From your Meetup Pro dashboard, you can send messages to every member in your network who has subscribed to receive emails, or certain subsets of those members.
Messages sent from the Pro dashboard can be synced with MailChimp. If you’d like other members of your leadership team to send these messages, you can grant them access to the Pro dashboard. Group organizers and co-organizers without dashboard access can contact members on a group level.
To get started, check out this video walkthrough for using your Pro communication tools.
To send messages from your Pro dashboard:
- Log into your Meetup Pro dashboard.
- In the left navigation bar, click Members.
- Select the members to message by checking boxes beside their names.
- At the top right of the panel, click New message.
To view your communication history, tap Sent Messages at the top right of the member pane.
Using filters to contact a subset of members
You can use filters on the dashboard to select a group of members you’d like to message.
The dashboard features four pre-selected Quick Filters:
- Active organizers
- Joined past 30 days
- Regular attendees
- Inactive members
You can also manually select and adjust these filters to find members in your network:
- Role (Member or Organizer)
- Groups
- Location
- RSVP count (Number of times member responded "Yes" to an event)
- Join date
- Last visit (Last time member visited one of your group or event pages)
Click the column headings to sort your Members list by the above filters. The "Email settings" column will show which of your members has subscribed to receive messages from your Pro network.
Contacting members who are not subscribed
Members are required to share their email address in order to attend events within your network. You can export a list of member information (including members' email addresses) by selecting Export in the top right corner of the Members page.
Contact members who have not subscribed and request that they update their email settings.
