# Select a Template

The first step in sending an email campaign is preparing the content. Rechat allows you to create beautiful email campaigns from scratch. But it also provides countless templates prepared for many different occasions, which you can pick and customize.

For example, if you have a new listing you want to advertise, Rechat offers a prepared set of **Just Listed** templates you can choose.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title=" 🖥️ Desktop" %}

1. From the main menu click on **Marketing**.
2. The top navigation allows you to browse through our templates. All templates regarding properties and listings are categorized under **Properties** tab. Hover over it.
3. You will see the **Just Listed** category.\
   Below, you can choose Email or Social.\
   This guide covers email marketing but you can check out our guide for [Social marketing](/guides/marketing/marketing-center/social-marketing.md).
4. Click on **Email.**\
   Here, you can see previews for our available templates.\
   Once you find a template you like, hover over it and click on **Customize**.
5. A drawer will open up which will ask you to enter a listing. Rechat can automatically load photos, descriptions and information from any MLS listing.\
   Either pick one of your active listings or search for any listing using the search bar.
6. Once you find the listing, select it. That's it!
   {% endtab %}
   {% endtabs %}

{% hint style="info" %}
In this example, you to created a **Just Listed** template. But the same procedure applies to all Rechat templates. You can explore all categories. The **Properties** tab takes you through listing-based templates but we have plenty more. [**Birthday**](https://app.rechat.com/dashboard/marketing/Birthday)**,** [**Wedding Anniversary**](https://app.rechat.com/dashboard/marketing/WeddingAnniversary)**,** [**Home Anniversary**](https://app.rechat.com/dashboard/marketing/HomeAnniversary)**,** [**Holidays**](https://app.rechat.com/dashboard/marketing/WeddingAnniversary) and many more occasions.

If you would rather create an email from scratch, browse through the [**Newsletter**](https://app.rechat.com/dashboard/marketing/Newsletter) category.
{% endhint %}
