Overview
e-shot and Monday.com CRM serve fundamentally different roles: e-shot is a contact-centric email marketing and automation platform built around Campaigns, Series, and preference tracking; Monday.com CRM is a visual, board-based work management and sales CRM built around Items, Columns, and Group automations. A migration from e-shot to Monday.com CRM is therefore a data consolidation and restart, not a structural translation. We export Contacts with all custom field values and merge-tag fallback definitions, migrate Tags to Monday.com Labels, preserve subscription preferences in contact-level fields, and deliver campaign reporting as a reference archive. We do not migrate Automated Series, Landing Pages, Forms, or Website Popups because Monday.com CRM has no equivalent campaign-automation layer; these are documented for the customer's admin to rebuild using Monday.com Automations. e-shot's REST API uses paginated extraction within per-tier rate limits (500-5,000 calls per hour) to extract large contact lists without hitting the hourly cap.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a e-shot object lands in monday CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
e-shot
Contact
monday CRM
People
1:1e-shot Contacts map directly to Monday.com CRM People. We export all standard fields (email, first name, last name, phone, address) and custom contact fields defined in e-shot Settings > Contacts field manager. Each e-shot custom field becomes a Monday.com CRM People column; the field type is inferred from the e-shot field type (text, number, date, dropdown) and recreated as the nearest Monday.com column type. Merge-tag fallback values extracted from the field manager are set as default values on the destination column to prevent empty field display in any Monday.com email integrations.
e-shot
Tag
monday CRM
Label
lossye-shot tags stored as field values or list memberships migrate to Monday.com CRM Labels on People. Tags are extracted from the contact export as a comma-separated or multi-select value, then created as Monday.com Label options and applied to the corresponding People records. If the customer uses tags as a taxonomy for segmentation, we document the full tag list during scoping so that labels are created in Monday.com before contact migration begins.
e-shot
Preference
monday CRM
People custom column (multi-select)
1:1e-shot contact preferences (opt-in status, subscription interests, topic preferences) migrate to Monday.com CRM People custom columns. Each active e-shot preference becomes a column: subscription flags become checkbox or toggle columns, and interest-based preferences become multi-select columns. We export only active preferences within the customer's tier limit and flag any preferences exceeding the basic tier ceiling of 25 for admin review before migration.
e-shot
Saved Filter
monday CRM
Board Filter view
lossye-shot Saved Filters define dynamic contact segments using field conditions. We export filter definitions as written segment rules (field, operator, value) and replicate them as Monday.com CRM Board filter views. Since Monday.com filter views are not a data object but a saved UI state, we document the filter logic in a written segment map so the customer's admin can recreate the exact segmentation in Monday.com's filter panel.
e-shot
Campaign
monday CRM
Board item (reference)
1:1e-shot Campaigns hold email content, template body, subject line, sender details, and scheduling. We export campaign records and associated template HTML as a reference archive stored in a Monday.com Workdoc or external document link. The campaign name, status, send date, and subject line are logged as a board item in a Campaign reference board so the customer's team can cross-reference email campaign history with People records. HTML template assets are preserved as-is in a document archive; dynamic content blocks are flagged for manual rebuild if they rely on e-shot's merge-tag engine.
e-shot
Campaign Report
monday CRM
Workdoc or external reference
lossye-shot campaign analytics (opens, clicks, bounces, unsubscribes, delivery health) are pulled from the analytics dashboard and delivered as a CSV archive or a Monday.com Workdoc with a structured table. These metrics do not map to native Monday.com CRM objects because Monday.com does not have an email analytics layer. The archive preserves historical campaign performance for audit and reporting continuity.
e-shot
Form
monday CRM
Form configuration documentation
1:1e-shot Forms store field definitions, field types, and subscription preferences linked to contact records. The form data itself lives in the contact records (migrated to People in Monday.com CRM). Form field definitions are exported as a written configuration map that the customer's admin uses to set up equivalent form logic in a third-party form tool (Typeform, HubSpot Forms, or Monday.com's native form integrations) if form capture continues post-migration.
e-shot
Automated Series
monday CRM
Automation rebuild documentation
1:1e-shot Automated Series are workflow-based email sequences triggered by contact behaviour or date conditions. Monday.com CRM has no equivalent campaign automation layer for email sequences. We export Series definitions (trigger, conditions, delay steps, email actions) as a written inventory document with a recommended Monday.com Automation equivalent for each step. The customer's admin rebuilds the sequences using Monday.com Automations scoped to board item triggers; this document is delivered at the end of migration scope.

Migration approach
Discovery and scoping
We audit the source e-shot account across tier (basic, pro, omni), active contact count, custom contact field definitions, merge-tag fallback syntax, active preferences, active Automated Series, saved filters, tags, landing pages, and campaign reporting history. We identify the highest-volume data objects for migration sequencing and flag any tier-gated content that exceeds the basic tier limits (25 active preferences, 3 series, 10 filters) as candidates for admin review before extraction. The discovery output is a written migration scope with record counts, object inventory, and a migration order recommendation.
Custom column design in Monday.com CRM
We design the Monday.com CRM People board schema based on the e-shot contact field manager. Each e-shot custom field becomes a Monday.com CRM People column; we infer the nearest column type (text, number, date, checkbox, dropdown, multi-select) from the e-shot field definition. We create the column structure in a Sandbox or development board first, apply the column defaults from the e-shot fallback definitions, and create all Monday.com Labels that correspond to e-shot tags before the contact import begins.
Throttled contact extraction and tag extraction
We extract contacts from e-shot using paginated API calls within the account's per-hour rate limit. For basic-tier accounts above 5,000 contacts, we schedule extraction across off-peak hours to avoid hitting the 500-call hourly ceiling during business-day sends. Tags are extracted as a separate data stream from the contact records and deduplicated into a tag taxonomy for Monday.com Label creation. Preference data is extracted as a structured field within each contact record and mapped to the corresponding Monday.com column at load time.
People import with label and preference mapping
We load contacts into Monday.com CRM People using the API or CSV import with the pre-created column structure. Each record receives its corresponding Labels from the tag taxonomy and populates preference columns from the e-shot preference fields. We run a reconciliation pass comparing e-shot contact count and field completeness against Monday.com CRM People count and column fill rates. Any records that fail import due to missing required fields are held in a retry queue and flagged for the customer's admin to resolve.
Campaign report and automation inventory delivery
We pull historical campaign analytics from e-shot (opens, clicks, bounces, delivery health) and deliver the data as a structured CSV and a Monday.com Workdoc with campaign reference entries. We deliver the Automated Series inventory as a written document listing each series name, trigger type, condition logic, delay configuration, and email action, with a recommended Monday.com Automation rebuild approach for each step. Landing page HTML exports and form field configuration maps are delivered as separate reference documents for the customer's marketing team to rebuild in their chosen tool.
Cutover, final delta, and handoff
We freeze writes in e-shot during cutover, run a final delta extraction for any contacts modified during the migration window, and confirm the final People count in Monday.com CRM against the scoping baseline. We validate label coverage and spot-check 25-50 records for field-level accuracy. We deliver all reference documents and support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild e-shot Automated Series, Landing Pages, or Forms inside the migration scope; those deliverables are written handoff documents for the customer's admin to action post-migration.
