Use criteria groups

Sometimes you'll need to create more complex criteria, such as "prospect replied to an email and belongs to a specific sequence." To do this, you can create a criteria group. Click the More Options button next to the Plus button to add a new group.

Within each group, you can add more criteria or create sub-groups for even more specificity.

For example, you could create a group for prospects who replied to an email and belong to a specific sequence, and then add a sub-group for prospects who belong to a specific company size range.

Here are some examples of criteria groups you could create:

The prospect is in Sequence A and is located in any of the specified cities.
The prospect's account is in any of the specified cities and has between 100 and 500 employees.
The prospect's account is in any of the specified cities and has between 100 and 500 employees, or has a high account value.
