How do I create a Distribution list within BCM JackieT 01.06.2006 20:20:02 I have all my contacts in BCM. I have given each a category and each belong to an account. I want to create a distribution list where everyone else within my business can access this list and send a mass email to this list. I know you can do this in Outlook but for some strange reason this cannot be done in BCM. If I attempt to create a distribution list - it creates a contact with no email addresses listed. I'm in desperate need. Any help would be appreciated. Jackie

Re: How do I create a Distribution list within BCM JackieT 02.06.2006 13:55:02 Thanks Raul for your reply. After creating an account and associating contacts with that account is there anyway that you can send an email to everyone belonging to an account? so you're able to send a mass email? thanks again.

Re: How do I create a Distribution list within BCM "Luther" <enowning[ at ]gmail.com> 03.06.2006 15:11:40 This is what the ListBuilder feature in BCM is for. You decide who in your company can have access to it and it take care of managing the mass email, manages unsubscription requests, produces reports on how effective emails were, and so on. It also appears to be improved in the v3 Beta. ListBuilder is now a feature of the new Marketing Campaign entity. In v1 and v2 exchanging data with ListBuilder was in a sense a type of import and export. The Marketing Campaigns add a bunch of new features, but I haven't tried the new List Builder yet. It appears that some of the features that required logging on to the ListBuilder web site are now accessible in Marketing Campaigns. JackieT wrote: [Quoted Text] > I have all my contacts in BCM.
