Bulk-applying tags by an import
When importing prospects, tags can also be applied in bulk.
To get started, make sure that the CSV has columns for tags.After creating the columns for tags, put any value (like x) on the row of the prospects that must be tagged.
Leaving a row blank means the Tag won't be applied.
Here's an example of a CSV with columns for Tags.
Here's a screen recording of how to map the CSV tag columns with the tags in QuickMail to apply tags to the prospects.
Note: If the prospects that will be imported are already in the Prospect list, make sure to check the checkbox "Update Prospect if Exist." This is so that the tags will be applied to the prospects.
