It is that time of the year again. Time to email friends, business contacts and family… to say thank you for the year, to invite them to parties… maybe even market your special holiday offers.
EmailMerge for Outlook is already used by thousands of Outlook users around the world.
In this post, we show you how you can use it to create one holiday email, and then personalized copies of the same email to as many people as you want.
Your mailing list can be in Outlook… or Excel… or even Salesforce. See links at the end of the post on how to use Excel.
To get you started, we have even created 5 holiday themed email templates that you can download and use today.
If you haven’t done so already, you will need to download and install EmailMerge for Outlook in order to use these templates.
Download and installing the templates
Once you have Email Merge installed…
Click here to download the Outlook Holiday Templates. Save the file to your desktop or other convenient location on your computer (This will be a zip file. You do NOT need to unzip it).

Under Email Merge on the ribbon, click the little arrow and then click Template Manager (to display Email Merge’s built-in template manager)
Select and import the zip file that was downloaded in one of the earlier steps by clicking the Import button.
Click OK. The 5 templates will be imported into your Email Merge for Outlook template list into a category named Christmas Templates.
