Apollo → Smartlead
How to export Apollo contacts to Smartlead
Short answer
Export the Apollo contacts with Scrupp, which finds work emails and phone numbers itself, download the list as CSV, and import it into Smartlead with its own CSV import. There is no Smartlead app to install: the file is the hand-off.
Step by step
From Apollo to Smartlead
-
Step 1
Open your Apollo people search
Set the filters in Apollo’s People search as you normally would, or open a saved search.
-
Step 2
Click the Scrupp button
With the Scrupp Chrome extension installed, click its button on the Apollo results. Scrupp collects the people and finds emails and phones with its own lookup, so Apollo export credits are not used.
-
Step 3
Check the list in your workspace
The rows come back with name, title, company, LinkedIn URL and the work email and phone Scrupp found. Repeated people are flagged.
-
Step 4
Import the file into Smartlead
In Smartlead, open the campaign and import leads from CSV. Map email, first name, last name and company; extra columns become custom fields for personalisation.
What is in the file
Columns you map in Smartlead
Each row is one person. The export carries these columns, plus a few more you can leave unmapped:
- First name
- Last name
- Job title
- Company
- Company domain
- LinkedIn URL
- Work email
- Phone
Before you import
- Smartlead skips rows without an email, so filter them out first. Its import can also skip leads already in other campaigns.
- Test on ten rows first, open two or three records in Smartlead and check the fields landed where you expected.
- The emails and phones in the file are the ones Scrupp found, not Apollo’s. Rows where nothing was found keep the person without a contact.
FAQ
Questions about Apollo to Smartlead
Does this use my Apollo export credits?
No. Scrupp reads the people in your Apollo search and finds the emails and phones itself, so Apollo’s own export and reveal credits are not spent.
Does Scrupp have a native Smartlead integration?
No. Scrupp exports CSV, Excel or JSON, and Smartlead imports the file. Native pushes exist only for HubSpot and Pipedrive.
What does it cost?
Exporting a lead costs 1 credit, plus 1 credit when a work email is found and 2 when a phone number is delivered. Nothing extra is charged for contacts not found. The free plan gives 100 credits a month with no credit card.
Will every row have an email?
No. Across Scrupp exports a work email is found for 36.3% of people, and the share in your list depends on who is in it. Rows with nothing found are still in the file.
