# Adding and Importing Contacts

### Adding Contacts with a CSV File

The easiest way to get started is to import contacts through a **CSV**. This can be exported from your CRM, or wherever you keep customer information.

A basic CSV should contain the following information fields:

1. First Name
2. Last Name
3. Email
4. Phone Number
5. Status - such as “Sold” “No-Show” “Demo-Set” etc
6. Created or Updated Date

If your CSV contains more fields, we will enter those as well as contact details for easy reference. Use [our Template](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Lh3H-kFJ3qVdWlXsAJ_AbzV_Eaho8ROaSJN5KUPZKkY/edit?usp=sharing) to get started
