Recommended Fields
First Name
Last Name
Email
Phone
Company Name
☐ (Optional) Click + Add Tag to organize your contact.
☐ (Optional) Assign the contact to a team member, if applicable.
☐ Click Create.
Success Check
Your contact has been created successfully when:
✔ The contact record opens after clicking Create.
✔ The contact appears in your Contacts list.
✔ You can search for the contact using their name, email address, or phone number.
Pro Tip
💡 Add tags when creating a contact to keep your database organized from the start. This makes it easier to filter contacts and build automations later.
Troubleshooting
I don't see the + Add Contact button.
Make sure you're on the Contacts page.
Refresh your browser and try again.
If you're using a team account, your user permissions may limit access to creating contacts.
I can't save the contact.
Check that all required fields are completed.
If the contact already exists, review your contact list to avoid creating a duplicate record.
