TARGET Sales Management System - Application Notes
Prospect List Generator
The TARGET system is capable of compiling lists of prospects using different information that is
entered, so you can use the information to send bulk faxes and e-mails as well as creating a list
of prospects for mailing brochures or advertisements.
Prospect List (multi choice)
This choice is the most commonly used because you can create a prospect list using a wide variety of
choices.
- Choose #32 PROSPECT LISTS in the Back Office Main Menu
- Choose #11 PROSPECT LIST (multi list)
- First enter D for Domestic, C for Canadian or F for Foreign Prospects. Once you have made your
choice, the address fields will be generated accordingly.
- Next, you MUST fill in the Prospect Field. D = Dealers, E = End Users, * = both Dealers and
End Users. The default is E.
- Fill in the Sort? field. A = sort alphabetically or Z = sort by zip code.
- The Fax? field asks if you want prospects that have fax numbers. Y = have fax numbers, N =
don't have fax numbers or B = both. If you are generating the list for a bulk fax this comes
in handy because you don't want the search to return with prospects with no fax number. The
default is B.
- If you want to send information to prospects that have a certain selection code in your
system, then you should use the selection code field. If you want to eliminate prospects
within a certain selection code, then use the Not: field.
NOTE: ANY FIELD THAT IS LEFT BLANK WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED IN THE SEARCH. Other than the
fields mentioned above, you do not have to fill in all the fields, just the ones that pertain to
your search. The more fields you fill in, the narrower the search will be.

choice, the address fields will be generated accordingly.
