The Promotions, Literature Fulfillment, and Events functions allow you to record information about each for your reference. The Mail Merge feature allows you to launch a print mail or email campaign from within On Demand.


Promotions, Literature Fulfillment Requests and Events[edit]

You can add, modify or delete a new Promotion, Literature Fulfillment request or Event from the Home section of the Marketing module.

Mail Merges[edit]

Mail Merge allows you to send email or letters to large volumes of customers or prospects. Each email is sent to an individual contact and the pre-set filters and searches you used to select the recipients will automatically update your list for the next mailing.

Scheduling[edit]

After you select who you wish to send to, and what you wish to send, you may schedule the email job to go Now or Later.

How to Use Templates[edit]

Templates can be accessed from Marketing + Mail Merge, and used for sending large volumes of printed materials or emails to a specific group or list. This is a very effective way of staying in touch with customers or prospects. Groups of names can be saved as lists or saved searches, with the corresponding email template saved, enabling a very simple process to reach contacts with targeted messages. Example: save a search of “New Leads” in a specific territiory or industry, or any other search criteria. Create a template specific to that group (e.g., “New Leads – Commercial”). Whenever new leads are added matching the search criteria they will automatically be included in that email campaign. Keeping your saved searches up to date will make this process seamless.

How to Perform a Mail Merge[edit]

Select the Mail Merge option from the Marketing Module Action Panel and complete the information requested on your screen.
