How to Use Brand Boards in GoHighLevel Emails

If you manage multiple workspaces in tools like ClickUp and need consistent branding, learning how to use brand boards in GoHighLevel emails will save you time and reduce design errors. This guide walks you step by step through creating, managing, and applying brand boards so every email matches your visual identity.

Brand boards in the email builder let you define reusable styles—such as fonts, colors, and paragraphs—and apply them with one click while designing campaigns or automation emails.

What Are Brand Boards in GoHighLevel?

Brand boards in GoHighLevel are collections of reusable text styles that you can apply to email content. They centralize your typography and basic formatting so your newsletters, promotions, and transactional emails stay visually consistent.

Each brand board can hold multiple styles—for example:

  • Primary heading style (H1 look)
  • Subheading style (H2/H3 look)
  • Body text / paragraph style
  • Highlight or callout text style

Once created, these styles appear directly in the email editor. Instead of manually setting fonts and sizes every time, you simply select the style from the brand boards menu.

Accessing Brand Boards in the GoHighLevel Email Builder

To work with brand boards in GoHighLevel, you must open the drag-and-drop email builder from any place you create or edit emails.

Places Where You Can Use GoHighLevel Brand Boards

  • Campaign emails
  • Workflow or automation emails
  • One-off broadcast emails
  • Template-based emails inside your sub-accounts

Brand boards are available directly inside the editor, so you do not need to leave the page or open a separate settings screen while writing your content.

How to Open the Brand Boards Panel in GoHighLevel

When you are in the email builder, you can open the brand boards interface from the global styles section.

  1. Open or create an email in the GoHighLevel drag-and-drop builder.
  2. Locate the Styles or Global Styles area on the left panel.
  3. Find the option labeled Brand Boards.
  4. Click to open the brand boards dropdown or panel.

This panel is where you will create new boards, manage existing ones, and apply styles to selected content blocks.

Creating a New Brand Board in GoHighLevel

Follow these steps to create a new brand board that matches your brand’s visual identity:

  1. Open the email builder in GoHighLevel.
  2. Click the Brand Boards option within the styles panel.
  3. Select Create New Brand Board or a similar button.
  4. Enter a name that clearly describes the brand or client (for example, “Main Brand”, “Client A Newsletter”).
  5. Save the brand board to start adding styles.

Using descriptive names is especially important if you manage several clients or brands inside your GoHighLevel agency account.

Adding Text Styles to a Brand Board in GoHighLevel

After creating a brand board, you can configure multiple text styles that will be available in the email editor.

Defining a Heading Style

  1. In the email builder, select any text block.
  2. Adjust the text properties to match your desired heading style:
    • Font family
    • Font size
    • Font weight (bold, regular)
    • Line height and letter spacing
    • Text color
  3. With the text still selected, open the Brand Boards panel.
  4. Choose your target brand board.
  5. Click an option such as Add Style or Save Current Style.
  6. Give the style a clear label, such as H1 Primary.

Defining a Body Text Style

  1. Select a paragraph text block in the email.
  2. Set your brand’s paragraph formatting, such as:
    • Readable font size (for example, 14–16 px)
    • Primary text color (usually dark gray or black)
    • Line height for better readability
  3. Open the Brand Boards panel again.
  4. Save the current formatting as a new style, named something like Body Text or Paragraph Default.

Repeat this process for all styles you need, like subtitles or highlight text, keeping each one clearly named.

How to Apply Brand Board Styles in GoHighLevel Emails

Once your brand board is configured, applying a style is quick and consistent.

  1. Open the email you want to edit in GoHighLevel.
  2. Click inside any text block where you want to apply a style.
  3. Highlight the specific text or ensure your cursor is inside the block.
  4. Open the Brand Boards menu.
  5. Select the desired brand board from the list.
  6. Click the predefined style (for example, H1 Primary or Body Text).

The text will instantly adopt the saved font, color, and formatting settings, ensuring consistency across all emails.

Editing or Updating Brand Boards in GoHighLevel

Your brand guidelines may evolve over time. You can update your board to match new standards without rebuilding each email from scratch.

Updating an Existing Style

  1. Open any email that uses the brand board you want to update.
  2. Select a text block that uses the style you want to change.
  3. Modify its formatting (for example, change the font size or color).
  4. Open the Brand Boards panel.
  5. Locate the style you want to update and look for an option like Update Style or Save Changes to Style.
  6. Confirm the update.

Future uses of that style will use the updated settings. Existing emails may need to be refreshed depending on how the system caches styles, so always test important campaigns.

Best Practices for Using GoHighLevel Brand Boards

  • Limit the number of styles: Keep only essential headings, subheadings, and body styles to avoid confusion.
  • Use clear naming conventions: Include level and purpose, such as H1 – Main Title or Body – Default.
  • Test across devices: Send test emails to check how brand board styles render on desktop and mobile clients.
  • Standardize per client: Create separate brand boards in GoHighLevel for each client or brand, especially in an agency account.

Why Consistent Branding Matters in GoHighLevel

Using brand boards in GoHighLevel improves both design quality and production speed:

  • Consistency: All emails follow the same typography and color rules.
  • Efficiency: Team members apply styles with a few clicks instead of manually reformatting text.
  • Scalability: Easier to maintain branded emails across multiple funnels, workflows, and automations.
