In today's blog, I'll show you how to easily create and send a personalized birthday card using one of our new animated eCards. You can also use these techniques to personalize other types of eCards for Season's Greetings, anniversaries and more.
The 'Autofill Name' feature uses the information from contacts in your address book. You can also add alternate text to be used for contacts that are not in your address book.
In the editor, select the tab:
This is what my final birthday eCard looks like with the animation. At the bottom the card, I added a signature with a logo and social media links to encourage interaction.

I hope you have a wonderful birthday with lots of sweet treats! I sent you a little something to help celebrate the day. It should arrive today by UPS. All the best,

To auto-insert a contact's name and company in your email's subject line & preheader, you can use the 'autofill name' option on the Send Email screen.
In the example below, I inserted the person's first name in the subject line and in the preheader.
First Name: |*First_Name*|
First & Last Name: |*First_and_Last_Name*|
Company Name: |*Company_Name*|
