Add a contact
- Go to Audience → Contacts.
- Click Add contact.
- Fill in the fields you have. Only one of email or phone is really needed — email for campaigns, phone for WhatsApp.
- Add tags, comma separated, for example
vip, newsletter. - Save.
Fields
| Field | Used for |
|---|---|
| First / last name | Personalising emails |
| Email campaigns | |
| Phone | WhatsApp campaigns |
| Company | Segmenting by account |
| Tags | Grouping and automation triggers |
Phone numbers
Store phone numbers in full international format including the country code. A number without one cannot be messaged on WhatsApp.
Adding several
For more than a handful, use a CSV — see Import Contacts.
Tip — Add tags as you go rather than planning to tidy up later. Tagging a contact at the moment you add them takes two seconds; retro-tagging a list of four hundred does not.
