Using Custom Fields to manage contact blasts

[JeffB5687]

It would be great if we could use Custom Fields instead of Tags to filter our Master Contact List for regional email blast. I know that we can use the Custom Field to filter and then select all and apply the tag, but I'll have to do that every time we update our master list for all new entries. Seems like we could just use the data in the Custom Field instead of the tag which is just duplicating the meta data. Thanks for the consideration.

Thanks for posting this feedback!

To clarify, are you importing this custom field or are you having contacts sign up on their own? If you are importing you could import into the tag field but since this is only a field you would see you couldn't have people add themselves.
