Lists — Command Hub CRM

Lists

Use Lists to segment contacts and companies into meaningful groups for outreach, automations, and reporting. There are two types of lists:

  • Static lists — fixed membership you can add/remove manually or via imports.
  • Smart lists — rule-based segments that automatically update when data changes.

Why use Lists?

  • Segment for targeted campaigns, automations, and reporting
  • Keep outreach organized with saved segments the team can share
  • Trigger workflows when people or companies join/leave a segment

What’s Included with Lists?

  • Create & manage both Static and Smart lists
  • Filters & rules for fields, engagement metrics, and associations
  • Start automations directly from a list
  • Membership change triggers for when contacts/companies are added or removed

Heads up: When you start an automation from a list, new members can trigger it again if your flow is configured to run on entry.

Automate When Membership Changes

  • When a contact is added to a list — send a welcome/SMS, assign an owner, or create a task.
  • When a contact is removed — stop campaigns or move to a re-engagement list.
  • When a company is added — notify the account owner or update fields automatically.
  • When a company is removed — pause sequences and tag for review.
  • Delete a list

Delete a List

  1. Go to Lists, select the list, then click More > Delete.
  2. Confirm the deletion.
  3. Delete a list

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I add contacts and companies into the same list?

Lists are created for a single object type. Select Contacts or Companies when you create the list.

What’s the difference between Static and Smart lists?

Static lists have fixed members you add/remove manually. Smart lists are rule-based and update automatically as records meet (or no longer meet) the criteria.

Can I trigger automations from a list?

Yes. Start automations directly from any list, or trigger flows when membership changes.
