Step 3: Test
- Go to the sales pipeline.
- Open a test opportunity and move it to the desired stage (where the template is set).
- Check the client's email: the system should send an automatic email.
Note
- If the client in the opportunity card does not have an email, the letter will not be sent.
- It's important that a working outgoing mail server is configured in the system settings.
- For different stages, you can set up different templates — for example, a welcome email at the beginning, reminders at the middle stages, and a thank you letter after successful closure.
