Create and Manage Email Recipient Lists for Email Campaigns

When a user sends an email campaign in Command, they have the ability to create the list of recipients while creating the campaign, or they can create and manage these recipient lists separately and then easily utilize them when creating the email campaign. Email lists can be used to group together a broad audience of contacts like buyers and sellers or they can be used to group together a specific audience like first time home buyers.

Only contacts that have a Primary Email Address can be added to an email campaign recipient list. If the contact does not have a Primary Email Address added to their contact record, they will not appear in the list of contacts that can be added.

If a contact is missing this info, you can edit the contact and add the email address.
