Recommendation
Send a templated email to the taxpayer around the same time you send them their tax organizer. Standardizing this delivery email template ensures that no matter the sender or recipient, partners, and professional staff can be assured that consistent, accurate, and instructional information reaches all recipients.
Template creation steps (MS Outlook users)
- Open a new Outlook email and remove theSignatureblock, if one prepopulates.
- Tailor the text and content the firm would like to provide (check the following sample), then copy and paste that information into the blank email.
- Leaving out salutations and identifying information keeps this process the most efficient for delivery purposes.
- Add a clearSubjectline, such as "Review and Complete your tax organizer".
- SelectSave Asand change theFile TypetoOutlook Template. Place this file in a centralized location accessible to all processors, such as aSafeSend Templatesfolder.
- TheOutlook Templatefile type prevents accidental replacing of information saved in the copy everyone accesses.
- Any future changes are easy to make with a single template to maintain.
