How to use it well

Template questions
How do I use this template?
Download the .docx, open it in Word, and replace the [bracketed] placeholders: your letterhead, dates, and any wording you want to change. The «field» codes stay: they fill in automatically when you merge. Then upload it to MergeNinja (or use Word's own mail merge) against your Excel / CSV upload data.
What are the «fields» in the letter?
Real Word merge fields. For Excel data, the field names are suggestions: either rename your spreadsheet columns to match, or edit the merge fields in Word to match your columns. Column mapping in MergeNinja handles the rest.
Can I change the wording and formatting?
Completely. It's an ordinary Word document. Fonts, logo, layout, and tone are yours to edit; the merge only fills the field codes wherever you leave them.
Is the download really free?
Yes. No email required, no watermark. If you later want the letters filled in automatically for your whole customer list, that's what MergeNinja is for.
