# How to Send Mass Emails to Your Contacts

## Cerely’s bulk email functionality makes it easy to communicate with a targeted list of contacts directly from the contacts tab. By applying specific filters, you can ensure your message reaches exactly the right audience, filtering by location, role, service type, or division.

#### **Before You Start Email Integration is Required**

Before sending emails from Cerely, you must first integrate your email account. Cerely supports both **Google Gmail** and **Microsoft Office 365** integrations.

Refer to the following guides to set up your email integration:

- How to Integrate Google Gmail -**[https://21773606.hs-sites-ap1.com/how-to-integrate-your-google-email-account](https://help.cerely.com/how-to-integrate-your-google-email-account?hsLang=en-au)**
- How to Integrate Microsoft Office 365 -**[https://21773606.hs-sites-ap1.com/how-to-integrate-your-microsoft-office-365-email-account](https://help.cerely.com/how-to-integrate-your-microsoft-office-365-email-account?hsLang=en-au)**

Once your email is connected, you will be able to send emails directly from within the Cerely platform.

#### 1.  From the main menu on the Cerely dashboard, click on the **Contacts** tab

#### 2. Use the **filters** at the top of the **Contact** screen to select your target audience for the email communication. You can filter recipients based on:

**Contact Type**  
Filter contacts by the type of record:

- **Clients** – Head office or business entities that own or manage groups of sites
- **Sites** – Individual service locations
- **Providers** – Subcontracting companies

**Service Type**  
Filter contacts associated with specific service types, such as:

- Cash in Transit
- Crowd Control
- Mobile Patrol

**Position Level**  
Filter contacts based on their job role or position, for example:

- Account Manager
- Venue Manager
- Operations Manager

**Associated Sites**  
Limit the contact list to individuals linked to specific sites.

**State**  
Filter contacts or sites based on the selected state or territory.

**Division**  
Filter contacts by internal divisions (e.g. Brisbane, Toowoomba, Gold Coast).

**Status**  
Filter by site status:

- **Active** – Sites currently in operation
- **Inactive** – Sites that are archived or no longer active
