How to Create Email Templates in Gmail
Hey everyone in today's Gmail video, I wanted to show you how to create email templates or can responses inside of your Gmail account and he said really simple process, but you do have to turn it on first is not there by default. So go ahead and log into the Gmail account where you want to create this and I'll show you a couple of useful options. Why you would use something like this in a second, but go to this gear icon. It doesn't matter which tab you're on. This should be your settings right here click it and go to settings right here. That's the option you want to go to and inside of settings used to be under labs, but now is inside advanced go to this tab called advanced and there's a bunch of advanced options here.
But the one we're looking for is called templates. Look for that one and you need to turn this on. If it's disabled, it won't show up where we need it to. So go ahead and click that. Now it's turned on, but we have to also press save or nothing happens. So save changes. So now that it refreshes the page for us, let's go ahead and compose an email and I'll show you where that setting will show up.
So here, I'm going to go ahead and draft the email that I want to either save as a cam response or save as a template. Maybe I want to send this to many people in this case. I do want to send this to multiple people. So it's going to be more called a template than a canned response, but. It's the same exact process.
So type out the email that you want to send to multiple different people, and then we'll save it as a template. So I just fast-forwarded that, and this is basically what I wrote out. I'm just trying to see if people will do shout-outs for me and promotions on their page, on their Instagram. So he could help me sell my product and grow my Instagram.
So I typed this out. Now I'm going to select this whole thing and if you press the three dots on the bottom of the page, there's this new option called templates. Now, this won't be available. If you don't turn it on in the settings. Now I'm going to save the draft as a template and save it as a new template, and I'm going to call it the subject line and Instagram press save.
So now let me just excited here to show you if I was to compose another email. Yeah, nothing is here. I would just have to go to the three dots, go to templates, and now I have that template. So if I insert that template, everything, including the subject line will appear my signature and everything else I added to that template will show up like this and if this was a canned response, meaning if we just responded to someone else, I'll just press reply here and here again, the three lines templates. They can respond here. This could be a response, obviously, that was a drafted message to send out and not to reply, but the reply could have been thanking you so much for subscribing to my YouTube channel.
See you soon and I could have used that as a canned response, but I hope you found this quick template video useful. Please give it a thumbs up. I post these types of videos every single day on this channel and I'll catch you next time. Thanks so much for watching.
