Are you wanting to send an alert if a lead takes action in email? Like click link or visits web page..something that would be sent to your sales team to alert them that this was done?

Hello Jordan, 
Yes I wanted to send an alert to a GROUP of sales individuals on certain events.  I have a few triggers running with specific emails added. I wanted to, instead of entering emails one by one, just say send to this group of people (based on a smart list created). My other solution (managed outside of Marketo and not under my direct control): I was going to create an email distributionb groups like "Sales@... . " 

My goal was to work with a solution inside of Marketo. 

Purpose: Not having to add/remove idividual emails from alerts which could could be error prone.

Hi Anton -
These types of distribution lists are managed by your own internal IT department most likely. We have exactly what you're discussing, a sales address for each business unit salesfr@ salesnl@ salesuk@  and whenever someone needs to be added or removed they speak to IT.

But this is just a normal email address as far as Marketo is concerned. It think it's just like any other.

Hey Adam Thanks. I am  in the process of requesting business unit addresses. I am not in control of that so I wanted to know of there was a way I could just creat lists in marketo and not have to rely on someone else.
