Salesforce Mass Mailing!

Mass mailing, also known as bulk emailing, is a feature in Salesforce that allows you to send personalized emails to a large number of contacts or leads in a single operation. This feature is particularly useful for marketing campaigns, newsletters, and other types of email communications that require sending to a large audience.

Here are some key benefits and considerations for using Salesforce Mass Mailing:
