    How to Import Contacts with SimpleTexting

    In just a few steps you can have your entire contact list imported.

    First, log into SimpleTexting and navigate to “Contacts” on the left-hand side of your screen.

    Then, click New list and give the list a name. In this example, we’ll name ours “Employees.” Click Create list.

    If you have an existing file of consenting contacts, in a CSV or Excel spreadsheet, click on the Add contacts button.

    Before uploading, make sure you set up your file with a header row so that you can easily map the fields, like shown below.

    Now, click Choose a file or just drag and drop the file you want to upload. Then select which list your contacts will be added to, and click Next.

    When importing contacts, you can choose to add more than just a phone number. We’ve created custom fields for you to use, and you can include your own by scrolling down and clicking Add a new custom field.
