Send quotes and communications from your Gmail account to maintain your email history in one place.

Why use Gmail for sending

Sending from your Gmail account:
  • Maintains conversation history in Gmail
  • Uses your existing email signature and branding
  • Creates more personal connections with leads
  • Supports multiple Gmail accounts per team

Connect Gmail

1

Go to integrations

Navigate to Settings > Integrations
2

Add Google account

Find the Google section and click ”+ Add account”
3

Sign in and grant permissions

Sign in to your Google account and grant permissions

Send quotes from Gmail

From quote view:
  1. Open any quote
  2. Click “Send Quote”
  3. Select your Gmail account from the dropdown
  4. Review and send
Set default sender:
  • Go to Settings > General > Locations
  • For each location, select default sending email
  • New quotes will use this sender by default

Manage sending accounts

View connected accounts:
  • Go to Settings > Integrations
  • All connected Google accounts appear in the Google section
Disconnect an account:
  1. Find the account in Settings > Integrations
  2. Click “Disconnect”
  3. Confirm removal
Disconnecting an account removes the ability to send from that email. Existing sent emails remain in your Gmail.

Best practices

  1. Set defaults per location - Configure each location with the appropriate sending email
  2. Use professional signatures - Your Gmail signature appears in all sent quotes
  3. Monitor your sent folder - All Flashquotes emails appear in your Gmail Sent folder
  4. Connect your primary business email - Use your main business email for most communications
