Getting your contact data into Infusionsoft can be tedious and time consuming. We’ve simplified the process by creating our Importer tool. This allows you to import contacts in seconds instead of minutes. We’ve included all the features you’d expect a quality import tool to have: apply tags, duplicate merging, save your settings so you can perform additional imports without having to do all the setup work each time, and more. One of our favorite features is the ability to pick which field to use for duplicate merging. For example, you might be importing customers from a shopping cart system. You can import the shopping cart system’s customer ID into Infusionsoft, and tell Importer to use that field when checking for duplicates instead of relying on name or email address. This ensures that you won’t end up with multiple records for the same customer even if they update their email address. Watch the video above to see the Infusionsoft Importer tool in action. Import unlimited contacts for $20 per month. Click here to...

Our Gmail HUD product will be discontinued on July 31. Rapportive, the platform that makes Gmail HUD possible, will be removing all third-party integrations on this date. We’ve found this product immensely useful within our own company, and are sorry to see it discontinued. Unfortunately, we aren’t aware of a comparable product with good reviews. You can try using Infusionsoft Sync for Gmail but we can’t vouch for its speed or...

Allowing your customers to pay over time for high cost items can dramatically increase your conversion rate. Infusionsoft has this capability built-in, but they require the customer to choose whether to pay in full or pay over time when they reach the shopping cart or order form page. One of our subscribers, Sarit Neundorf, asked if it was possible to allow the customer to select the payment plan from the sales page. In this scenario, the customer would be presented with two links: one to make a single payment, and one to make multiple payments over time. When the customer clicks a link to make their selection, they are taken to the shopping cart or order form and the appropriate payment plan is selected automatically. This code will allow you to select the appropriate payment plan for your customer so it will already be selected when they reach the cart or order form. The code is slightly different depending on whether you are using a shopping cart or an order form. In either case, you’ll need to know your payment plan ID. This can be found by going to E-Commerce → Payment Plans, then clicking Edit for your payment plan. The ID will show up in the URL for that page. For example, the URL might be /PayPlanCartItem/managePayPlanCartItem.jsp?view=edit&ID=5, so the ID is 5. You’ll always use an ID of 0 for the single payment option. To use with a shopping cart: To make it possible to pre-select a payment plan with your Infusionsoft shopping cart, go to E-Commerce → E-Commerce Setup → Shopping Cart Themes → Edit → HTML Areas. Copy and paste...
