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

​

​
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:
