Creating Google Contact Groups (Labels)
Last Updated 3 months ago

To organize your contacts into groups (such as "Vendors," "Team," or "Clients") using Google Contacts, follow these steps:


1. Create a New Label

  1. Go to contacts.google.com.
  2. On the left-hand menu, scroll down to the Labels section.
  3. Click + Create label.
  4. Type the name for your group and click Save.

2. Add Contacts to your Label

There are two ways to add people to your new group:

Option A: From the main list

  • Hover over the contacts you want to add and check the selection box next to their names.
  • Click the Manage labels icon (it looks like a tag) at the top of the screen.
  • Select the label you want to add them to and click Apply.

Option B: From an individual contact

  • Click on a specific contact to open their details.
  • Click the Label icon or the three dots (More actions).
  • Choose the appropriate label from the list.

3. How to use your Group in Gmail

Once your label is created, you can type the Name of the Label in the "To" field of a new email in Gmail. This will instantly add every member of that group to your message.
