Is it possible to schedule emails in Zoho CRM?
Sending and following up on emails is an important part of all our jobs. However, each of us prefers to do it at a different time of the day. While some people check and respond to emails as soon as they get to work, some keep it for after lunch, and some even do it while they commute to work. There's never a single best time to get attention for all your emails. It's also impossible to wait and send each email based on the best time to get it noticed.
Email scheduling comes in handy here. Simply specify when you want your emails to be sent, and the system will take care of sending them at the right time.
Moreover, the best part with email scheduling is that you can choose from one of the following options:
- Best time to email - as suggested by CRM.
- Pre-defined options for scheduling (Today, Tomorrow).
- Custom scheduling.
