BlastFax.com is a leader in the Multimedia Messaging Distribution
market improving your mass distribution to Customers, Prospects,
and Employees using Fax, Email and Audio Services,
as well as automation of your business transactions (Invoices,
Purchase Orders, Statements).
Blastfax.com enables you to deliver the same information to
hundreds or thousands of electronic addresses around the world
through Fax, Voice and Email using a variety of access methods.
Our objective is to reduce your time and money spent on distributing information
and marketing to your customers and prospects. We
do not provide fax or email addresses.
We've attempted to
make our site as user friendly as possible. The following information
should help to get you started:
UPLOADING A DOCUMENT
1. Click on the Document Manager link - this is where you upload
the documents you wish to broadcast.
2. Click Browse - this will open a browse window so that you
can locate the file containing the document you would like to
fax. (If you are using a merge document, please follow the directions
at the top of the Document Manager to download the Merge Document
Creation Utility). There is a link at the top of this page which
will explain the supported document file formats.
3. Click Start Upload.
4. Once your document has been uploaded, it will appear in the
list on the Document Manager page.
UPLOADING YOUR LIST
1. Click on the List Manager link.
2. Give a name to the list you wish to upload (e.g. My Client
List)
3. Click on the Browse button to select the file containing
your comma delimited list (a .CSV file which can be saved from
Microsoft Excel) or other alternative list format.
4. Click on Start Upload.
5. When your list file has been uploaded a new page will appear.
Adjust these options to match the format of your list. If you
uploaded a .CSV file, you can just use the default options.
Click Next.
6. You will now be on the List Mapping page. This is where you
have to match information in each column in your list with the
appropriate data column on our servers. For example, if column
1 in your list contains the recipients last name, select LastName
in the right-hand side pull down menu and so on. It is not necessary
to map ever column. If you aren’t using a Merge Document
for this broadcast, you need only map the FaxNumber field. If
you are using a Merge Document, you only need to map the columns
which are present in your document. Click Next.
7. Once your list upload successfully completes, you are ready
to schedule your fax broadcast, referred to in our system as
a batch.
CREATING A NEW BATCH
1. Click on New Batch
2. The first page is where you specify the document you will
send. Choose it and click Next.
3. The second page is where you specify the recipient lists
you are sending to. Check the desired lists and click Next.
4. The third page is where you set the start time, cut-off conditions,
page stamping information, as well as other miscellaneous options.
Note that you can schedule a batch up to 90 days in advance
and have it cut-off at a specific time, after a specific number
of successful faxes, and/or after the cost of the job reaches
a certain amount. Make sure the Page Stamping Options contain
the correct information for your broadcast as this will appear
in the header of every fax sent. You can preview what the fax
will look like by clicking View. Click Next when you are finished
on this page.
5. The 4th page contains the Quote for your job. Check over
this page and make sure everything is correct before Finishing
(note that the quoted price is a max estimate and your final
batch cost should not exceed this amount, although it may end
up being less). If you need to make any modifications to the
batch, clicking Previous will take you back to the prior steps.
You will also want to send yourself an instant Test Fax by clicking
on the Test Fax button at the top. When you are satisfied that
everything is correct and have accepted the Terms & Conditions,
click on Finish and your job will be marked Ready to be scheduled.
CHECKING YOUR JOB STATUS
1. Click on Batch Status
2. Find the batch which you are interested in on the list. Click
on this batch's ID.

about your batch. After the batch has completed, a link will

log of the results of your broadcast.
