1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Email Automation

To start sending thousands of emails at once, access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to integrate various applications seamlessly, including Google Sheets and Gmail. As an existing user, sign in to your Pabbly Connect account. If you are new, click on the ‘Sign Up for Free’ button to create an account and enjoy 100 free tasks each month.

Once logged in, navigate to the all applications page and click on Pabbly Connect to access your dashboard.

Name your workflow appropriately, such as ‘Send Thousands of Emails with Gmail,’ and select a folder to save it.

2. Setting Up Trigger and Action in Pabbly Connect

In Pabbly Connect, the concepts of trigger and action are crucial. The trigger is what initiates the workflow, while actions are the responses to that trigger. In this case, the trigger will be scheduled by Pabbly to run every Saturday. This means you will set your workflow to send emails automatically at a designated time.

• Select ‘Schedule by Pabbly’ as your trigger application.
• Choose the trigger event to run on specific days of the week.
• Set the day to Saturday and the time to 10:25 AM.

After setting the trigger, proceed to the action step. Here, you will choose Google Sheets as your action application, selecting the action event as ‘Get Rows’. This allows Pabbly Connect to fetch customer data from your Google Sheets where you maintain your customer information.

3. Connecting Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect

To retrieve customer data, you must connect Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect. Click on connect to add a new connection, and sign in with your Google account. After granting access, you will see that the connection is successful. Now you can select the spreadsheet containing your customer data.

Choose the spreadsheet titled ‘Customer Data’ and select the sheet that contains your information. Specify the range of data you want to cover, for example, from A2 to B250. This range ensures that all necessary customer details are included in the email sending process.

• Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to confirm the connection.
• Switch to advanced response to format the data properly.
• Use the iterator function to convert the data into key-value pairs.

This step is essential to ensure that the data fetched from Google Sheets is structured correctly for the next action of sending emails.

4. Sending Emails via Gmail with Pabbly Connect

Once the data is structured, you can set up Gmail as the next action application in your workflow. This is done by selecting ‘Gmail’ and the action event as ‘Send Email’. Connecting Gmail to Pabbly Connect involves signing in to your Gmail account and allowing access, just like you did with Google Sheets.

After establishing the connection, you will map the email addresses from the previous step to ensure that emails are sent to the correct customers. Specify the sender’s name as ‘Sam Supermart’ and set the subject of the email to something relevant, like ‘Saturday BOGO Sale’.

Map the customer’s name in the email body to personalize the email. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to send a test email. Check your Gmail to confirm the email was sent successfully.

This process ensures that every Saturday, your customers receive personalized emails about the special sale, automating the email marketing process effectively.
