# Add and remove contacts from an existing list

Having a contact list may require occasional management, which means you may want to add or delete contacts from the list you have already created long ago.

To **add or remove** contacts from an existing list follow these steps:

**1.** Go to the **CRM** section on the left sidebar.

**2**. **Select the contacts** you wish to add by checking the boxes next to the contact's name.

![](https://help.joomag.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/joomag.intercom-attachments-7.comio399966943d34c162ff3d381f3aa8058141JNksUAGSHXm0BAuYM9ypwRH2tYRXPp09-e=download-1.png)

**Note:** When you select a contact the background color changes from white to blue.

**3.** A **plus (+)** will appear on the colored bubble of those lists which do not include the chosen contact. Click it and the contacts will be added automatically.

**4. A **minus (-)** will appear on the colored bubble of those lists which already include the chosen contact. Click it and the contacts will be excluded automatically.**

**Note:** Removing a contact from a list does not delete the contact from the CRM itself.
