Add contacts to Geniechat

Geniechat is designed to help you keep track of your engagement activities. There are a few ways to getting contact information into your Geniechat account.

1. Moving your contacts from another system? Easily import via CSV from the desktop version of Geniechat.
- Be sure to have the same exact columns in your CSV file as the demo file. To download the demo file, click here.
- If you have any extra columns in your file, the import will not work. For instance, if you have a column for "Customer ID" - our file does not have this column because we do not import that information. Therefore, you will need to delete that column and any extra column that doesn't match.
- You do not need to have information in every column, but do need the column header at minimum.
- The only columns you should have are these 19:
  1. First Name (be sure your column header says First Name, it will error if the column header only has "First")
  2. Last Name (be sure your column header says Last Name, it will error if the column header only has "Last")
  3. Email
  4. Phone Number
  5. Facebook (be sure to include the entire link with the https://www.facebook.com/etc)
  6. Instagram (be sure to include the entire link with the https://www.facebook.com/etc)
  7. Linkedin (be sure to include the entire link with the https://www.facebook.com/etc)
  8. Tiktok (be sure to include the entire link with the https://www.facebook.com/etc)
  9. Twitter (be sure to include the entire link with the https://www.facebook.com/etc)
  10. Street Address (there is only one field for address, so be sure to combine Apt #'s and such into that one field)
  11. City
  12. State
  13. Country
  14. Zipcode
  15. Birth Day
  16. Birth Month
  17. Connected with me about (leave this column blank and use tags to organize contacts)
  18. About (use this column for any notes you'd like imported into the Notes field)
  19. Tags (be sure to format tags with # hasthag and a , comma between tags #customer,#lovesgold,#host)
