Thanks for confirming @HSaunders. This is not going to be beautiful
I hope I’m not overlooking anything but I believe we have to leverage one of the automatic unenrollment triggers. Unenroll contacts from a sequence
The only one that seems like it can be manipulated would be the reply of a contact from the same company.
This could be “abused” by first creating a dummy company and associating one internal contact to it, someone from your team. You could then export all affected contacts and reimport them, mapping them to the dummy company during import.
You would then enroll your internal contact into a sequence and have them reply to it.
Since all contacts are now associated with the same company as your internal contact, the reply should all unenroll them.
You would wrap up by deleting the dummy company.
Let me know if that makes sense and which part I should explain in more detail.
PS. I would probably test this on 10 contacts first and only after reviewing all workflows that trigger by contact/company association.
@karstenkoehler what am I missing?? While you can only bulk unenroll using workflows with Enterprise, if you have Professional you can still unenroll more than one at a time via the Enrollment tab from the sequence:
@Jnix284 I potentially incorrectly assumed that not all enrolled contacts were mistakenly enrolled but some enrolments are valid. In that case, you couldn’t remove all as it would stop valid enrolments. @HSaunders is it a mix or just incorrectly enrolled ones? If it’s the latter, bulk unenrollment from the sequence page as suggested by @Jnix284 would work perfectly fine, correct. In that case I jumped to conclusions. If it’s a mix, my recommendation still applies.
@karstenkoehler there is a lot to untangle with this one, I thought I was missing something obvious because of the workaround (pretty smart hack you came up with!)
@HSaunders mentioned pausing the sequence, which made it sound like the entire sequence was paused, not just for that list, in either case, the view can also be filtered on the left to view only those that were paused and then those could be removed rather than the full enrollees if there are more than the 400 from the list that was paused.
Changing from All enrollments to Paused will narrow the list before unenrolling
Our app, Enrollem now allows now a custom ‘unenroll from sequence’ action to your workflow without the need for Sales Enterprise plan if you want to automate a process for unenrolling contacts from a sequence. This is action is available on all our paid plans. Check it out here
I wanted to check if there is a way to bulk unenroll contacts from a sequence directly from the contact view or a list. Sometimes we identify a group of contacts who are currently enrolled in a sequence but should be removed due to changes in targeting, ownership, or geography. At the moment, it seems we need to go into each contact individually to unenroll them, which becomes very time-consuming. Is there a way to: Bulk unenroll contacts from a sequence from a static/active list, or Bulk select contacts from the contact view and unenroll them from an active sequence? If not natively possible, are there any workarounds using workflows, sequence filters, or other methods to manage this more efficiently? Would appreciate any guidance or best practices.
The accepted solution from @Jnix284’s is still relevant to this day. You can unenroll automatically via workflows like seen here and you can manually bulk unenroll from the sequence enrollment tab, like seen here!
Additionally, @Ian_Matt provided some insight into their app within the HubSpot Marketplace. That may also be worth looking into!
