Why Email Merge
• Bulk emails can be sent by personalizing each email recipient, as opposed to a CC or BCC.
• A standard letter can be saved and reused.
• Depending on the allowable limits of the email provider- bulk emails can be sent with same content in one click.
Steps
• Log into your Gmail account.
• Create a Google spreadsheet in Google Drive w/ headers:
• First Name
• Last Name
• Email Address
First Name Last Name Email address
Activate Mail-merge on the Spreadsheet
• Go to Tools Script Gallery
• Type “yet another” to find a mail merge script
• Click Install
– Then authorize to grant access to Gmail contacts
• Close the window
• A menu will appear on the spreadsheet: Mail Merge
Step 2- Creating Email
Create an email • Subject • Body of the email • Signature Wherever you want to add any information from
the header field, use $%Header% – Example: Dear $%First Name%. If the first name of the
person is Richard in the spreadsheet the email will appear as Dear Richard.
Save the email as draft
Step 3
• Go back to the spreadsheet • Click on Mail Merge tab and select Standard
Merge • A box will appear
– Select the template just created – Put your own name in My Name field – Click Send Mails button.
• New Column: Merge Status – After the emails were sent out, notice a new Column.
Against each email address it will assign “Done” if the email address was correct.
