Managing your contacts using labels
Labels allow you to categorize contacts into different groups based on their relationship with you and your business. You can use existing labels - or ones you create - to filter your Contact List.
Some labels appear automatically. For example, any client who books a service automatically gets the label for that service. You can add your own labels to contacts
To filter by label, click the Filter by drop-down and select a label.
What's next?
You can also download a list of clients who booked during a specified time period (e.g. a list of all clients who attended classes during a particular week) by exporting a bookings report.
