If you want to bulk manage tags in MailBluster, you can tag multiple contacts at the same time using two simple methods.
1. Adding tags via import
First go to Tags. Then click on Create new.
Create a tag by inserting Tag name in the field as shown below. Then add a tag description. Then click on Create tag.
Here we created a tag name “Complaint” for example. Now click on the tag.
Once you are inside the tag, click Import.
Then drop a CSV file containing leads as shown below.
Select a CSV file and click open.
Once the CSV file is selected, click Continue.
Now highlight the headers according to the fields in the CSV file as shown below. Also set the proper conditions like “Update the lead if lead already exists”. Finally click the Import file button.
Your leads will be imported successfully under the tag you have just created.
Now if you click on the Tags, you will notice that it now contains the imported leads. You can click on the tag to see all the imported leads.
Here is an example of dummy leads imported under Complaint and they are all at unsubscribed state.
