Custom variables

You can make calendar invites and email reminders more personalised by using custom variables.

Distro provides advanced options for customizing your reminders and calendar invites, helping you stand out.

Here's a list of these variables and what they represent.

Change your calendar invites from "{{firstName}}" to: "Good morning Jane" or "Happy Friday, Don."

If the variable does not exist it will be displayed as raw variable in the text content. e.g. {{prospect.location}} will be displayed as {{prospect.location}} because it does not exist.

Format

All variables must be surrounded by double curly brackets: {{prospect.lastname}}
