Add Contacts to List HubSpot

To organize your contacts efficiently, adding them to a list is crucial. Lists can be used for targeted marketing campaigns, sales follow-ups, or simply for better organization of your contacts.

HubSpot Import Contacts

For bulk addition of contacts, importing contacts into HubSpot is the most efficient method. You can import contacts from a CSV, XLSX, or XLS file, and HubSpot allows for the import of various object types including contacts, companies, deals, and more.

How to Add Contacts to a List in HubSpot

Once contacts are added to HubSpot, you might want to organize them into lists based on certain criteria. HubSpot offers the flexibility to create both static and active lists, depending on your needs. Active lists auto-update based on criteria, while static lists remain unchanged unless manually edited.

1. Navigate to Contacts > Lists in your HubSpot account.
2. Click "Create list" and select whether you want an Active or Static list.
3. Set your list criteria by adding filters. For example, you can create a list of contacts from a specific location or those who have engaged with your emails.
4. Save your list. For active lists, contacts who meet the criteria will automatically be added. For static lists, you can manually add contacts or import them.

By leveraging these methods, you can efficiently manage and organize your contacts in HubSpot, enabling you to create more targeted and effective marketing and sales strategies.
