It is the season to reach out to your friends, business contacts and family… to greet them, thank them, invite them to parties… and maybe even market your products to them.
Many Outlook users use Email Merge for Outlook to do this… it lets them create one email and then send out multiple copies of the same email to as many people as they want… each person gets an email addressed only to them… with the email personalized with their name and any other details you want.
Your emails get sent out from Outlook… but you can use mailing lists from many sources… including Outlook, Excel and Access.
We have created 5 holiday themed templates (shown above) that you can download and use today.
You will need to have EmailMerge for Outlook in order to use these template.
