You need to create GMail Group to send e-mails to multiple recipients within a very short time. Ever wonder for sending e-mails, if you could just type in one address and you would get five, ten or even more email addresses typed in seconds?? Many of you must already know this. But somehow if you don’t, no worries, I am here to talk about gmail group today. E-mail or electronic mail is an essential part of our daily needs now more than ever. Everything is happening online right now and you need e-mail everywhere.
What is GMail Group
By the name, you can imaging that gmail group is a group of emails. Not necessarily it has to be all gmail addresses. If you use a gmail (which probably you do) and want to send mail to many recipients, you can have a separate group for all the receivers you want to send the mail to. You can have gmail groups for your teachers, friends, neighbors or customers. Creating a gmail group can save a lot of your valuable time.
Why do you need Gmail Group
So, think of a scenario where you need to send a bunch of emails to a lots of recipients at the same time. Such as, sending new years wish or Christmas or thanksgiving wishes to your friends and families or even your colleagues or the customers of your business. Whenever there are lots of recipients you basically have two ways to insert the name of the recipients. Number 1: is to type the addresses manually or copy from your spreadsheet or Number 2: type in one name and all the names appear. 10 out of 10 people will surely pick option 2, right?
How to do it
Creating a GMail group is very easy. You need to access to google contacts first. For this reason, you need to go to Google Contacts or search google with it. Remember, you must be logged in before proceeding. So it will take you to a page like this:
Typically in this page, if you have your gmail address synced with your Android phone, you will see your contacts here. If you save any mail address on your gmail, it will show them here too. However, I am using a fresh email so nothing appears. If yours do, nothing to worry.
If you don’t see your desired email address click on frequently contacted addresses or just start adding them one by one. For this demonstration, I am adding five non-existent email addresses and showing real people’s email might not be appropriate.
Creating Labels
Labels will actually create the what I am referring to as group. You need to select multiple email addresses for your group and click on labels on top. Give it a name and you will see it’s labeled as what name you have given it to. I have labeled as ”ALL MEMBERS”. It is not necessary to put all caps but I prefer to do so. Now go back to your gmail and start typing all members and select to see the magic
You just select your label and you will all your addresses at once. That’s how to create groups in gmail. I hope the procedure was easy. If you didn’t know about it before, hopefully you do now. So, that was today’s post. You can see the video on iSudip YouTube channel for full demonstration and I will see you guys next time, peace.
