Import Event Contacts

If you are shooting an event and collect a list of emails of potential clients, you can import this information to your Photostockplus account and assign them to that specific event after creating an event album for the shoot. The next time you export event contacts, they will be included in the spreadsheet.

This function is also a great tool to use as a back up of an existing email list you may have. In the event that you loose your list on your PC or MAC, you can export your event contacts at any time through your Photostockplus account and retrieve your complete list along with any addition names and emails collected through any of your online galleries.
