Export by Group

The ability to export the contacts within a group.

Reasons:  1)  Everyone loads by batches.  There are several steps in making the data ready to load & several steps allow for records to drop, so it would be good to do a quick compare of the original records to this new BB group.  2)  Once loaded to BB, we want to see if any records fell out on that 1st send (emailing).  If so, go back and mark the original source.  3)  If you can export a group then you can see if you forgot to assign a person already in BB to the group you’ve just loaded.

 

Related:  I’ve always wanted to see in the export what groups they are a member of.

    Hi Lucinda!

    Currently you can export your Lists from BombBomb as a CSV file. Is this what you are referring to?

    Once you upload a new list to BombBomb, you can export that updated list as a CSV file, and then compare the two files to see if anyone was missing.

    Feel free to email us at support@bombbomb.com and we would be happy to discuss your needs further.

    Thanks!

    Partially.  Here's a 2nd scenario where an export by group would be extremely helpful.  When I load a batch I need to check to see if I got them assigned to all the groups.  For example, I had intended to have a group, let's call it "Local" so I can extend face-to-face offers to (training, presentations,...)  Then classify others across the nation so I could offer webinars in the N. America hrs.  Finally classify all that are not local, nor in US/Canada in a 3rd group "Global" for a different type of messaging.  Now with 1000's of records loaded over the yrs, how do I ck that each record is in 1 & only 1 group? You've already identified the records for showing on a screen so why is it so hard to give us some export options, either export by group or add groups to the big master export.   

    Thanks!   I know you added this request to your future features wish list yrs ago when I first brought it up.  I just want to put it out there to see how others deal with these quality check issues.  I'm sure others want to send messages differently if local vs global and want to double ck their groups to get their messages sent correctly.

    Hi Lucinda!

    That definitely makes sense, and we continue to add your requests to a database we have of items that we would like like to add and change on the Contacts tab.

    I hope that we will be able to make some changes in the near future!

    Thanks!
