# What is a list?

A list is a saved compilation of contacts that you assign a name to. It helps in keeping things organized and is essential for automated campaigns.

Lists serve as the basis for recurring campaigns.

Lists are dynamic. For instance, if you have a list of recipients for birthday cards, editing the list will determine who receives future cards.
