Almost every sales and marketing team relies on a customer relationship management (CRM) tool to organize and track their pipeline through the sales cycle. With its all-in-one platform of sales, marketing, and business process management tool, Ontraport is a popular choice.

But Ontraport likely isn't the only app you use, and keeping it in sync with those other tools can feel like an impossible challenge. Instead of spending your time manually pasting in customer data—or giving up and letting your contact list get as outdated as a flip phone—consider letting your CRM update itself.

With Zapier, you can create fully automated workflows (we call them Zaps) that do work across your apps—like creating new Ontraport contacts, backing up data in a spreadsheet, and more. Here's how.

New to Zapier? It's workflow automation software that lets you focus on what matters. Combine user interfaces, data tables, and logic with thousands of apps to build and automate anything you can imagine. Sign up for free to use this app, and thousands more, with Zapier.

Create contacts from events and appointments

Whether you're running a tradeshow booth, scheduling individual sales demos, or providing appointment-based services, keeping your business contacts organized is crucial. As a CRM, Ontraport is great for organizing them—but you still have to get their info into Ontraport and keep it updated, which can be a real challenge.

Instead of manually typing in contact info or bulk importing it from a tool like your scheduling app, you can automate the process with Zapier. For example, you can use a Zap to automatically create (or update!) contacts in Ontraport based on event attendees, webinar registrations, or appointment bookings.

                      Rather than updating spreadsheets manually, you can automate the process. With Zapier, you can create an automated workflow that adds data to a spreadsheet based on Ontraport activity—like whenever a tag is added to a contact.

                            Instead of moving those leads by hand, try automation instead. Try one of these Zaps that add new leads to Ontraport whenever someone replies to a social media ad or sends you an email.
