Want to share documents with your entrants or club members through PerfDog's Send Email feature? While attachments aren't currently supported, there's a handy workaround using Google Docs (or similar services)!
Here's how to share documents in bulk emails:
Create Your Document:
Use a platform like Google Docs, Dropbox Paper, or Microsoft Word Online to create your document.
Include all the information you want to share with your recipients.
Share the Document Link:
Once your document is ready, set the sharing permissions to allow access for the intended audience. This typically involves clicking a "Share" button and choosing the appropriate settings.
Copy the document's sharing link. This link will allow anyone with access to view the document.
Compose Your Bulk Email:
In PerfDog create your email in "Send Email"
Paste the document's sharing link into the email body. You can add a brief message explaining what the document contains.
Benefits of Using a Shared Link:
Accessibility: Recipients can access the document from any device with an internet connection, eliminating the need for large file downloads.
Updates & Collaboration: You can easily update the original document, and the changes will be reflected for everyone with access to the link. This is especially useful for sharing dynamic information.
Reduced File Size: By using a link, you avoid sending large attachments that may clog inboxes or exceed email size limits.
Additional Tips:
Descriptive Document Title: Choose a clear and informative title for your document, making it easy for recipients to understand its contents.
Brief Email Message: Keep your email message concise, highlighting the purpose of the document and the link for easy access.
Consider Permissions: For sensitive documents, adjust the sharing settings on the document itself to ensure only authorized users can view it.
By adopting this link-sharing approach, you can efficiently distribute documents to a large group of recipients through PerfDog's "Send email" feature.
