Templates help you send personalized messages faster while keeping a consistent tone across your outreach.
1
Open the Templates tab in Inbox
- From the left-hand sidebar, go to Inbox.
- Click the Templates tab at the top of your Inbox.

2
Create a new email template
- Click New Email Template in the top-right corner.
- 
The template editor opens, where you can set:
- Template Title (for internal use)
- Subject line
- Email body content
  
Use clear, reusable titles so your team can easily identify templates (for example: Candidate Intro – Software Engineer).

Personalize using recipient placeholders
To make your messages feel personal, insert dynamic placeholders that automatically pull the recipient’s name from your database:Example:
- { Recipient > First Name }— Inserts the recipient’s first name
- { Recipient > Last Name }— Inserts the recipient’s last name
Placeholders only populate if the recipient’s details (first and last name) exist in Spott.
4
Auto-save and usage
Templates are automatically saved as you type — no need to click “Save.”
Once created, they become instantly available when composing new messages in the Inbox or when using bulk outreach features.
