Lead Tags

What are Lead Tags?

Lead Tags are labels you can attach to leads to categorize and organize them beyond the standard status pipeline. Tags are flexible — you can create any tags that make sense for your business and assign multiple tags to a single lead.

Why use Lead Tags?

Use caseExample
Categorize leadsTag leads as "Hot", "Warm", or "Cold" based on interest level
Track sourceTag leads by where they came from — "Facebook Ad", "Website", "Referral"
Segment for campaignsUse tags to create targeted groups for drip campaigns
Flag for follow-upTag leads as "Urgent" or "VIP" for priority handling

Creating Tags

  1. Go to the Leads page
  2. Open a lead's detail view
  3. In the Tags section, type a new tag name
  4. Press Enter or click Add to create and assign the tag

Tags are created on-the-fly — just type a name and it becomes available for all leads.

Assigning Tags to Leads

  1. Open a lead's detail view
  2. In the Tags section, click Add Tag
  3. Select from existing tags or type a new one
  4. The tag is instantly assigned to the lead

You can assign multiple tags to a single lead.

Removing Tags from Leads

  1. Open a lead's detail view
  2. In the Tags section, find the tag you want to remove
  3. Click the X button on the tag
  4. The tag is removed from this lead (but remains available for other leads)

Using Tags for Filtering

Tags can be used to filter leads on the Leads page:

  1. Go to Leads
  2. Use the Tag filter to select one or more tags
  3. The list shows only leads with the selected tags

Using Tags with Drip Campaigns

Tags can trigger drip campaigns:

  • When creating a campaign, select On Tag as the trigger
  • Choose the tag that should start the campaign
  • Whenever that tag is added to a lead, the campaign starts automatically
tip

Combine tags with drip campaigns for powerful automation. For example, tag a lead as "Interested in Product X" and automatically start a nurturing sequence about that product.

Tips

  • Keep tags consistent — Use a naming convention so your team uses the same tags
  • Don't over-tag — Too many tags become hard to manage. Stick to categories that add real value
  • Review tags periodically — Remove tags that are no longer used to keep the list clean
