Can I send a Mail Merge personalized email to multiple people at once?
Yes! With Cloze, you can send a personalized email to multiple contacts at once.
This feature is designed to help you send a personalized note to multiple people at once, not replace an email marketing tool like ActivePipe or Mailchimp (Tip: You can connect Mailchimp to Cloze too). Each person will receive their own email delivered by your email service just like if you sent a single message. You will see the sent messages in your sent folder outside of Cloze too.
There are two ways to send Mail Merge email with Cloze.
- From the people section
- From the email composer
FROM THE PEOPLE SECTION
A personalized greeting is automatically included for each recipient.
No one is BCC'd. Each person receives their own unique email. Each person will not see the other recipients.
1.) Go to the People section and select the contacts wish to email.
There are several ways to find and select contacts.
- You can tap on the checkmark next to each person
- Select all members of an audience
- Select people with the same tag
- Filter the People section to any criteria you would like
Please note that many email providers limit the number of emails you can send per day. For example, Google's G Suite limits you to 2,000 emails per day. Consumer Gmail accounts are limited to 500 emails per day. GoDaddy limits sending to 250 emails per day. Because of these email-provider sending limit restrictions, we support scheduled mail merge emails to 500 or fewer users.
2.) Tap on the checkmark to select the Bulk Action menu and then select Mail Merge To from the menu.
- Select the bulk action menu
- Select Mail Merge to
3.) The email composer will then show all of the people you have selected in the "To:" line.
Note: The greeting ("Hi Dana") will rotate through each of the names from the people included in the "To:" line so you can see how it will look for each recipient before you send the email.
