To be able to quickly set up email campaigns, it is a great idea to set up all the possible template types that you will have. In Activity Stream your templates are called Campaign Types.
You can create a new type on the Campaign Setup page.
If you fill in your default subject line, from email, from name, and reply email remember to also click 'Save as default values for type'. This will ensure that next time you choose this type, it will already pre-fill your values.
