Available on premium and enterprise Hub subscriptions, sender profiles allow you to customize the sender email address and name automated emails are sent from. Users appreciate getting emails from those they're familiar with, so setting a sender profile is a great way to help build trust with your panel.

You can also keep your tone and voice consistent with personalized messaging in an email template set, and update the look and feel of your emails by creating an email theme. Both premium email features are included as part of paid Hub subscriptions!

For team admins

Setting a default sender profile for your team

Team admins have the ability to set a default sender profile for their research team. 

To set this default behavior:

1. Navigate to the "My Team" section and choose "Domain Settings".

2. Admins can select the default "from" address for project communication. These emails can come from either "research@usertinterviews.com" or from a sender profile that matches a researcher on your project.

FAQs

As an admin, can I update the default sender behavior?

Absolutely! This setting can be changed on a project, in the builder, or in the team settings at any time.

What happens if the project owner does not have a sender profile, but the default behavior is set to "default to project owner's sender profile"?

If the project owner has not created a sender profile with their account email, we will pre-populate the sender profile with a collaborator on the project. If there are no coordinating sender profiles between the project owner and collaborators, no profile will pre-populate in the builder. A profile will need to be created or selected by the project owner before launching the project.
