newsletters
Newsletters are just one of many standard mailings that you can set up in thankQ. With any such mailings, thankQ will ensure all relevant mailing preferences are applied. Therefore, for a given type of mailing such as a newsletter, each contact will receive the communication at the appropriate address, with the right salutation and via the right medium (e.g. e-mail, post, SMS, etc.) saving you costly mistakes in wasted postage or the embarrassment of wrongly addressed letters.
Where no preference is specified, the system will use the default address for each contact and notify you if there is no address recorded.
attachments
When you email your members or volunteer organisations you will often need to attach a variety of different electronic materials. The entire email, including its attachments can be logged into thankQ at the click of a button, ensuring a record of all communication – email, written or even verbal can be held in one central location.
mailing & email
All mailings are processed using the Mail Manager module, transforming your mailing into much more than a list of labels from the database. The mailing is taken through a series of procedurally controlled steps (workflow), ensuring the contacts to be loaded, configured, sorted and merged in a controlled way.
The interface provides you with the ability to carefully include or exclude specific groups or individual contacts. You can Mailsort or segment the data, before merging it to a choice of formats including Microsoft Word (for letters or labels), a text file, a database for a fulfilment house or straight to your e-mail application.
The use of the powerful ‘thank you rules’ built into thankQ allows you to build up personalised letters based on the specific attributes of contacts and their donation or mailing history.
