Creating Lists of Prospects Using Additional Attributes

You can create lists of prospects by querying the additional attribute data for all prospects. For example, you might create an additional attribute for hobby and then record these values for many of your prospects. For a campaign, you might want to create a list of prospects with certain hobbies, such as sailing or painting.

You can create a list of prospects by using the Prospects by Attribute list. In this list, the New Internal List and Add to List functions are also available. Simply query the list of all prospects using the appropriate attribute and attribute value. Then, highlight the desired records and either create a new list or add to an existing list.

Due to the many-to-many relationship between prospects and attributes, you cannot have multiple combinations of attributes and values in a single query. If you wish to create of a list that combines queries, for example Hobby = Skiing AND Preferred Language = Spanish, perform separate queries, and use the Add to List function to combine the results.
