The lead lists page

See every uploaded list with its totals and import status, and open, rename, finish importing or delete a list.

On this page

Who this is for: anyone who has uploaded at least one list and wants to find, rename or tidy up their lists.

Open Leads in the left menu. The page is titled Lead lists.

The four totals

When all your lists fit on one page, four tiles add them up:

Tile What it counts
Lead lists Uploaded spreadsheets.
Leads People across your lists.
Ready to email Leads that have an email address.
Have a website Leads with a website we can research.

The lists table

Each row is one list with its Leads, Ready to email and Has a website counts, its Status and the date it was Added.

Import status

Status Meaning Button in the row
Not imported yet The file is uploaded, but you have not confirmed the columns and started the import. Import
Importing Rows are being added right now. Continue import
Ready Imported. The list can be opened and used in a campaign. Open
Import stopped The import was interrupted. The leads imported so far are kept. Continue import

Only a list marked Ready can be opened or chosen in a campaign.

Tip: An import that stopped does not start over. Continue import picks up from the row where it stopped.

Open a list

Click the list name or Open. See Work with a list.

Rename a list

  1. Click Rename in the list’s row.
  2. The name turns into a text box. Type the new name (up to 190 characters).
  3. Click Save, or press Enter. Press Escape or click Cancel to keep the old name.

You can also rename a list from inside it, with the Rename button at the top of the list page. Renaming never changes the leads or any campaign.

Delete a list

  1. Click Delete in the list’s row.
  2. Read the confirmation: Delete the list “…” and its N leads? Deleting cannot be undone.
  3. Click Delete list.

Warning: A list that any campaign uses cannot be deleted, even if the campaign has finished. The row then shows This list is used by a campaign. To clear out bad leads from such a list, remove leads instead: see Work with a list and Clean up a list.

Common mistakes

  • Leaving a list on “Not imported yet”. The upload alone does not create leads. Click Import, confirm the columns, then Start import.
  • Uploading the same file twice. Each upload makes a new list. Delete the copy you do not need before a campaign uses it.

Next step

Open a list and get to know its tools: Work with a list.
