Creating email templates allows you to easily email your event contacts. The email template can include merge fields for session, speaker, sponsor, or exhibitor-specific details.
Create Email Templates
To create a template, navigate to Settings > Email Templates within your event dashboard and click the orange "Add" button at the top right-hand corner of your screen.
There is no limit to how many templates you can create. Templates will be ordered alphabetically (A-Z) by the template name.
Sessionboard provides a standard "Accept" and "Decline" email template that can be customized for your event use. These templates can not be deleted.
Within the pop-up window, customize your email to include:
-
Template Name: Internal Name
-
Module: This determines the merge fields available to use as well as where the template can be used within the platform.
-
Groups: Exhibitor and Sponsor Modules
-
People: Contacts and Speakers Modules
-
Sessions: Sessions Module Only
-
❗If you change a template module after you begin typing the message body, the current merge tags will not be valid. Please ensure to reapply your merge tags as they differ per module.
