Gmail is a popular email tool that allows you to send communications to a large number of individuals. With this integration, you can choose which Gmail account to send broadcast emails from.
In order to add a Broadcast Gmail account, you must have an existing Google Account. If you have this and are logged in, you can generate an app password by clicking here. On that page, type your Gmail account in the App Name field and click Create. Use the generated 16 letter password to create your Gmail account in ISP.
How do I add the Gmail integration in ISP?
Under the Integrations tab, select Add/Remove Integrations, type Gmail in the search bar to pull up quickly, or scroll down through the Available section until you see Broadcast Email: Gmail. Click on it to install it.
How does the integration work?
After you’ve installed the integration, click the Tools menu, then click Broadcast Emails. On this page, click the Add Email Template option in the bottom left and create your email template.
Emails are sent through Advanced Search. Once you’ve created your template, navigate to the Add/Search menu, then click Advanced Search.
Using Advanced Search, devise a recipe to isolate the individuals you want to email. After running your search and obtaining the desired results, select Exports & Actions at the bottom, then select Send Broadcast Email. From here, you can select the template you previously created and send the email to everyone in your list. Any emails sent will automatically be logged as Communications on the individual’s or organization’s record.
You cannot set a forward address to receive emails from anyone who responds because this is a standard email inbox that can be used as usual.
Unfortunately, Gmail does not offer analytics about open, bounce, and click-through rates.
