info

This SOP will outline:

Nuances of Email/SMS templates
How to create templates
If you’re using a template, make sure the email/SMS has formatted correctly with the template tags being used.
For example - If you’re using an email/SMS template that is taking information from one of the Lead Custom Fields within Close, make sure that specific field has some data inside!! Otherwise, your email/SMS will be blank where that template tag was placed (watch video below for context)

Method

Navigate to the Settings.
Click the Templates page under the Communication section.
Click the + New Template button on the top right of the page to create a new template. ​
