Ralph Lauren, 6/11 — Save The Date: The Legends Clinic LIVE With Boris Becker
Borrowing a page from B2B marketers’ playbook, Ralph Lauren includes an “Add to Calendar” call-to-action in this email to help remind interested subscribers about the “clinic” with Boris Becker. I wonder if this approach would also work with store events and even online and offline sales.

Here’s the landing page for the “Add to Calendar” CTA:

The organization may be a little confusing in this email and the section on the Blackberry and Android apps feels stapled onto the end, but Walgreens is the first major retailer to promote either a Blackberry or Android app in their emails.

The add to calendar is a great idea! I think this will catch on, not only in the retail arena but also in the small business world. Keep up the great posts.
