With the AdviserLogic Email system, you can:
Create dynamic, personalised emails
Apply filters or use saved groups
Automatically log emails as File Notes
Insert client-specific data with ease
Save time with custom built-in templates and automation tools
Access
To access the email system, select the Emails button from the left-hand menu panel in AdviserLogic.
🔐 Note
We’ve enhanced email security—email addresses are now managed via the Reply To functionality.
🖊️ Setting Up an Email Profile and Signature
To send emails from AdviserLogic, you’ll first need to set up an Email Profile. This profile determines the "Reply To" email address and includes your email signature, ensuring that all client-facing communication is consistent, professional, and correctly attributed to the sender.
Your Email Profile is used each time you send an email from within AdviserLogic and can be customised to reflect your personal or business branding—much like traditional email platforms such as Outlook or Gmail.
Select Reply To to manage your email profiles.
In the Profile dropdown, choose Add New Profile.
Enter your Display Name and Email Address.
Select Verify—a confirmation link will be sent to the email address.
Add your Email Signature by typing or pasting it into the editor. You can also insert your logo.
Once complete, save your profile. Your signature will automatically populate when the profile is used in an email.
📌Note
You can create and save multiple profiles to suit different roles, practices, or communication styles—such as one for general enquiries, another for formal advice, or different profiles for multiple advisers within the same business. This allows for flexibility and personalisation across your client communications.
Once saved, each profile can be selected as needed or set as a default, streamlining the process and ensuring consistency every time you send an email.
⚠️ Your signature will only appear in the email body if you’ve selected your profile from the Reply To field in the email editor.
👉 For in-depth Email Profile & Signature Instructions
To assign your saved email profile, select it from the Reply To drop-down from the main email window.
👥 Selecting Clients to Email
👤 Individual Clients
To add individual clients to the email, simply start typing their name into the To field and select the correct client from the dropdown list that appears.
👥 Multiple Clients
To choose recipients, select the To button.
The Send To window allows you to assign clients to an email by selecting them manually, applying filters, or choosing from pre-saved groups. This ensures that your email is directed to the correct recipients with minimal effort.

⏳ Filter Clients
To Filter Clients, use the available filter options located below the search fields.
You can choose from three filter types to refine your client list:
Filter by non-financial client details such as Category, Adviser, Date of Birth, Dependants, or Gender. | |
Filter clients based on financial parameters like Net Worth, Income, or Assets. | |
📝 Custom Filters | Pull data directly from your Custom Fact Find fields, allowing tailored filtering based on your practice-specific requirements.
*Custom Filters are only available if you have created Custom Fact Find Fields |
These filters can be applied individually or combined to create precisely targeted groups.
To apply a filter, simply select an option from each drop-down menu. As you make a selection, additional dependent fields will appear, allowing you to further narrow down your client list. Continue refining your criteria until no further filter options are available—ensuring you create a fully customised group based on your specific needs.
When you select a Filter Type, the system will display relevant options in the next filter field. This allows you to progressively refine your search based on the selected category or client attribute.
