# 15 Insurance Email Marketing Templates

Email returns $42 per $1 spent but most insurance emails get only 21% open rates. These 15 templates across four categories consistently hit 35%+.

**Policy Lifecycle**: Welcome (65%+ open rate), annual review (42%), renewal reminder (55%), birthday (48%). **Educational**: Seasonal risk alert (38%), new product (35%), claims guide (33%), FAQ (31%). **Referral & Growth**: Referral request (28%), testimonial share (34%), cross-sell (30%), reactivation (36%). **Seasonal**: AEP/OEP notification (45%), tax season (40%), year-end review (38%).

Key principle: event-triggered emails outperform scheduled newsletters by 3x. Send 2–4x/month max for marketing; policy lifecycle emails should be event-triggered.
