Phone & Email

Individuals may request to not be emailed, or contacted by phone.  This information can be updated via the communication type.  From the wrench icon  a drop down menu will appear.

Options include the following for both Phone & Email solicitations.  They include:

·         Do Not Solicit by Phone/Email

·         Do Not Allow System Notifications

Do Not Solicit by Phone/Email

The Do Not Solicit flag on a communication of Phone or Email will remove the phone and/or email information when printing an external phone or email communication list.

Note:  Currently the AOA is not using Phone Lists at this time.  It is however important to gather this information should a constituent request not to be solicited via phone.  However, on reports and extracts from Personify, constituent phone data could be removed.

Note:  Once updated, the Do Not Solicit flag will appear next to the communication type.

Do Not Allow System Notifications

Personify allows notifications to be sent via Mobile (text) as well as via email.  These notifications are an important part of Personify and it is recommended that they are not turned off.  Some of the items that are dispersed via notifications include:

·         Payment Notification

·         Order Notification

·         Shipping Notification

·         Meeting Confirmation

These alerts allow for constituents be updated when certain actions are taken in Personify.  Please be aware when working with a constituent who has requested not to receive these notifications via text or via email, they may miss out on certain pieces of communications which can be important to orders and constituents.  Making sure the constituent is aware of how notifications will be impacted is important.

Note:  There is no indication when a phone or email record has been flagged to not receive Notifications.

Phone Specific Solicitation Rules

Personify allows phone numbers to be marked as Do Not Call.  This feature would allow a constituent to specify which phone number they do not wish to be contacted.  For example, a doctor may specify that he can be called on his mobile or work numbers; however, he should not be contacted on his home phone number.  We would still track this information; however update the phone number to be added to the Do Not Call Registry.

To update this information for a phone record, locate the wrench tool  located next to the phone number to be updated.  A drop down menu will appear and select, Add to Do-Not-Call Registry.

Once updated the record will indicate the phone number is on the Do Not Call Registry and will indicate in the header if marked as primary
