Black Friday countdown template in blocks

This is the template for the email that opens the campaign. Black matches the name of the event and yellow stands out on it without tiring the eye, so it reads as Black Friday before anyone reads a word. The boxes keep days and hours clearly apart while there are still several days to go.

Black Friday countdown GIF: white digits in black boxes with a yellow top bar, showing days, hours, minutes and seconds
Real GIF rendered by the Kauntodaun engine. 704 × 146 px · 24.2 KB 30-second sample loop.

Use it in the announcement and reuse the same URL in every reminder. The GIF is worked out when the email is opened, so each send shows the time left at that moment, not on the day you scheduled it.

The digits are set in Archivo Black, a heavy typeface that stays legible when a phone scales the image down. The yellow bar above each box is the only touch of color; everything else is white on black.

It counts to a fixed date, the same for your whole list. Set the closing time in your store's time zone, and when it reaches zero the timer shows "Black Friday is over" or disappears, whichever you choose.

Blocks is a free style: you create it without signing up and it carries no watermark while the timer stays under 25,000 impressions a month. Paste it into an HTML block in Klaviyo or a Code block in Mailchimp, and into a custom Liquid section in Shopify Email.
