<!-- Invite follow-up (minimal) — built 2026-07-20 from the as-sent Beta Invitation (2026-07-17).
To: 7/17 invite recipients with no beta account yet.
Subject: "Your invite is still open" · From: EmojiCopy · Reply-To: hello@emojicopy.com
Deliberately the shortest email in the sequence: one line, one quiet fact pill, one CTA.
Rev 2026-07-20: NO offer/promo content in this send — the first-500 pill was replaced
with the blog's still-free framing (pre-change file in drafts/). We want them to try it.
Rev 2 same day: copy locked, pill container retired as flat. This build = TILES treatment
(tile row in the fact slot, Unicode emoji in table cells — no image assets; the inline rotate()
tilt renders in Apple Mail/iOS and degrades to straight tiles in Gmail/Outlook). TYPE and BAND
alternatives live on the mockup page; swapping is a one-block change.
Rev 3 same day: "i didnt say touch the top" — the ✨ + headline hero is LOCKED; a
tiles-as-hero build was reverted (in drafts/). Only the fact slot varies, ever. -->

SENDGRIDIN SENDGRID 2026-07-20: Design Library → “EmojiCopy — Invite Follow-Up” (design 70a0b2e3-1d5b-4d85-8f74-d769ddcfd253, subject “Your invite is still open”) — written into the library per review, NOT Dynamic Templates. The library copy uses {{{unsubscribe}}} / {{{unsubscribe_preferences}}}, which substitute in Marketing Campaigns sends; the repo file email-invite-reminder.sendgrid.html keeps the ASM raw-url tags for the Email-API path (that route needs asm: {group_id, groups_to_display}). Build: table-based, inline styles, hosted PNG logo, Unicode emoji tiles (inline rotate() renders in Apple Mail/iOS, straight in Gmail/Outlook), no “You signed up at…” footer line. No offer content in this send (7/20); hero locked (7/20) — tiles sit in the fact slot, never replace the ✨. Sequencing: this replaces the “Still saving you a spot” send as the next touch — push that one back (or retire it) so reminders keep getting shorter, never stack.
