Create a list from tagged contacts

Article: 000006062
Updated: November 5, 2025

Select all the contacts with a specific tag and add them to a new or existing contact list

Clock IconSave time: When you create and send an email, you can choose to filter your lists by tags and either send to or exclude contacts with a tag. No need to move them to a new list first!

 

Tags help you segment your list into sub-groups of contacts within a list or across multiple lists. Tagged contacts can be added to a contact list at any time, and you can create a new list just for them or add them to an existing list. Your choice!

  1. From the Contacts page, click the button with the three dots in the upper right-hand corner and select the "Manage tags" option.

    Repeat these steps for each tag with contacts you want to add to the list. Once your tagged contacts are added to the list, you can engage with them by sending an email with targeted and personalized content to the list or, if your contacts have opted into SMS marketing, you can also send an SMS message to the list too.
