Using the various smart set options in BusinessMind you can export and save a list of contacts with addresses. You can then use this list to create and print address labels from Microsoft Word.

This article assumes you have your contact data downloaded and saved out of BusinessMind. If you need assistance on how to download this data out of BusinessMind check out the link at the end of this article.

Before we begin it is also important to note that depending on your version of Word these instructions may vary. You can always search the information for your exact version via google.com

  • Open Word and click the Mailings option

  • Click on the Start Mail Merge option

  • Select Labels

  • From the list select the label brand and product number that you are using.

  • Your document will now displays a table with an outline of the labels. If you don't see the outline, go to Table Layout and select View Gridlines.

  • At this point I recommend you save your document to avoid losing progress.

  • Next click on Select Recipients

  • Choose Use an Existing list

  • Locate the file you downloaded out of BusinessMind, select it and click OK

  • Use the Insert Merge Field option to format the fields in the first label so it looks the way you want the rest of your labels to look. The images below shows how we recommend this set up.
