hello Vipers for this what's the flow
0:04
we're going to talk about how to add
0:06
contacts to your contact lists now why
0:10
would you want to do this well contact
0:12
lists are primarily used for sending
0:14
mass emails and mass texts to groups of
0:17
your contacts so if you're looking to
0:21
send out that kind of communication and
0:23
you don't already have a contact list
0:25
put together of those people who you
0:27
want to communicate with well then
0:29
continue watching this video we'll talk
0:32
about a few different ways you can go
0:33
about doing this and uh some of them are
0:36
very quick and easy some of them are a
0:37
little bit more advanced but uh by the
0:40
end you'll know what to do so first of
0:42
all you can just simply add all of your
0:46
contacts to a list or you can select a
0:48
few this is a more manual task but it is
0:51
simpler um and so first of all looking
0:54
here at contact lists I have made this
0:57
contact list for this example
1:00
and if you need a refresher to create a
1:02
list you can just go right here to
1:04
create and then create empty list would
1:07
be how you make a new one which will you
1:10
will then fill
1:12
up so we got this list right here I'm
1:14
going to go back to my
1:17
contacts and I'm just going to select a
1:21
few and add them to an existing list and
1:27
I did that by clicking up here to find
1:29
the options to interact with those ones
1:31
that I have selected add to existing
1:34
list in here I'll choose my list I can
1:37
search for it there it is example list
1:41
1026 and hit
1:44
okay I refresh head back to my contact
1:49
list and here we
1:53
go
1:55
now let's uh let's go back to my
1:58
contacts and if I want want to add all
2:00
of my contacts I can just click on this
2:03
right
2:04
here select
2:07
all and add to existing
2:13
list so those are a couple of either
2:16
just you know simply adding everybody or
2:19
doing it a little bit more
2:20
manually but let's say you have another
2:23
existing list but you want to add them
2:25
so in other words maybe there's a
2:28
communicate with everybody list that you
2:29
working with or some sort of newsletter
2:32
list and you've got a subset that you're
2:33
looking to add like it also might be a
2:36
sign up form I'll be showing you how to
2:37
do that in a second so I want to go
2:40
first of all to my contact
2:43
lists and let's just say that I've got
2:47
this list right here and I want to add
2:49
these people to my main one well I can
2:51
go into this list and very similar is a
2:54
very similar process to before where I'm
2:57
now in this list and I can select all
3:00
click on this and hit add to existing
3:03
list now this is just going to add them
3:05
it's going to be like a single time um
3:08
so it's something you'd have to stay on
3:09
top of but this is how you can go about
3:13
doing
3:15
that Additionally you could go to your
3:19
uh signup
3:21
forms
3:23
and click in go to your
3:28
signups
3:33
slow this
3:38
load I can select them and add signups
3:42
to an existing contact
3:49
list also while over here I'll just show
3:51
you quickly if you want that to be an
3:53
ongoing thing where everybody who fills
3:55
out this form gets added to your list
3:58
you can do that from the admin page page
4:00
right
4:00
here add signups to other contact
4:06
lists and if we save that setting right
4:09
there everybody who fills out this form
4:12
will also be added to that contact
4:15
list now another thing you can do is
4:17
let's say you have a a
4:19
CSV in other words like an export from
4:22
somewhere else and you want to on mass
4:26
add them to an existing contact list
4:30
I'm not going to go through the whole
4:31
process because it's basically the same
4:32
as importing but I'll just get you
4:34
started here and we'll uh
4:37
include in uh like on the page a link to
4:41
how to import
4:42
contacts so from there you want to go
4:45
into your contact
4:47
list hit add
4:50
contacts and you'll go through the
4:53
import contacts right here click on that
4:56
drag and drop your CSV here and you can
4:58
continue through that that process also
5:01
note that while you're here you've got
5:03
search contacts and create contacts so
5:06
you can search for contacts right here
5:08
and add
5:11
them looks like they're already on the
5:13
list and you can also create a brand new
5:16
contact and after you're done creating
5:19
that contact it will be added to the
5:23
list lastly uh removing contacts is an
5:26
important process of managing your list
5:28
let's say you want to take somebody off
5:30
of the list well it's very similar just
5:33
you can select your contacts go right
5:36
here remove from contact list and they
5:40
will no longer be a part of your
5:42
list so I hope that you find this
5:45
helpful and of course always feel free
5:47
to reach out if you have any questions
