Contact Tags

Contact Tags help you group, sort, and identify contacts based on tags you create.

For instance, you might create contact tags to organize which rep is working with that contact, or which stage of the sales funnel they fit into.

To create a new Contact Tag:

1. Go to Contacts.

2. Under Manage, click Contact Tags.

Contacts can have any number of tags or no tags at all. The Details section can also be accessed anywhere else that contact is shown, such as Conversation Blocks or Payments

 

All the Colors You Want

When assigning a color to a Contact Tag, you can either choose one of the preset colors available or make a brand new one. Use the color wheel to determine which color you want and then the shade slider to move between a lighter or darker version of that color. This not only helps when you have dozens of contact tags, but it’s also a lot of fun!

When using the color wheel, keep in mind that not everyone sees color the same way. The quick select colors that appear above the wheel were chosen based on specific guidelines that allow for the widest variety of people to be able to distinguish between. Try to keep your Contact Tag colors as different as possible to prevent people from getting confused. 

 

Where Can I See Contact Tags?

Contact Tags can be found in most places where a Contact Name appears — in your Conversation Views, headers of message threads, Contact Details — as well as in many filter options. The example below shows Contact Tags in the top right corner of a Conversation Block when viewing the Conversation Queue
