CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I'm marketing an event by sending mailings through CiviMail. Looking at the mailing report I can see which contacts have clicked the link in the mailings for the detailed event information and registration pages.

I wanted to cross reference these click-throughs against the registered participant list for the event, so that I could see who had expressed sufficient interest in the event to click a link, but had not gone on to register. This would enable me to send a targeted email to these contacts to encourage them to register.

I couldn't see any way to find these contacts through CiviCRM, so I ended up copying the list of contacts that had clicked the link, and pasting this into a text editor, then manually cross checking this against my participant list, and contact-by-contact adding the non-registered contacts to a new group that i created, enabling me to then send the mail.

Pretty slow and clunky. If anyone can think of a way to do this more effectively, please let me know.

And as a feature request, if the list of contacts shown when clicking on the click-throughs from the mailing report had included the checkboxes and action options shown on a search results page, I could have quickly added all my click-through contacts to a group, then run a search for contacts who were in that group but who were not registered for the event, and then added those to a group.

Thanks

Excellent. Great minds think alike - or is it that fools seldom differ? Whatever, this, sounds exactly like what I need. Thanks Dave.
