If you find yourself @mentioning the same group of people over and over again, or when you start new projects, you're consistently adding the same group of people, there's actually an easier way to handle it. I'm Kimberly from the Basecamp team and I'm gonna show you how to do it. So if you're an account owner or an admin, you could head to Adminland and click "Manage groups." From here, you can make a new group and you'll give your group a name. I'll call this one accounting, and then you'll type in the names of the people you want to add to this group. You can also choose those names from a list if you want to. And then once you have them all set, you'll add this group. And you'll see I have a new group here with those individual names. Now anytime you go to @mention these individuals, you can just enter the group name. So here I can type in accounting and those four names populate. That works on to-dos, in the chat, anywhere you can @mention someone, you can at mention the group And when you're creating a new project, let's go here. When you scroll down to choose who's on the project, instead of typing individual names, you can type that group name and those four people will automatically be added. So groups make it so much easier when you're consistently adding the same group of people. You can even make a group of your entire company. And in just a couple of clicks have everyone's individual names populated. Check it out, let us know if you have any questions.
