BizStackPro Contacts Help Guide

Using the Bulk Action Features

Learn how to select multiple contacts and perform larger contact updates such as sending messages, changing pipeline information, managing tags, exporting records, and running other supported bulk actions.

Quick Answer

How do you use Bulk Actions in BizStackPro?

Open Contacts or a Smart List, select the contacts you want to work with, choose the appropriate bulk action, complete its settings, and confirm the action. You can then monitor supported bulk requests from Contacts → Bulk Actions.

What Bulk Actions Do

Managing contacts one record at a time can become inefficient when the same action needs to be performed across a larger group.

Bulk Actions let you select multiple contacts and apply a supported action across the group.

Depending on the action, you can update pipeline information, add contacts to campaigns or workflows, send messages, manage tags, export records, import contacts, merge duplicates, connect contacts to companies, and perform other bulk operations.

Bulk Actions can also be monitored after they start so you can review status, statistics, and available controls for the request.

Use Bulk Actions when the same change applies to many contacts

Selecting the correct audience before starting the action can reduce repetitive work and help keep larger contact updates consistent.

Before You Begin

Review the selected contacts and the action you plan to run before confirming a larger contact update.

  • Sign in to your BizStackPro account.
  • Open Contacts or the Smart List containing the records you need.
  • Confirm the correct contacts are selected before starting the action.
  • Review the settings specific to the bulk action you are using.
  • Use Drip Mode when supported and appropriate for a larger messaging list.
  • Review actions carefully before confirming irreversible changes such as merging records.

Available Bulk Actions

BizStackPro provides several bulk tools for managing groups of contacts.

Pipeline Change

Update opportunity information such as pipeline stage, lead value, and other supported opportunity details.

Add to Campaign or Workflow

Add selected contacts to supported campaigns or automated workflows.

Send SMS or Email

Send supported bulk SMS or email messages using custom content or saved templates.

Add or Remove Tags

Apply or remove contact tags across a selected group.

Delete Contacts

Delete selected contact records when the appropriate permissions are available.

Export selected contact records to a .csv file and choose the fields you want included.

Import Contacts

Use the contact import process to upload larger contact lists.

Send Review Requests

Send supported review requests using scheduling or drip settings when Reputation setup is available.

Merge Duplicates

Merge up to 10 duplicate contact records. The original guide notes that the merge is irreversible.

Add or Edit Company

Assign contacts to a company or update company associations across selected contacts.

Bulk WhatsApp

Run supported WhatsApp campaigns using Meta-approved templates, subject to the messaging limits and rules available for the account.

How to Use Bulk Actions

Select the contacts first, then choose and configure the action you want to perform.

Open Contacts or a Smart List

Go to Contacts and open the main Contacts view or the appropriate Smart List.

Select the Contacts

Use the available checkboxes to select individual contacts or select all when that option is appropriate and available.

Choose the Bulk Action

Click the icon or action control for the bulk operation you want to perform.

Configure the Action

Complete the settings shown in the action's popup or configuration window.

Confirm the Bulk Action

Review the selected contacts and settings, then confirm to start the action.

Consider Drip Mode for larger messaging lists

The original guide recommends using Drip Mode to pace large messaging sends rather than processing the full audience at once.

Manage and Monitor Bulk Actions

Review active and completed requests from the Bulk Actions area.

Open Bulk Actions

Go to Contacts → Bulk Actions.

Filter the Action List

Use available filters to narrow requests by type, user, status, or date range.

Open the Action Menu

Use the three-dot (⋮) menu next to an action to access available controls such as cancel, pause, resume, or revert when those options are supported.

Review Show Stats

Click Show Stats to review available performance information and error details.

How "Repeat after" works in Drip Mode

The original guide explains that Repeat after behaves like run every. For example, a setting of 100 contacts every 5 hours continues processing batches until the selected list is complete.

Bulk Action Best Practices

Check the Selected Audience
Reason: Confirming the selected contacts before starting the action helps prevent unintended changes across the wrong records.
Use Drip Mode When Appropriate
Reason: Drip settings let supported bulk requests process contacts in batches over time.
Monitor Bulk Action Status
Reason: The Bulk Actions area lets you review processing status, available controls, statistics, and errors after an action has started.
Review Irreversible Actions Carefully
Reason: The original guide identifies actions such as merging duplicate contacts as irreversible, so the selected records should be checked before confirming.
