This tutorial by Julie Keber is another in a series of practical step-by-step guides, designed to help you with your own household or business projects using Microsoft’s Office products. The guides are simple to follow, even for complete beginners.
In this tutorial Julie teaches you to create your own mail merge using Microsoft Word’s Mail Merge wizard. She takes you through:
-
the do’s and don’ts of sending business mail
-
how to use the mail merge wizard
-
creating a mailing list for the merge
-
how to edit your list
-
checking your merge
-
how to complete and print your merge
-
creating a merge using a template, an existing document or list

Julie uses a basic example that you can follow right along with - then once you have mastered the skill you can use your own letter and database.
A mail merge will help you to send personalized communications to a great number of customers, prospective customers, colleagues, friends or family. It will make the recipient feel as if you are talking directly to them, which in turn gives you a higher chance of a better response rate. This tutorial goes well with Julie's How to create your own Mailing List in Microsoft Excel.
