Add merge tags to your message
There is nothing better than a personal touch in business. To personalize your communication, you can use merge tags (also called template variables) to insert customer-specific information into your mailing.
Merge tags come in many forms: those might be the customer's first name, their company name, salutation, the name of the salesperson the customer was dealing with, and so on. In other words, merge tags are your easy-to-use tools to personalize the content for each individual customer.
Steps
Select a text in the message.
Type, for example "Dear ".
Position the mouse pointer after the text and click Merge tags in the toolbar.
In the list that appears, select Contact and First name.
Continue entering text and inserting the merge tags you require. For a list, see the variable reference.
Tip
Before you send out a mailing, you should test that the customer data is correctly inserted in the message.
