What is a contact list?
A contact list is a set of contacts that can be used for running campaigns. Users can add a maximum of 1000 contacts per list with any of our paid plans.
How to add contacts?
There are two ways you can add contacts.
- Bring your own contacts and add them by entering their Twitter usernames
- Use our sophisticated Twitter index to search for contacts that fit your product niche and are more probable to respond to you
There's nothing fancy about the first option. Let's dive deeper into the second option.
So you want to get the word out about your startup. How can you find the right contacts?
For starters, you could build a contact list with the followers of
ProductHunt
or BetaList
or any other startup directory Twitter accounts. The reason you want to do this is people who follow these type of accounts are more probable to try out a new product in the market.This is just a starting point. You could then go on and refine more based on your product niche. You could use our 'Bio' filter to fetch contacts that have a particular keyword(s) in their bio. Or you could use our 'Tweet Search' to fetch contacts who've tweeted certain keywords or hashtags in the past. You get the point, right? You could refine your search perfectly to get the most suited contacts one could ask for.
