Can I Customize the Position of the Merge Status Column in My Spreadsheet?

When using Mergo for your email campaigns, the Merge Status column plays a crucial role in tracking the status of each email sent. A common question we receive is about the flexibility of this column's position within the spreadsheet.

Yes, you can customize the position of the Merge Status column in your spreadsheet. To do this, simply include a column titled "Merge status" in the header row of your spreadsheet. By creating this column yourself and placing it in your desired location, Mergo will recognize and utilize it without adding a duplicate column at the end of your sheet.

This customization allows you to place the Merge Status column as the first column in your spreadsheet, providing a clearer view of the status of each email sent, especially in spreadsheets with numerous columns.

Additionally, the Merge Status column can be used to segment your contact list. If you wish to skip sending emails to specific rows, simply add a 0 in the Merge Status column for those rows. This feature is especially useful for targeting specific segments of your contact list.
