Broadcast Emails and Messages to Multiple Contacts

Pronnel’s Bulk Broadcast feature—available on the Contact Board—lets you send personalized emails and messages to multiple contacts in just a few clicks. Whether it's for follow-ups, reminders, or campaigns, this tool allows you to engage your audience efficiently without compromising on personalization.

Getting Started with Bulk Broadcast

Before broadcasting, make sure your communication channels (Email, WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.) are connected and active. You can manage them under the Channels section in Settings.

If you're sending emails, ensure the Email integration is enabled. For WhatsApp, you must have pre-approved message templates as per WhatsApp Business requirements.

How to Send a Bulk Broadcast

  • Go to the Contact Board.
  • Select the checkboxes next to contacts you want to message.
  • Once selected, click the Broadcast icon on the bottom toolbar.
  • Choose a channel: Email, WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.

Composing the Message

A popup window will appear where you can either compose a new message or select from saved canned templates. Use the advanced editor to craft formatted content or include attachments if needed.

Pronnel supports dynamic variables (like name, company, etc.) to personalize each message. These variables automatically pull contact-specific values.

Broadcasting Pre-Approved WhatsApp Messages

When you select WhatsApp as the broadcast channel, a message editor appears where you can either write your own text or use options like column chips for personalization, attachments, and pre-approved messages. Clicking on the pre-approved message option opens a popup where you can select from your approved templates. After choosing a template, map its dynamic variables using column values such as Name, Company, or Service—ensuring each message is tailored to the recipient.

Templates typically include placeholders like {{1}}, {{2}}, etc. These can be linked to dynamic data fields such as Name, Date, Amount, or Service, delivering a personalized message to every contact.

Once mapping is complete, review your message and click Send. All selected contacts will instantly receive a customized WhatsApp message—sent in just a few clicks.
