Microsoft Office workflow for mass email
• Stop laughing! There is a good reason!– Targeting a small, distinguished group– Between CRMs– Many contacts to invite were not properly tracked
(had to dig for information)– A mass mail and a direct mail had already been sent,
to poor results– Emails from a person > emails from a mass mail

How signups were going

Microsoft Office workflow for mass email
Outlook – become boss
Word – write simple copy
Excel – build the list
Unplug ethernet
Merge
Personalize
Plug in and send
![Page 13: Community Organizing Tools from the Experts Webinar](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5556f0bad8b42a0f028b52d0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Excel Build the List
• The standard contact fields • I also added columns for the process:
– First Email– Snail Mail– Personal Mail– Phone Call– Can’t attend– Confirmed
![Page 14: Community Organizing Tools from the Experts Webinar](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5556f0bad8b42a0f028b52d0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Word – Write simple copy• I wrote it as my boss would. Couple short sentences:
Hi «First_Name»,I wanted to personally invite you to the Neil Squire Society’s 30th Anniversary VIP event. It is a private reception for supporters on June 18th at the Vancouver Club from 5pm to 8pm.

Unplug Ethernet
• Because mail merge puts everything in Outbox
![Page 17: Community Organizing Tools from the Experts Webinar](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5556f0bad8b42a0f028b52d0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Mail Merge
• Under your Mailings tab in Word
![Page 18: Community Organizing Tools from the Experts Webinar](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5556f0bad8b42a0f028b52d0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Outlook - Outbox
• Change the Send As / “From” on each one.• Can delay the send time (so you don’t look like
a spam bot to mail servers)• Spend 15 seconds to personalize.
– After event did this process again, added a picture of them to the email.

Plug in and send

What I learned
• This took process drove 70% of signups. The mass mailer and direct mail before this drove 20%.
• People will email back saying yes, or no and why not (I’m away but wish you the best). They don’t go to signup form linked.

TIPS
• Start URL abbreviations with a comma:– ,a = <a href=""></a>
• Prevent conflict with regular words by staring most abbreviations with a duplicate letter– Bbio = biography expansion snippet
• Start with frequently used pieces of text, like your email, address, phone number, etc.
