With Eventdrive, you can target your campaigns very precisely by combining several filters. To narrow the audience down to a precise subset, such as the confirmed attendees of a VIP group, it's important to choose the right operator: WITH, which widens an audience, and WITHOUT, which narrows it.
How the WITH and WITHOUT filters work
WITH adds people to your selection: it adds populations together rather than crossing them. For example, "Group VIP" WITH "Status Confirmed" targets every attendee in the VIP group, plus every confirmed attendee, including those who are not part of the VIP group. WITHOUT works the other way around: it removes people from your selection.
How to target your VIP and confirmed attendees
To target only the confirmed attendees within a group, start from that group as your base audience, then use WITHOUT to remove the statuses you don't want to include:
- Choose "Groups" as the base recipients, then select "VIP".
- Add a WITHOUT filter for each of the other registration statuses (Invite Not Sent, Awaiting Answer, Pre-registered, Declined).
You'll be precisely targeting the VIP group attendees who are in Confirmed status.
