Tags are a fast, flexible way to indicate a contact's status or show they are part of a group. You can think of tagging as placing a contact into multiple folders.

Tags are a versatile feature and can be used in many different ways— from creating segments of contacts to creating conditional content in your emails. Listed below are a few ways to get you started.

  • Create segments
    Tags can be used to segment contacts and create advanced searches.
  • Trigger automations
    You can trigger automations to run when a contact is added or removed from contacts.
  • Use tags as conditions in automation actions
    For example, you can use a tag as a condition in a wait step, and If/else statement, or a goal condition.
  • Adjust a Contact or Deal score
    Contact scores are available on Marketing and Sales Plus, Professional, and Enterprise
