Adding and Managing Contacts

How individual people are recorded and what you can attach to them.

What a contact is

A contact is a person — a lead, a customer, a supplier contact — with an email, phone number, and job title, optionally linked to a company and assigned to a team member as the owner.

Why contacts matter

Deals, tasks, activity notes, and email logs all attach to a contact, which is what turns a name into a real relationship history. Without contacts, deals are anonymous and follow-ups have nothing to hang off.

When to add one

As soon as you have a real conversation worth remembering — a new lead, a referral, someone who asked for a quote. Don't wait until a deal is "serious"; early contacts are how you avoid losing track of a lead in the first place.

How to add and manage contacts

  1. Go to Contacts in the sidebar and click New Contact.
  2. Fill in name, email, phone, title, and optionally link them to an existing company.
  3. Assign an owner — the team member responsible for the relationship.
  4. On a contact's detail page you can log activity notes, log emails, attach deals, and reference a QR Code Pro link (see Linking QR Code Pro to Your CRM Records).

Contact counts are limited per plan (Starter: 50, Growth: 100, Scale: unlimited) — see Understanding Plans and Pricing.
