New Year nostalgia: Year in review
Before we move forward to a new year, many of us like to look back. This is what makes the year in review concept great for your New Year email campaign.
Looking back on the previous year is a fun way to celebrate together with your customers. This could be significant events in your sector, important business achievements, or the customer's personal milestones.
This email is a nice take on the year in review concept. Boohoo invites customers to look back on some of their best styles by including images of influencers and celebrities wearing their clothes.

New Year's resolutions
Each year, many of us make New Year's resolutions to try and better ourselves. If your business can play on this, it would be a great theme for your New Year email campaign.
Popular resolutions include reading more, working out, learning a new skill, or finding a hobby. Try and find ways your business can capitalise on this and encourage your customers to get on board.
This inspiring example by Duolingo is perfect for anyone wishing to improve their skillset in the coming year. The simple layout and bold CTA (call-to-action) help customers get started right away.
