Removing Members from a List by Using Advanced Find

Members added to a marketing list will remain on the list until you manually remove them. As when you add members to a list, you can remove members individually or use the Advanced Find feature to remove a group of members. Using an Advanced Find query allows you to quickly remove multiple members based on common selection criteria.

In this exercise, you will use an Advanced Find query to remove contacts that do not have a city populated from your Illinois Contacts marketing list.

Important

This action only removes records from the list. It does not delete the actual record. To undo this change, you will need to re-add the members to your list.
