Contacts And Groups
Manage GrowthEngene contacts, groups, imports, dedupe behavior, and campaign enrollment.
Quick Answer
How Contacts Are Used
Contacts are the reusable people records behind campaigns and outreach. Groups help segment contacts by source, campaign, role, company, or workflow.
GrowthEngene can receive contacts from LinkedIn Jobs, LinkedIn Posts, Search Intelligence, email discovery, manual imports, and pipeline output. The contact record should preserve enough evidence for review and future dedupe.
- Store contacts from discovery workflows.
- Import contacts by CSV where supported.
- Group contacts for campaigns.
- Track evidence, emails, and engagement.
- Avoid duplicate outreach with dedupe and suppression rules.
What A Good Contact Record Includes
A good contact is not just a name and email. It should carry source evidence, company relation, role context, confidence, and outreach history so users can understand why the person is in the workspace.
- Person name, role, company, and profile URL where available.
- Source such as LinkedIn job, LinkedIn post, Search Intelligence candidate, import, or provider result.
- Contact methods such as email, phone, LinkedIn URL, apply link, or role mailbox.
- Confidence, verification status, and evidence URL.
- Campaign enrollment, reply, applied, not interested, or suppression history.
How To Use Groups
Groups are practical segments. Use them to prepare campaign audiences, organize imports, hold review batches, or separate contacts by use case.
- Create groups for specific campaigns or workflows.
- Keep imported lists separate from discovered contacts until reviewed.
- Use groups to test small outreach batches before scaling.
- Avoid mixing unrelated personas in the same group.
Dedupe And Suppression
Contacts should not receive duplicate or inappropriate outreach. Dedupe, suppression, unsubscribe, and qualification states help keep outreach controlled.
- Check for existing workspace person records before creating new contacts.
- Preserve source history instead of duplicating the same person.
- Respect unsubscribe and suppression lists before campaign enrollment.
- Use not interested, not related, applied, or reviewed states to avoid repeated work.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can contacts come from multiple sources?
Yes. Contacts may come from LinkedIn jobs, LinkedIn posts, imports, email discovery, or search intelligence workflows.
What is the difference between contacts and groups?
Contacts are individual people or contact records. Groups are segments used to organize contacts for review, campaigns, imports, or workflow output.
Why should contact evidence be preserved?
Evidence explains why the contact exists, where it came from, how confident the system is, and whether it is safe to use for outreach.
