You might need to send mass emails using an excel spreadsheet many times. This article can help you if you are tired of sending these emails over and over again.

Before we get into the details of sending mass emails from Excel, let’s first learn the basics.

What’s Mass Email?

Mass emails can be a great way to increase your email marketing ROI. You can send them to people who share the same interests, business contacts, prospects, etc.

It is important to track mass emails so that you can properly compile the data. This is why mass emailing from Excel is easier than other platforms.

Why should you use an Excel Spreadsheet for mass emailing?

Excel spreadsheets are free and offer more flexibility than other email marketing software.

Excel is a great tool for sending a message, a newsletter, or quick messages. You can add attachments, change the subject line and even send different types of emails.

How can I create an email template using excel?

This guide will demonstrate how to create an Excel email template.

To send mass emails, we will use a template that you can customize with your content.

Step 1 – Create a new Excel worksheet. Let’s get to the basics of this guide. You don’t need to create additional tabs as we will be adding content and switching between sheets later.

Step 2 – If you want your template’s full potential, (i.e. to be fully functional and simple to manage), then the ‘The Basic’s section is a must. Your basic requirement for the ‘The Basic’s section is a text box; let’s call this the subject line. Next, add some quick formulas we can use later for different purposes (more details below).

Step 3 – It’s important for people to receive your email templates and newsletters as often as they can. A simple, clean sheet that can be filled with new information is useful in this instance.

Step 4 – Your last sheet will be the one that you most frequently look at (unless your contact list gets too large!). I created a simple sheet with the bold headline ‘Content’. We would generally place short articles in this column if they were written by people. Let’s create some content using this basic worksheet since our example follows the guidelines.

How can I add recipients to my email template?

Follow these steps to add recipients to your email template:

1. Select the mail merge tool in Excel.

2. Click on “Mail Merge Recipients”, then click “Add from List.”

3 Next, choose the recipients you have previously created in a worksheet in your workbook.

Sending mass emails from Excel

You may be thinking, “This seems like a lot of effort and it may not work in my business.” You don’t have to be concerned about this.

These steps will allow you to send mass emails from Excel:

Create a spreadsheet listing the content that you would like to include in your email template. Your message’s body should be simple. All that is required is a connection between the data before and after it is read.

The second step is to divide the spreadsheet into sections, either by quarters or chapters, depending on what makes sense. However, the groups don’t have to be identical.

Headers should be placed at the start of each section. A logo that represents your company/business may also be used.
