The messages are grouped on one page and are collectively called Templates, you can find them in the templates tab.
The Templates can be created either on this page (by pressing the "Create New" button on the right side of the screen) or in Campaigns when you create new ones or manage the existing ones.
You can also attach existing Templates to more than one Campaign by selecting them when the campaign is being created.
Upon clicking on the templates tab, the template screen will show. To create the template follow the steps below
Select the message type, which can be connection message, follow-up, and Open InMails.
Add a template name (this is required to continue creating the template)
Start typing your message
You will see that there are some tabs on the top side of the box. Selecting First Name will grab the first name of the Linkedin profile so every time the message goes out to a different contact, it will show the name on their Linkedin profile, and this same logic applies to the other options (Last Name, Company, Location, Title)
Custom 1 and Custom 2 fields are for CSV imports only. To learn more about CSV imports click here.
When using one of those options, you will get to choose the fallback text. This is a text that will show in case the information selected is not found. Example: you select first name, and you select "Sir/Ma'am" as a fallback text. Instead of the first name, it will show "Hi Sir/Ma'am"
You can also see how the message would look on the other side by clicking the Test Drive Your Message button. Once you click it, you will see a window that will show you how the message will be shown to the contact.
Click CREATE
Besides creating your own templates, you can use the AI template generator. You can find it in the templates tab, click the AI Generator option.
