How Do I Add Contacts to a List on Bookyourdata?

BookYourData adds contacts to a list by selecting records, then clicking Add to List. Lists organize prospects and do not unlock or download them.

Written by Mark Giz

BookYourData adds contacts to a list by selecting the records first, then clicking the "Add to List" button. A list groups the selected contacts together for later action and does not unlock or download them on its own.

List membership is separate from record access. Use lists to organize prospects during research, then unlock or download the contacts you need from inside the list when you are ready.

How to Add Contacts to a List

Adding contacts to a list on BookYourData takes three steps: select records, click "Add to List," then choose a list.

  1. Select the records you want to add.

  2. Click the "Add to List" button.

  3. Create a new list for the records, or add them to an existing list of your choice.

What Adding to a List Does

Adding records to a list organizes them. It does not unlock or download the records.

A list is a holding place for contacts you plan to act on. Records stay locked and undownloaded until you unlock or download them directly, either individually or in bulk from inside the list.

Accessing Your Lists

BookYourData stores every list under the "My List" tab on the left sidebar.

Open "My List" anytime to manage the contacts in each list, download them, or unlock them in bulk.

Save Filters as an Alternative

Save Filters preserves the search criteria behind a list, not the contact records themselves.

Use Save Filters to keep a specific combination of filters for easy replication or adjustment in a future search, instead of a fixed set of contacts. A list stores the contacts. Save Filters stores the search that found them.

FAQ

Does adding contacts to a list use up my access to those records?
No. Adding contacts to a list only organizes them. Unlocking and downloading are separate actions, taken afterward, either one record at a time or in bulk from the list.

What is the difference between a list and Save Filters?
A list stores the actual contact records selected. Save Filters stores the filter criteria itself, for rerunning or adjusting the same search later instead of keeping a fixed set of contacts.

Where do I find my saved lists?
Open the "My List" tab on the left sidebar. From there, manage, download, or unlock the contacts in each list in bulk.
