1-to-1 Communication with Contacts on a List

Lists are typically an easy way to engage with a large list of contacts, but there can also be a need to send a 1-to-1 message or call to a contact within a saved list. To do so, select either the Email, Call, or Text icon on a given contact within a list.

Action Icons on a Contact List

There are 3 action icons listed on each contact on a given contact list. These icons allow you to create new objects in Swivel related to that contact.

Using this icon, a user can convert the contact to an opportunity. By selecting, this will open the +Create Opportunity modal.

This icon allows you to create a new appointment by selecting from configured appointment types and then opens the +New Appointment Form and will automatically assign the given contact to the appointment

Use this icon in order to create a new product associated to this contact. This will open the +New Product form to complete all applicable fields.


Viewing Communication Results for a Contact List

When viewing a contact list, users can view communication results for the list as a whole, or for individual contacts.

  1. From left side navigation menu, go to either the Contacts, Leads, or Clients tab.

  2. Go to View Lists button on the engagement bar.

  3. Search and select a desired list to view.

View Communication Results - select this option when you want to view all broadcast engagements you have sent to this entire contact list.

Individual Communication Results - to view the engagements you have sent to an individual contact, both broadcast or 1-to-1, select the chevron next to a given contact in the list.
