How to Set up Direct Email (SMTP)
From client interactions to community referrals, emails play a huge role in many placement professionals' workflows. By default, when you send emails through Senior Place, the email address it comes from is communications@findassistedliving.org. While this works for some users, most prefer their emails to come from their actual email address (e.g. jodi@exampleseniorplacement.com).
SMTP is a user-specific setting and requires each user to connect their email to their account. Follow this step-by-step guide to link your inbox:
