NOTE: The features described below are included in the Professional subscription level. You can upgrade your subscription anytime from the Account menu on your PostMyParty dashboard.


Emails can be created in a variety of places throughout the PostMyParty dashboard, including:

  • Email Campaigns - used to publish and schedule emails to your contacts.

  • Email Library - used to create and store individual emails

  • Email Sequences - automate a series of emails for those who have RSVP'd to a group.




How to create a new email:

In any of the locations mentioned above, you'll come across a Create Email button. When this button is used, a new window will pop up where you'll be creating a new email.

  1. Enter the Email Name (for your reference only), and Subject (what your recipients will see).

  2. Click the Edit Email Content button to open the editing tool, where you'll be creating the email.


    • Choose either the Create from Scratch option, or a pre-made template you'd like to edit.


    • This brings you to our Email Editor tool. You can build and customize your email with the various elements available.

Tips:

  • Click any purple + buttons on the email to add a new element such as text, images, link buttons, dividers, and columns.

  • Use the righthand column to customize each element such as changing the colors, text, formatting, fonts, links, and uploading images.

  • Add tokens to any text portion of your email.

    • {{firstname}}

    • {{lastname}}

    • {{phone}}

    • {{email}}

    The system will pull from the contact info submitted for each person you're sending this to, and auto-fill that information.

  • Once finished, click the Save button at the top.

You'll be directed back to the Edit Email screen.


IMPORTANT:

⭐ You must be sure to click the Save Changes button here to save this email to your account.
