Editing a Mailshot

  • Select any of the listed Mailshots and press [Edit].
  • Click [Edit the Letter].
  • This should open up Notepad and display a series of codes and text. If you scroll down the page, towards the centre of the document, you will see the text of the letter.
  • Any of the text to the right of the "}" symbol can be edited; eg:
    • ^{M 9,129}Thank you for visiting our showroom
  • can be changed to:
    • ^{M 9,129}Thank you for attending our open evening
  • Please note, any string that begins with an "$" is pulling information from file to print on each individual letter, for example, the customer's name or unit make etc. A list of the items available to go after the "$" can be found under the Variables tag in the Sales Prospecting part of the knowledge base.
  • When you have finished editing the letter, click [File], then [Exit], and click [Yes] to save the changes.
  • Press <Esc> and then click [Accept] and [Finish Editing].

You are now ready to run your amended Mailshot by pressing [Start] and then following the on-screen prompts.
