Locking Fields

Maintain clean data and consistent practices in order for Fashion GPS to be most effective.

Employees that will use Launchmetrics constantly should determine these lists together. Once this is decided and provided to Launchmetrics, the fields can be locked down. This means every time an employee attempts to create a contact they must choose from these pre‐defined lists. They will not have the ability to create new types, categories etc.

This allows users to run effective searches and clean reporting.

Users will have the ability to run quick searches for Contacts and this will also assist with targeted mailings and list-building for contacts. For example, users can pull a search of all contact Category: PRESS if they’re building a group for an event or all contacts that are Type: EDITOR, BEAUTY, BLOGGER for a press release mailing.

We recommend coming up with a pre-defined list of the following fields:

Contacts

  • Category
  • Type
