What are Groups?
Groups are ways to categorize contacts. Contacts can be part of multiple groups. Group data can be filtered and actioned upon in various modules across TieiT. For example, you can create an automation to contacts within a particular Group (e.g. Hot Prospects) who have shown interest in an email campaign you sent (e.g. clicked on a link) to send them a more targeted email or SMS. You can use Groups in Email Campaigns to send contacts belonging to particular group(s) (e.g. Loyal Customers) a personalized email. Segment and filter data based on groups in your Contact listing so you can see the data that is insightful to the decision you need to make.
