy's sole marketer, manages everything from content creation to product launches. With 14 years of experience as an email marketer & developer, Matt has high standards for email design. However, his email platform's restrictive email builder left him frustrated, wasting time and limiting his creativity.

Transitioning from hard-coding to no-coding

Faced with a feature launch, Matt searched for a more efficient way to create emails. His skepticism toward WYSIWYG editors, based on past disappointments, initially led him to doubt Beefree. He feared the tool would export “trash code” that would require extensive cleanup. But Beefree exceeded his expectations—its clean HTML output tested well across all platforms and required no additional fixes.

An easy drag-and-drop editor, with granular controls

Beefree allowed Matt to quickly create professional-looking emails that mirrored the quality of hand-coded designs without the time-consuming manual work. The drag-and-drop interface, combined with the flexibility to make granular design adjustments, gave Matt the freedom he needed. "I could get as nuanced as I wanted, adjusting everything down to the border radius on individual sections," Matt explains.

75% faster workflow, higher quality emails

Using Beefree, Matt reduced his email creation time by 75%, allowing him to focus on other marketing tasks. The improved design quality garnered praise from TravelJoy’s internal team and customers. "The product team loved the new emails. They made me look like a hero," he shares.

Beefree enhanced the aesthetics and engagement of TravelJoy’s emails and boosted Matt's confidence and job satisfaction. “I feel proud of the work I’m producing,” he says. The flexibility and ease of use allowed him to create emails that better aligned with TravelJoy’s brand, all while saving significant time.

Achieving peace of mind with Beefree’s clean code 

Matt recommends Beefree to other time-strapped marketers looking for a powerful email builder that delivers clean code and professional results. “I want my emails to look designed by hand, but they don't have to be coded by hand", he states. With Beefree, you can transform your email marketing efforts, saving time and enhancing your creative output. “If you want to save time and still look professional, Beefree is the way to go," he advises.
