Composing and Sending Emails
You can start a new email conversation with a client directly from Connie, without switching to another email program.
Starting a New Email
- Click "+ New task" or the compose button in the Task Manager area
- Select Email as the channel
- Fill in the recipient's email address
- Enter a subject line
- Write your message in the body field
- Attach any files if needed
- Click "Send"
The email task appears in your Task Queue so you can track it.
Composing Your Email
When writing emails:
- Be clear and specific in the subject line — the client should know what the email is about at a glance
- Keep the body concise — state the purpose, provide the information, and include any next steps
- Include your name and contact info so the client knows how to reach you
- Review before sending — check for typos and make sure attachments are included
Completing an Outbound Email Task
After sending:
- Select a Disposition that describes the purpose — for example, "Initial Outreach," "Follow-up," or "Information Sent"
- Add notes about what you sent and why
- Click "Complete"
tip
If you expect the client to reply, note that in your disposition or comments so the next agent who receives the response has context.
