We plan to appeal to all 'professional women' - the movers and shakers - in our database. In figuring how to best pull them, these questions come to mind:

1. How to address all the women employees in an office. Most of them are not 'contacts' for the business. For ex., a law firm has a 30 relationships, half of them women, none of them as key contact. I can query on 'female' and export 30 to 50 relationships per business (assuming I don't have more than 50 relationships on any one business).

2. Some of the professional women are the spouse half of an individual record. How to pull them? I usually rely heavily on head of household; this will be a mixture. How to correctly address them? (Many do not have addressee/salutation set up). And how to be sure it is not a duplicate of a business contact?

3. Once I have these women sorted out, how would you code this sort of identifying? constituency? attribute?

Thanks for your thoughts!

Once you identify these records, do you think it might be feasible to give those that are the head constituent a constituent attribute, and those that are the spouse half of an individual record a relationship attribute.

This is an interesting question you pose.
