Contact Lists Basics

Contact lists can be found in the Communications section and can be accessed by all administrators with the Communications permissions. Lists help to ensure that administrators can efficiently send communication from a single place to different sets of your membership.

Suggested Lists

Our Suggested Lists are the backbone of efficient communication on Clubspot! These lists are pre-generated based on the most commonly used contacts by clubs. You’ll find lists such as All Members and All Primary Members, which include every active member who hasn’t expired.

<aside> 🚀 We intend to expand our suggested lists to include more suggested options in the future!

Member Groups

Member Groups provide you with a dynamic way to manage your contacts! These groups contain the contacts of all members tagged to them in the Membership > Member Groups section. Member groups can be created by administrators and can optionally be set to allow members to directly opt in. For detailed instructions on how to create and manage your member groups, check out our comprehensive guide to creating member groups.

Custom Lists

With Custom Lists, the power is truly in your hands! You can craft fully personalized lists that include both members and non-members. Here’s how it works:

• To add members, simply toggle the Members switch on and filter to your desired contacts.
• For non-members, click the Add Contact button and enter their information. Clubspot’s system will recognize any previously added emails to prevent duplicate entries, keeping your email lists clean and organized.

<aside> 🔗 When combining multiple filters, all operators are AND operators. This means that if you filter down to a category of Social Members and a status of Past Due, the list will only include members that are both Social Members AND currently Past Due.
