Map Columns to Lead Properties
Leads you already have — in an old system, in a spreadsheet a manager keeps — move across in one go. The only part that needs your attention is telling the app which column is which.
Steps
Open the add menu
On your leads list, tap the blue add button at the bottom of the screen.
Choose Bulk Import Leads
Pick Bulk Import Leads from the menu.
Say what is in the file
Under Import Type, pick Personal Leads for people or Business Leads for companies. The two need different columns, so get this right before you pick the file.
Choose the file
Tap Select XLSX / CSV File and pick it. The screen fills with the file name, the first rows of it, and one row for every column it found.
Tell it which column is which
Under Map Columns to Lead Properties, set each of your columns to the lead property it holds — your name column to firstName, your phone column to phoneNumber, and so on. Any column you leave alone is not imported.
Import
Tap Import Leads. A line at the bottom tells you how many arrived, how many were duplicates, and how many rows were skipped.
