How can I organize my contacts into different categories? For example I want separate lists for clients who are butchers, one for clients who are bakers, one for clients who are grocers etc. to keep better track of everything.
There are several ways to do it, it depends in what ways you will use the separated lists.
Some alternatives:
-
just add a custom field to describe “contact type”
-
Make Contacts part of different Target Lists (useful for Campaigns)
-
Make Contacts part of different Accounts (Butchers, Bakers), if you not using the Accounts concept for something else.
You make the final decision by examining how these different ways allow you to show data on dashlets, list it in Reports, search for it views, etc.
