You will find that the combination of Google Sheets and Gmail is more than enough to replace a heavy email platform. You can even customize the design of your emails with HTML templates.

👉 Cold emailing from Gmail: run efficient cold emailing or follow-up campaign right from Gmail and drive more sales.

👉 Launching a product or service: it’s the D-day and you want to announce your AppSumo, Kickstarter or Product Hunt launch to everyone? Use Mailmeteor to spread the news!

👉 Link building: if you want to build authority backlinks, a good idea is to use email outreach through Mailmeteor. It will help reach out to bloggers and journalists without ending up in their spam folder.

👉 PR & Communications: reach out easily to journalists or influencers and track answers.

👉 Events invitations and events management: Inviting people to an event (a webinar, wedding, job-dating, fair, conference, meetup, your wedding…) and collecting answers from a large list of guests and invitees.

👉 School, Colleges & Universities communications: a mail merge is the best medium for teach-parent communications, as well as diffusing information to your students.

👉 Sending holidays greetings: a mail merge is perfect to greet your colleagues, friends, and family at different periods of the year (New Year’s Eve wishes, birthdays or Holidays…)

👉 Job hunting: apply to many job offers at once and track the status of your application straight from a spreadsheet.

👉 Automating tedious email tasks: in the end, Mailmeteor is the way to go if you have a bunch of emails to send from Gmail and you want to avoid the pain of manually composing each email!

In case you are wondering, Mailmeteor is the best alternative to software like Lemlist, Gmass, Yesware or Yet Another Mail Merge (YAMM)

➤ Get started

1️⃣ Add contacts in Google Sheets. Open Google Sheets, then fill your sheet with recipients' data. Each column represents a personalized field. Column titles will be used as variables in your email.
2️⃣ Run Mailmeteor by going to the Add-ons menu > Mailmeteor > Open Mailmeteor. Create an email template directly in the Mailmeteor interface. Add variables using double brackets like this: {{firstname}}. Variables must match column titles.
3️⃣ Once you're done setting up the campaign, you're all set to preview, receive a test email, and send!
