📖 2. Overview

Velocity360 provides powerful tools to ensure your communication remains professional and consistent. **Templates** allow you to save entire message structures for emails or SMS, while **Snippets** are short text blocks used for repetitive information like links or addresses.

📧 3. Email Templates

Email templates include subject lines and body content. They support dynamic placeholders (like {contact.first_name}) to personalize every message automatically.

  • Standardization: Keep your branding consistent across the team.
  • Speed: No more copy-pasting from old emails.
  • Formatting: Rich text support for links, images, and lists.

📱 4. SMS Templates

SMS templates are perfect for quick confirmations, appointment reminders, or following up on leads via text message.

Tip: Keep SMS templates concise to avoid splitting your messages into multiple parts, which can affect deliverability and costs.

✂️ 5. Using Snippets

Snippets are reusable "building blocks" of text. They are ideal for:

  • Meeting scheduler links.
  • Company physical addresses or directions.
  • Standardized legal disclaimers.
  • Answers to frequently asked questions (FAQs).
