Sending emails via ExpoFP

Sending emails via ExpoFP will notify your exhibitors about their reservations and pending payments and give them access to their Exhibitor Portals.

Setting up email templates

Go to Settings > Email Templates from your Dashboard.

We provide templates for reservation confirmation, invoices, payment confirmation and auto-login emails.

With all emails, you can:

• Change the subject and the body of the email.
• Use multiple variables: #ContactName#, #CompanyName#, #AutoLoginLink#, #Balance#, #Booth#, #BoothType#, #BoothSize#, #BoothCost#.
• Attach custom PDFs, for example, payment instructions or contracts.
• Include your email in the CC/BCC field to receive copies of all emails.

Reservation confirmation email

This email is configured to be sent by default after the reservation. However, it’s possible to change it in Settings > Reservation. The email includes the auto-login link for exhibitors to edit their profiles by default.

Invoice email

You can set the invoice email to be sent by default after the reservation through Settings > Reservation. But you can also send invoices individually through the Exhibitors page. The invoice email includes a ‘Pay Now’ button by default, which you can remove if you don't collect payments online.

Invoice payment confirmation email

After an invoice is paid, go to Exhibitors and select the ‘Send paid’ option to email the invoice payment confirmation. This email includes a PDF of the invoice with a ‘PAID’ stamp on it.

Auto-login to edit Exhibitor profile email

The auto-login link to the Exhibitor Portal is included by default in the Reservation confirmation email. If you want to send it individually instead (for example, when approving the reservations first), you can go to the Exhibitors page and click the ‘Email auto-login link’ option. More details on the Exhibitor Portal are here.

Mass mailing

Using our mass mailing feature, you can reach all your exhibitors at once.

First, set up a custom mail server. Then go to your Exhibitors page. Choose which exhibitors you want to mail by clicking the checkboxes next to their names or the checkbox at the top to select all. You can use filters to sort companies by category, tag, extras etc. Next, click "Email".

Edit the subject and the message of the email. You can use different variables to include auto-login links, as well as information about the booths and remaining balance. Hit send.

Mailing Log

With mass mailing, you can check the status of emails sent on Exhibitors details > Mailing log. The status will be green if the email was sent; in case the exhibitor doesn’t have an email in their profile, the status will be "skipped."
