Blacklist (Full Overview)

Also known as expanded filter.

Putting a contact into a blacklist campaign ensures they will never receive a message from a Sales Connector campaign. This feature is often used in conjunction with an external database of prospects and/or current clients in effort to avoid overlapping outreach efforts.

Benefits & Value

Occasionally, users may prefer not to send messages to specific contacts, be it an existing customer, a competing organization, or to prevent duplication with another Sales Connector account. Whatever the motive, the blacklist feature offers a protective measure.

Feature Attributes

A user's dashboard showcases two blacklist campaigns: One is specifically for 2nd & 3rd degree connections and is found under Connector Campaigns. The other is specifically for 1st degree connections and is located under Messenger Campaigns.
