Email Templates

by rrao

Email templates are extremely useful for Sales, Support and SE or any one who constantly sends out the same email on a regular basis.

How to create Templates

This Zimlet uses existing emails(nothing special) as templates. So, to create templates, simply send few emails yourself. You can use generic names technique to replace common words. And just before inserting the template Zimlet will alert you to replace them.

For example: You could have "hi ${firstName}" in the body or in the subject.

Setup

 

  1. After you have created few template emails, move all these emails to some central folder, say "Sales Templates".
  2. Set this folder as your templates repository by going to Preferences > "Set Templates Folder" button
  3. Refresh browser

 

How to use

With two clicks you can insert a Template of your choice. You can insert in three formats.

 

  1. Just the body of the template,
  2. Both body & subject
  3. Body, Subject & Participants.

 

Templates in Calendar

You can use any of these templates in Calendar. For example, you can create a template with Conference-call details. You don't have to search for those details anymore, Isn't that cool?

Sharing Templates with others in the team

Simply share your templates folder and ask your team members to point the Zimlets to this shared folder.
