Connect Google Inbox

Connect Gmail or Google Workspace to SimplySub so user-sent emails go from your own email account.

Email

SimplySub lets subcontractors connect a Gmail or Google Workspace account so outbound emails can come directly from their own email address. This helps keep communication familiar, consistent, and easier for customers or vendors to recognize.

What this Feature Spotlight covers

The video walks through the basic setup process from the user profile screen.

  • Confirm the email address listed in your SimplySub profile
  • Connect the correct Google account using the Connect Google button
  • Allow SimplySub to send email on your behalf
  • Send user-initiated emails such as invoices, estimates, purchase orders, and notes through your Gmail or Google Workspace account
  • Disconnect and reconnect the account from the same profile screen when needed

Why it matters

Email is a big part of everyday subcontractor communication. When invoices, estimates, purchase orders, and job notes come from your own email account, recipients are more likely to recognize the sender and understand where the message is coming from.

This creates a cleaner experience for both your office team and the people receiving your emails.

Built to stay simple

The connection process is handled from the profile page. After choosing the Google account and granting access, the account stays connected until it is manually disconnected. There is no daily reconnect process or extra setup required for normal use.

For subcontractors who already rely on Gmail or Google Workspace, this keeps SimplySub email workflows simple while allowing communication to stay tied to the company’s own inbox.
