The BEE editor is a simple way to create emails online. Whether or not you're experienced with coding, you can use BEE's HTML templates
to quickly and easily create messages for your brand.
Then use the Amazon SES connector to send those templates to your Amazon account.
Benefits of using BEE templates for Amazon SES
BEE's email templates are a great fit for any brand with big email marketing goals.
The template catalog at BEE includes hundreds of mobile-responsive templates — many of them completely free to use — created by professional
designers. With targeted templates for e-commerce messages, holiday greetings, personal notes and so much more,
it's easy to search the catalog and find the best template for you.
Once you've selected an email template (or opted to create an email from scratch), use the BEE editor to customize the message.
The editor's drag-and-drop feature lets you add your own branded images, font, colors and more. When you're finished with the email,
you can export it to an email service provider of your choice — including your Amazon SES account.
How to use Amazon SES with BEE
To connect your accounts and use Amazon SES email templates, you'll need a BEE Pro account.
This premium account comes with extra features like exclusive templates, team collaboration and the ability

When your BEE Pro account is all set up and ready to go, you can connect it to your Amazon SES account.
How to connect your accounts
From your BEE dashboard, go to "Settings" and then "Connectors". Find Amazon SES and click the purple "Connect" button. In the pop-up, insert the following information: your
AWS key,
your region and (if desired) your account name.
Then you'll be able to connect your accounts.
How to export a template
Want to export a single Amazon SES HTML template from BEE? You can do that, too.
Create the email in the BEE editor and then click "Export message".
Select "Push to your sending system" and then choose Amazon SES from the list of options.
If you haven't already connected your accounts via Settings, you'll need to do that now.
Otherwise, you can immediately send your template to your Amazon account.
You'll find the Amazon SES templates in your Amazon account under "Email Sending" and "Email Templates".
Take your Amazon SES templates to the next level by considering a BEE Agency account.
This subscription is helpful if you're designing messages for several different clients or different applications.
BEE's Agency account gives you the capability to create a designated section in BEE Pro for each client and connect that client
to their own Amazon SES account. The Agency account is a great way to stay organized as you work with an Amazon SES template editor.
