# Using the “Last Contacted” Filter

How to use last contacted filter?

The **Last Contacted** filter helps you find contacts you haven’t contacted recently so you can re-engage cold leads with precision.

Whether it’s been **7 days or 6 months**, this filter makes it easy to segment your audience based on the time since your last interaction.

### 🔍 How It Works

You can filter contacts by the number of days, weeks, or months since they were last contacted.  
This includes:

-   Emails sent
    
-   Replies received
    
-   Any touchpoint logged via Salesforge
    

Just set the timeframe you want, and Salesforge will surface all contacts who haven’t been contacted within that period.
