The Google contacts plugin lets you send out email marketing campaigns to your Google contacts. You select which mailing list you want to import from your contacts and the Google contacts plugin transforms the contacts in your Google account into newsletter recipients.

Note: Another way to access this plug-in is through Bulk actions.

To import Google contacts through integrations:

  1. In the top navigation bar, click Account_icon.png and click Integrations.NEWIntegration.png
  2. On the Integrations page, find Google Contacts and click Select.NEWListIntegrations.png

    • No, import everything - import all the fields in your list of subscribers.

  7. If you have consent from an external source, select Yes, add them as verified, I do have consent from these members and click Next.
  8. On the Data Mapping tab, click each drop-down list and select the default fields or a custom field. If you want to map a specific column to a field, click the Map to drop-down list, then click the field to use, and click Next. 
    Note: When mapping your data to a custom field, you can select an existing custom field, or you can create a new custom field in each column.Snag_411253.png
