Mass Mail For Free with eM Client

Cheaper and Easier than a CRM or Mailchimp: Sending Mass Email for Free with eM Client

Many times a selling point for a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tool or email marketing tool like Mailchimp is it's ability to send mass emails. This often takes the form of being able to use variables like name, title, and more, to personalize a templated email. While the fields that you can use are limited to those supported by eM Client, we have some ways to get unique and make it work!

Sending Mass Mail for FREE with eM Client

1.Download the client

(Our friends at West Tennessee Consulting helped us vet this solution, we know this is safe!)

Windows+Mac

This works with almost any type of email account, for the demo we used a @gmail.com account.

2.Setup your account

We used a gmail account, it had us got our default browser and complete the login process, then started syncing our email!
