Add or Edit Contacts

The contact list in your OutboundEngine account is used to send your marketing materials to your sphere of influence and book of business.  An email address is the only information that our system requires for each of your contacts, but if you would like to keep a more detailed record for that contact you can include the following information: 

• First and Last Name

• Company Name

• Birthday

• Home Purchase Date (Real Estate clients only)

• Phone Number(s)

• Physical Address

• Notes (an open field where you can keep any relevant info about this contact)

Note: We will do nothing with this information aside from store it for you.  For more information, refer to our Terms of Use.
