BRD 3.2 Create a contact list

1. Open Broadcast > Contact List.
2. Select New List.
3. Enter the List Name.
4. Enter a Description. This is optional, but it is where you record the source of the contacts and the basis on which you may message them.
5. Enter Tags and use the add control to apply them.
6. Review the five default Contact Fields:

Field	Type
First Name	As shown in the form.
Last Name	As shown in the form.
Email	As shown in the form.
Phone Number	As shown in the form.
Status	As shown in the form.

1. Check each field's Field Name and Type.
2. Select Add Custom Field to add another field.
3. Select Create List, or Cancel.

Add the custom fields now, before you import. A field added after an import has no values in the existing rows, so any personalisation that uses it renders blank for those contacts. Decide what your templates will need to say and create the fields to carry it before the first import.

The Description is where your consent record lives. Write down where the contacts came from, when, and what they agreed to receive. That sentence is what you will need if a recipient challenges a message, and no other field on this form captures it.
