Overview
Moving from FunnelMaker to GoHighLevel replaces a marketing-heavy platform with a CRM-first ecosystem that offers a documented REST API and white-label resell capabilities. FunnelMaker's core CRM objects—Contacts, Companies, Opportunities, and Pipelines—map directly to GoHighLevel equivalents, but the migration path is constrained by FunnelMaker's lack of a public API. We extract data through in-product CSV downloads and reconcile lookup relationships (Contact-to-Company, Opportunity-to-Pipeline) that CSV exports flatten. Unlimited user-defined fields from FunnelMaker map to GoHighLevel custom fields, and activity history migrates as GoHighLevel Activities tied to the correct Contact record. Workflows, drip campaigns, and lead scoring rules are documented as automation sequences for the customer to rebuild; they do not migrate as code. Call recording audio files and transcription text do not migrate due to FunnelMaker's binary storage format.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a FunnelMaker object lands in HighLevel, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
FunnelMaker
Contact
HighLevel
Contact
1:1FunnelMaker Contacts map directly to GoHighLevel Contacts. All standard fields (name, email, phone, address) migrate, plus unlimited user-defined fields mapped to GoHighLevel custom fields by inspecting the FunnelMaker custom field schema during discovery. Contact tier limits on the FunnelMaker source are flagged during scoping; GoHighLevel's unlimited contact model has no equivalent ceiling to enforce on import.
FunnelMaker
Company
HighLevel
Company / Location
1:1FunnelMaker Company records map to GoHighLevel Companies (or Locations within a sub-account). The company-contact association preserved during export resolves to a GoHighLevel Location record with a Contact lookup. All company-level custom fields migrate as GoHighLevel custom fields on the Company object.
FunnelMaker
Opportunity
HighLevel
Opportunity
1:1FunnelMaker Opportunities map to GoHighLevel Opportunities with deal-stage data, custom opportunity fields, and owner assignment preserved. The Opportunity-to-Pipeline lookup resolves during migration using the pipeline stage mapping documented during discovery.
FunnelMaker
Pipeline
HighLevel
Pipeline
lossyFunnelMaker's customizable drag-and-drop pipelines with user-defined stages reconstruct in GoHighLevel's pipeline builder. Each pipeline stage becomes a GoHighLevel stage with its probability weight. We document the stage order and probability values from FunnelMaker so that the GoHighLevel pipeline mirrors the original deal velocity assumptions.
FunnelMaker
Activity (calls, emails, tasks, notes)
HighLevel
Activity / Conversation
1:1FunnelMaker activity records (calls, emails, tasks, notes) tied to contacts migrate as GoHighLevel Activities and Conversations. Call metadata (duration, timestamp, owner) migrates as an activity record; audio files and transcription text do not migrate due to FunnelMaker's binary storage. Email body content migrates as a conversation note attached to the Contact.
FunnelMaker
Workflow
HighLevel
Workflow (documented for rebuild)
lossyFunnelMaker Workflows are automation rules with trigger conditions and action sequences that cannot be exported programmatically. We document each workflow during discovery—trigger type, conditions, time delays, and all actions—and deliver a written inventory mapping each step to a GoHighLevel Workflow equivalent. The customer rebuilds the workflow in GoHighLevel using this document; we do not execute the automation logic during migration.
FunnelMaker
Custom Object
HighLevel
Custom Object
1:1FunnelMaker supports unlimited user-defined fields and custom objects. We inspect the custom object schema during discovery, map field types to GoHighLevel field types (text, number, date, dropdown, checkbox), pre-create the destination schema in GoHighLevel before import, and migrate all associated records with their custom field values intact.
FunnelMaker
Drip Campaign
HighLevel
Workflow (documented for rebuild)
lossyFunnelMaker drip campaigns are email sequences tied to contact segments. We document the campaign structure including step timing, associated contact lists, and email content during discovery. The customer rebuilds drip sequences as GoHighLevel Workflows or email templates using this written reference; we do not migrate drip logic as executable code.
FunnelMaker
Tag / Group
HighLevel
Tag / Group
1:1FunnelMaker Tags and Groups that segment contacts into lists map to GoHighLevel Tags. Tag assignments on contacts migrate as GoHighLevel contact tags, preserving segmentation logic for lists and campaigns.
FunnelMaker
Lead Score
HighLevel
Lead Score (custom numeric field)
lossyFunnelMaker lead scores calculated from customizable rules migrate as a numeric custom field on the GoHighLevel Contact. The scoring rules themselves are documented as a written reference for the customer to rebuild as GoHighLevel automation triggers if needed.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
FunnelMaker gotchas
Contact tier limits are hard caps, not soft limits
No publicly documented API for direct export
Workflow and drip campaign migration requires manual sequencing
Built-in phone features do not export call recordings or transcription text
HighLevel gotchas
Sub-account architecture creates isolated data silos per client
Usage-based telecom and AI costs are not in the subscription price
Workflows have no native equivalent in most destination CRMs
API rate limits cap bulk migration throughput at 100 requests per 10 seconds per sub-account
White-label configuration and branding assets do not export via API
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and export extraction
We audit the FunnelMaker account for contacts, companies, opportunities, pipelines, custom fields, activities, and workflows. Because FunnelMaker has no API, we use in-product CSV exports supplemented by manual data pulls where exports are incomplete. We document the FunnelMaker tier and contact count to identify any ceiling risk. We inventory every active workflow and drip campaign with trigger conditions, actions, and step order for the automation handoff document.
Schema design and lookup reconciliation
We design the GoHighLevel destination schema: custom fields created on Contact, Company, and Opportunity objects to match FunnelMaker's user-defined fields; pipeline stages configured with names, probabilities, and step order mirroring FunnelMaker's pipeline builder. Because CSV exports do not preserve foreign-key relationships, we run the lookup reconciliation step here—matching contacts to companies by email domain and company name, linking opportunities to their pipeline by stage name, and attaching activities to contacts by contact ID—so that every record enters GoHighLevel with the correct lookup populated.
Test migration and reconciliation
We run a test migration into a GoHighLevel sub-account or sandbox using production-like data volume. The customer reviews 25-50 randomly sampled records against the FunnelMaker source, confirms that custom field values are on the correct object, and signs off on the pipeline stage mapping before production migration begins. Any mapping corrections happen at this stage, not in production.
Owner and user mapping
We extract every distinct FunnelMaker user referenced on Contact, Company, Opportunity, and Activity records and match by email against the GoHighLevel destination's user table. Any FunnelMaker owner without a matching GoHighLevel user is held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies (first, as other objects reference them), Contacts (with company lookup resolved), Opportunities (with pipeline stage and owner resolved), Activity history (calls, emails, tasks, notes tied to contacts via the reconciliation map). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. We respect GoHighLevel's API rate limits (100 requests per 10 seconds, 200,000 per day) using batch chunking and exponential backoff.
Cutover, validation, and workflow handoff
We freeze FunnelMaker writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable GoHighLevel as the system of record. We deliver the workflow and drip campaign inventory document to the customer's admin team with step-by-step GoHighLevel Workflow equivalents. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild FunnelMaker workflows as GoHighLevel workflows inside the migration scope; that is a separate rebuild engagement.
