How to Send Customized Bulk Emails with Mail Merge in Google Sheets and Gmail

[@ikanngg]

Ive been manually doing emails with their name with a macro pullover and its kinda hard for me. Thank you for this! You save my life. 😊

[@thepovertyagenda]

excellent! After looking around and tying to mass gmail I have at last found a simple and useful mailmerge option. Bless you Guruji!!

[@andreamorgan8935]

You are an angle sent from heaven! Thank you so much ! I love your videos 🤍🤍🤍

[@alexanderhill-cp8be]

FYI: I dont know if the script has changed since this video was made. But you no longer need to add the {{Recipient}} template string into the "To" field as the script code already takes the {{Recipient}} column fields and saves to an Array Variable to handle this. So you can leave the "To" in the email blank and it will still work.

[@iancarr3923]

I could not make this work if the draft email in gmail was closed. Might make sense but inconvenient.

[@patriciashawwatkins2901]

Thank you! Your presentation solved my problem, just in time.👏

[@fredmanteghian5555]

It is January 2024. I don't have a mail merge tag. I've built my own spreadsheet and am trying to use the 'two people' icon on the "To" line to use the built in gmail method of mail merge with a spreadsheet. But trying both {{ }} and @ for the variable names, it doesn't work.

[@abikersdiary]

Same problem with me

[@RobGoldstein]

you need to use that spread sheet because it has a script attached to it that creates the mail merge tag. Just edit the sheet to meet your needs

[@webpromo]

Can you set this up so there is a column for Attachments (referenced in Google Drive) so that each dynamic email has a file attachment as listed in the Attachments column?

[@avnishaggarwal]

Yes you can. Make sure the the access to the drive is public.

[@ChandruSD-m4y]

Hi, good info, I would like to know mail merge using Gmail and spread sheet by attaching any document. Do you have that showcased?

[@walterharley6049]

Outstanding! I will create one to use. Thanks.

[@TeachersTech]

You’re welcome!

[@GloryAdk]

Thank you for this, It has been super helpful

[@Orvillerede100]

Is there a way to get the script or the mail merge tab up to to save in the excel sheet permanently?? Every time I close out of the tab and come back later that day or the next day, I have to redo making the copy again and then copy and pasting the data into it again

[@GuilleTryx]

It works perfectly! Thanks so much!

[@eugenesintos5676]

Hi I tried adding Cc column but its not sending to the email on Cc column I created. Is there a script available with Cc functionality?

[@manjushagonjari554]

Thank you so much, Can you guide how to attach PDF in same scenarion, PDF will be same for all emails?

[@EMIGDIODANCELPANGANJR]

Thank you very much, Sir! You have been a great help to me.

[@dilhanmaduranga6455]

Could you please tell me how many total emails, can i send in a single time? because I need to send bulk emails with different attachments.

[@abigailelisemoore201]

I have tried this many times however, it is saying that I have to verify the app with Google before it will work. Any tips on what to do?

[@ItsNarwhalPlaysMC]

Thank you so much for this. Literally saved me so much time. Super easy and customizable!

[@thomaseckschmidt7881]

Its not working. The body wont recognize the {{}} fields - Anyone knows what the instruction is to add field to the body of the email? or is there another command that has to be added to the MailMerge?

[@GeorgeAgyeiWireko]

Facing the same issue, the body doesn't fetch the fields.

[@alvansam2157]

Thank you so much for your teaching style. I appreciated that.

[@jamilfitt3932]

For me, nothing pastes in the mail that is between the brackets. I copy, double brackets but still nothing pastes when I get the mail. How can I fix this? Thanks

[@michaelkolawoleadekanye757]

Same for me

[@KabirsFamilyVlogs]

very nice sharing sir.

[@TeachersTech]

Glad you liked it!

[@misiyengar6966]

Thank you so much for this...do you know what can we do to add a "cc recipient" as well? Copy pasting the recipient column doesn't work, is there a fix for this?

[@MarielMallorca-l1f]

Thank you for the informative discussion. This is helpful.

[@SchubertvilleVideos]

Thank you. Can I modify the script to transfer the information to a pdf or Google doc instead?

[@MarketUS]

great tip. even though I am in my one account, the copy saves it in my other account. how do I force it to my first account. thanks.

[@imtiazikramirfan597]

is it possible to make schedule mail with mail merge ?

[@TaskLinkerAdministration]

Great Video. Is there a way to also add in a signiture block that is saved to your gmail account>>??

[@iamnancybassett]

Thanks! This was super helpful.

[@ChadJarratt]

Hi!!! it works but for some reason the name field is not showing up in my email test, can't figure out what?

[@laiyungcheung9543]

Hi, thank you so much for your tutorial. I am using a domain email which already connected to gmail. May I ask that is this mail merge enable to send bulk emails which using the domain email as the "sender"? Because there seems no choice for the senders, but I need to send the emails by the domain email. thanks so much!

[@richardcwhite1]

IF IT IS NOT WORKING READ THIS: 1. click on the 3 dots next to the bin icon in your composed mail 2. select 'Plain test mode' 3. Delete the contents of 'Email sent' in your spreadsheet. It'll work now. You're welcome ;-)😀

[@CCSD_DoSS]

Thank you! This was super helpful!!!

[@andrewtglessner4445]

YES! After turning on Plain Text Mode, you can turn it off again and it should work.

[@vedantpathak9510]

Turn on Plain Text Mode, and then before sending don't forget to turn it off or else content will not be formatted a you wish it to be. @richardcwhite1 & @andrewtglessner4445 Thanks for the help!

[@RobGoldstein]

Thank you this solved my problem. Once I figured out it will work when I turn it off everything was perfect.

[@DavidDorenfeld]

Thank you! Very helpful

[@wasiqsuhail]

That was an excellent video very informative and helpful, kindly let me know if we can add tabs into the same spreadsheet and will that work if yes how would it work for each tab?

[@MattJPortch]

[@RefereeDepartmentMFF]

Hello, thank you for share it. I have question. It didn't work properly when I added extra column in the sheets. Please could you fix it?

[@HildaOvereem]

I've followed your instructions to the letter several times and I keep getting an error that says Google hasn't authorised this script. What have you done that you are not explaining in the video.

[@michaelpichardo]

What other use cases exist for this?

[@pavelteply1704]

Hello, I tried you script but constantly get an error: "Exception: the initial column of the range is too small." could you help?

[@JOSE-du7mu]

If you delete the "email sent" date stamp, it will send again, how about if you don't delete the date stamp, will it skip it or re-send the email? Just need to know a trigger to keep a log and not re-send all of them again, just the blank date stamps.

[@ictdirector7892]

Hi, the placeholder does not work in the subject and body of the email but the email is delivered anyway. Any help? Thank you

[@kelseygerber4195]

hi, can you help with an error message? "Invalid argument: inlineImages". I can successfully send the email script from my email, but I can't send it from a different email. Do you know what this might be?

[@criticalhype6223]

How come I get this message "Invalid argument: inlineImages" on the email sent column when I add a pic to the email draft? Pictures are essential in the bulk emails I need to send out and I can't imagine the developers of MailMerge wouldn't create this with people like me in mind that need to attach Pictures on these emails, smh. This is frustrating please help, am I doing something wrong? There must be some way to send emails with pics right? Thanks for the video I got the test to work without tyhe pictures but anytime I add them I keep getting this message "Invalid argument: inlineImages"

[@SummonSiddiqui-d5j]

how do i put spaces between the text? For me its all clumping together even though I copied your format.

[@carolynbates2925]

I can achieve individual emails BUT am unable to add other recipient specific information in the Body of the email. I've checked I'm using {{ and }} before and after the field name. I am copying and pasting the name of each field within the curly brackets, but nothing is included in the email received. Any suggestions what else I should try? Thanks.

[@carolynbates2925]

It seems: {{}} tags in the body of the email must be plain text "to be read by the script". I also found when I copied and pasted from Google Sheets, some headings had additional spaces, they also needed to be removed (at the start / end of the field heading), the space between eg {{First name}} worked OK, but if it had {{ First name }} that was not read.

[@barrydeniger]

I want to ask you please how to track emails with mail merge if open or not

Hi, I can only seem to run this **once, then the "Email Sent" is never refreshed - it goes from "Running Script" to "Finished Script" without sending anything. Do I need to reset anything to make it run again?

[@richardcwhite1]

Make sure the "Email sent" cell is blank. once it's written in the revised email won't send

[@JACETrustingHands]

Spreadsheet is unmodified. Anyone knows why the placeholders in my draft email are not picking up the data in the spreadsheet. I'm copying and pasting and there is no errors in the name in the email draft. Please advise if you know what is going on. Thanks
