Smart lists are a combination of automated notifications, AI suggestions, and grouped mailing lists. A smart list is the best management tool for artists looking to streamline their outreach.
A Smart List is a unique grouping of contacts that is generated by the Virtual Publicist AI. As a User, you can also create your own Smart Lists if you want to be notified of any actions done by the group of contacts in that list.
This is the best way to manage communications for your music campaigns because it simplifies organizing your targets and tracks your conversations.
Creating a Smart List:
On the left-hand side of the dashboard, you will find the “Create list” button.
Select, and start filling it with contacts to receive notifications when they answer back.
As your messaging campaign goes forward, you will receive regular updates on the status of your messages.
Messaging via your smart lists is the fastest way of getting your message out there. Instead of having 3 saves and 2 pages to go through like other SaaS products, Virtual Publicist offers a seamless user transition from one section to the next.
