Gmail Users: Don’t Miss Your Everyone Home DC Emails
It’s hard to believe that Gmail introduced its tabs system seven years ago. While it has been helpful in the organization of your inbox, it can sometimes mean you miss important messages from your favorite senders…like Everyone Home DC! There are a few simple things you can do to ensure your Everyone Home DC emails make it into the tab of your preference, increasing your chances of viewing. Below are a few tips to support the functionality of your inbox, as well as ways you can help the success of Everyone Home DC’s email campaigns.
First. Do you want to receive emails from Everyone Home DC? If you search your inbox using the keywords “Everyone Home DC” and find that you aren’t receiving emails, sign up to receive emails from Everyone Home DC on our website. If you have any issues or questions, email Director of Strategic Initiatives, Kate, at akalonu@everyonehomedc.org.
Second. Once you are sure you have signed up for emails, add akalonu@everyonehomedc.org and cunningham@everyonehomedc.org to your Gmail whitelist. Click here to read more. This will help get the emails into your primary tab, although you might have to do an additional step.
Third. If you find your Everyone Home DC emails are going into a tab you don’t check as often (promotions, social, updates) you can drag the email out of the tab and drop it in the primary tab (or tab of your choice.)
