Our development department is currently not using source groups for source numbers. We use the “default source group” for all source numbers.
We would like to start using source groups. Is anyone else using source groups? Would anyone share examples of the source number groups that you are using? Also, share a brief example or description why the source number groups are helpful.
Thanks!
Some of the ones we use are
Auto Billing (this is the default when using any scheduled billing)Board Contact (For solicitations that the board are doing)Board of Turstees (For our solicitations to our board)DonorDonor/Subscriber (people that are segmented because the are current in both)SubscriberSingle Ticket BuyerUnsolicited/UnknownInternal Pull (Random internal lists that don't fit any other group)Outside Pull/List Trade (Outside sources for producer lists that they are mailing out)Web Sales
