Hi, @jennifers131!

That's ok!  We can help you get started collecting contacts, the good kind too, the ones that opt-into your list and give you permission to email them.  To start, you need a sign-up form. It can be as basic as a sign-up sheet near your cash register, but we also have a whole array of different sign-up methods depending on where you are collecting your contacts from. This Knowledge Base article covers all of the different options for both in-person and online interactions.

It can feel overwhelming when you're getting started, so be sure to check out our Community article for List Growth 101. It's the perfect jumping-off point and breaks the whole process down into digestible bites.

Good luck, and let us know what method you start with!
