Remember when product launches in the late ’90s were like pop stars making a comeback? A “Now Live!” in Verdana font, a tiny JPEG loading one pixel at a time on dial-up. That anticipation was pure magic.
Just look at the Backstreet Boys. When they dropped “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back),” they basically moonwalked their way through Michael Jackson’s playbook: spooky mansion, horror vibes, killer choreography.
But these days, launch emails aren’t just a “Hey, here’s our thing you might’ve seen before.” Oh no. They’re full-on hype tours in the inbox. Think Barbie-level PR blitz with all the hooks, recs, and collabs. The buildup’s almost as big as the debut… and AJ’s hat choices.
So when you’re planning a launch campaign that goes all out, you’re gonna need inspiration. Lucky you — we’ve got the biggest collection of product launch emails on the web.

P.S. Here are the results of last week's weird poll thingy. Keep an eye out for another question this week.
Question: If your Prime Day campaign were a person, how would they prep for the big day?
Results and what it probably means about email makers: Most of you wish you were the smug scheduler, feet up, quietly judging the chaos from a safe distance. In reality? Half of you are still chasing last-minute approvals while your stakeholders sunbathe on PTO, or cruising right past deadlines pretending Prime Day is just another Tuesday. Deep down, this shows we all dream of control but secretly thrive in the scramble.
