An example of Contact Types and/or Registration Types I use are Participant, Staff, Presenter, Exhibitor, Board of Directors Member. I then associate registration paths to them if we are asking for different information from each type. I meant to give you this example earlier.

Subject: Contact Group vs Contact Type
HI Berkeley, I create a Contact Group for everyone that is on one of our committees, for example. This allows me to send emails to everyone in that contact group. Contact Types are attached to individuals in the address book which is different than Registration Types that can be created in an event and used to send people down specific registration paths (you can also set it up so that a registration type is updated as a contact type in the address book though). I hope this helps.

Hi! I am interested in learning more about the difference between contact groups and contact types. Can anyone explain the difference / when you would use each most?
Thank you!
