Permissions
Bulk Email is available to user admins of the BrandHub, only.
How to access Bulk Email
Admin users can access Bulk Email via the Apps menu from the top navigation bar, under the item 'Email my users'.
Writing an email
Subject
This is a mandatory field and accepts plain text only, there is no maximum character limit but this maybe subject to individual email clients. This field is then applied as the email subject.

Typography
We use a standardised approach with the Bulk Email tool and all emails use the font family; Helvetica.
Font sizes are predetermined for each of the font type options; H1, H2, H3, H4 and paragraph.
Dynamic information
Using the buttons 'First name' and 'Surname' the admin user can dynamically address the email to users creating a more flexible and personal method.
Recipients & Sending an email
To choose who to send the email to, the admin can check the different permissions below the body field. The email will be sent to all users who have those permissions.
To send a preview email to themselves, the user should ensure that 'Only send to me' is selected. Please note; to help, this will also automatically disable the other options as a safety precaution.
To send the email to all selected recipients, click send once you're happy with the set up.
