How to Share MailChimp Templates With Non-MailChimp Users
Open rates might not be like they were in the early 2,000's, but email still forms the marketing backbone of thousands of small businesses. Knowing how to leverage it to its full potential is crucial—especially when it comes to working with other partners on cobranded email blasts.

Despite the scary text that makes it sound as if you'll lose all of your saved work, just click where it says "Export Template." So far, so good—right? Well, here's where the majority of confusion comes in...
After exporting your template as an HTML file, you'll receive a file download button. If you're using Safari this will appear under the downloads arrow on the top right of your browser, or if you're using Chrome—at the bottom left.
Rather than click on the file and open it (as you would a normal download), place your cursor over the HTML download file and drag it onto the desktop. Attach the file to an email, and send it. Now you're done, it's as simple as that!
