\"send-later\"Recently, a company owner that uses our hosted\u00a0Zimbra<\/a> service asked me about tools her teams could use to improve sales and manage customer relationships\u00a0more efficiently. After a few minutes of talking we realized that what she really needed was a way to follow up on sales and service messaging that would be quick, simple\u00a0to use, and would help drive\u00a0revenue.<\/p>\n

Easy. Zimbra’s webmail client already provides an effective solution to this business concern with a feature\u00a0called Send Later<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Just as you would expect, the Send Later<\/strong>\u00a0email feature allows you to select the date and time for sending a message sometime in the future. It works for individual emails, group emails, and emails to distribution lists<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This was an fantastic\u00a0win for our client. Her staff is already comfortable working in the Zimbra webmail interface so there would be very little training required and no increase in her costs.<\/p>\n

When to use it<\/strong><\/em>
\nI’ll outline just a few\u00a0of the common use cases for Send Later<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
