Overview
Once email recipients are selected in ChamberMaster/GrowthZone, there are two methods of sending the email.
- Using ChamberMaster/GrowthZone's built in email tool.
- Using Microsoft Outlook (if installed on your computer).
Depending on your needs, you may choose to send some email directly from ChamberMaster/GrowthZone and some from Microsoft Outlook. Each method has its own strengths.
Advantages to Sending Email with ChamberMaster/GrowthZone

- Gives access to current addresses in your database
- Ability to create “mail merge” emails
- Ability to embed attachments as links
- Ability to use templates
- Ability to schedule the email for future delivery (for users of the Plus edition or greater)
Advantages to Sending Email with Outlook

Both methods of sending email will record in the Communication History. See Recording Communication History for more information.
