aruniyer idea kinda worked, but doesn’t work if you have 99+ contacts.
I just want a simple method to bulk associate multiple contacts from one company to another company. Since the contacts from Company A, are now taking on the name of Company B, but many of the contacts in Company A still use use Company A’s email domain. And I don’t know their new email address and theri old email address still works since it gets forwarded via their internal email workflow.
Looking at HubSpot’s options to bulk update Company Association…one option is to export the contacts and then import them back in and associate to the new Company. This is a convulated method to make a simple update and I don’t want to risk either messing up the contact’s info or creating duplicate contacts.
There should be an option to simply go into Company A (the company which the corporate name will no longer be used and I want to delete this Company A), view all contacts, click on all the contacts, then go into Edit and there should be a dropdown option to ‘Associate to Company’ with a drop down of all the Companies listed in my HubSpot universe, then just click and have the bulk update.
With all the mergers and acqusitions that occur on a daily basis, and many of the acquired company’s name being sunsetted, this has to be a need for many HubSpot customers.
