Sessionboard makes it easy to communicate with your event participants directly through the platform.
Create an Email
Within the module you intend to send your email from (Contacts, Speakers, Sessions, Sponsors, or Exhibitors), check the box next to the record(s) you wish to email, then click the Send button at the top of the page.
💡 TIP: To send an email to more than one contact/session/group, select all of the contacts/sessions/groups you would like to email or click the first square to select all within the page.
Within the pop-up module, select an option from the field 'Send to:' and add the email address to which replies will be redirected (Replies sent to:).
Optional: Send up to five copies of your email using CC and BCC.
On the right side of the window, create your email by adding a subject and message body. If you wish to use an email template that you have created, select "Insert a message template".
Once you have built your email, select the orange 'Review' button at the bottom of the window to preview what your email will look like for each recipient.
To send the emails, select the orange 'Send Emails' button to confirm your action on the next screen.
💡 TIP: Increase the number of contacts/sessions/groups you see within your dashboard to show 100 records.
When sending emails, only 100 emails can be sent at one time. Contacts/sessions/groups that exceed 100 will need to be sent in groups.
