Setting Up Filters (How to forward ANY expert request email to your Press Jockey account!)

Step 1: Forwarding your expert request emails to Press Jockey

In Gmail, type in the name of one of the platforms that you get expert requests from. For example, you can type in “HARO” or “Qwoted” in your search bar. You can type in any platform that you get expert requests from. Press enter.

This will bring up all of the emails that you’ve received that have your searched word in it. 

Step 2: Click the “Show Search Options” icon in your search bar. 

It looks like this:

Step 3: Click the “Create Filter” button.

Make sure one (or multiple) of the following have been filled out:

• Has the words: _________ (include one of the words from the platforms you’d like to forward, in this case you can see I’ve included the word “haro”.)
• From: _________ (you can include any of the expert request platforms emails here)

Step 4: Select the Press Jockey email address from your forwarding option

Make sure you click on the checkmark next to the “Forward it to:”

Select the Press Jockey email address.

Once you click on “Create filter” only these specific emails will be forwarded to Press Jockey. They will also still remain in your account.

• We’d also recommend “Skip the inbox (Archive it)” so the emails don’t clog your inbox. 
• We’d also recommend “Apply the label: Choose label” to these emails so that they land in a folder of your choosing.
