How do I Create Custom Email Templates in CRM Apps?

Updated on January 23, 2019 09:05PM by Admin

The Email/Message Templates are pre-defined message formats that you can send to your contacts. You can design an email template, to make your email look standardized rather than sending plain text.

Note: All the created email templates, are app-specific. That is, an email template created in the Leads App cannot be accessed from the Opportunities App.

Consider an employee (Katie Dustin), who wants to send followup emails to her team members or potential customers. In that case, she can create an email template in the corresponding apps. This allows her to choose the layout, and include the required message content and send emails quickly.

Go through the following steps.
