Changing the overall background color in email

I can change the background color of an individual module in regular template mode by adding inline styling, however, I want to change the overall background color of my email to #cccccc.  When I clone the email to .html file and update all the background color tolkens with the hex code (tried both with and without #), it still doesn't update the background. Please help!

 

I'm essentially trying to replicate the basic design of this email with an overall gray background and a white module within it.

Changing the overall background color in email

If you are using email templates to create your marketing emails, then the easiest way is to go to Designs Tools module in HubSpot, either create a new Email template or clone an existing one.
Then in the template, under Head and body options > Additional <head> markup > click on Expand and add the following code:

<style>
#bodyCell {background-color: #edfaff!important;}
#templateTable {background-color: #edfaff!important;}
#headerTable {background-color: #edfaff!important;}
#contentCell {background-color: #edfaff!important;}
#footerTable {background-color: #edfaff!important;}
</style>

Preview the email template and make any changes to the background-color values as per your requirement for each section of the email template.
Publish changes and then start creating your marketing email using this template.

Changing the overall background color in email

To all looking to know how to do this in a drag n drop email template, without changing the background color globally, you need to add a style tag to the head of your email template

<style type="text/css" data-hse-inline-css="true">
/*replace #cccccc with your background color hex code, do not use shorthand hex codes like #333 use the full 6 character version*/
#backgroundTable{background-color:#cccccc!important;}
</style>

The data-hse-inline-css will inline your css into the html itself.

Changing the overall background color in email

It's a global setting under Settings: Marketing: email:
Not one at a time, but easily change the default for all the templates.
