Handy tips

  • You can set up Email Templates to send to your clients, and include links, images and attachments. All emails are sent from within that task, so you have a record of all relevant correspondence.
  • You can create a Task Type called 'Website Enquiry' or 'Sales Enquiry', and save all the relevant documentation to the Documents & Photos tab of the task type. That way, pricing schedules, case studies, promotional brochures and so on will be attached by default when the task is created.
  • You can even create a separate Business Unit for website enquiries. This allows you to manage these enquiries completely separately from your main business. Before doing this, we recommend talking to our Customer Service team for advice.
