28 Feb Export Your Google Contacts
Over the last year, I've been spending a lot of time automating my business. I have found that the best way to make sure your business is successful, is to take you out of it as much as possible. A part of my process was to get my contacts all in the same place. If you're like me you probably have contacts in Google, contacts in Outlook, contacts into another program, etc. So here's a quick and easy way to export your contacts from Google and get them into the CRM of your choice.
Exporting Gmail contacts
You can quickly export your Gmail Contacts list into a CSV file. Here's how:
- Sign in to Gmail.
- Click Gmail at the top-left corner of your Gmail page, then choose Contacts.
- From the More drop-down menu, select Export....
- Choose whether to export all contacts or only one group.
- Select the format in which you'd like to export your contacts' information. Please note, some of these formats can lose some contact information.
- To transfer contacts between Google accounts, use the Google CSV format. This is the recommended way to back up your Google Contacts.
- To transfer contacts to Outlook, Yahoo! Mail, Hotmail, or various other apps, use the Outlook CSV format.
- To transfer contacts to Apple Address Book, use the vCard format.
- Click Export.
- Choose Save to Disk then click OK.
- Select a location to save your file, and click OK.
Depending on the requirements of the program to which you're exporting your contacts from Gmail, you can easily edit the file to fit your needs.
