Overview
Moving from Genoo to Nutshell is a migration from a marketing-automation-first tool with a thin CRM layer to a sales-CRM-first platform with marketing add-ons. Genoo has no publicly documented bulk export API, which means every migration begins with manual scoped exports from the platform UI and relies on email address matching to reconstruct Lead-to-Campaign and Contact-to-Account relationships. We do not migrate landing page blobs, HTML email templates, or calculated lead scores because Genoo exposes these as platform-rendered assets rather than structured data. We do not migrate Zapier workflows, drip sequences, or marketing automation rules; we deliver a written inventory of every active campaign and drip program for the customer to rebuild in Nutshell Campaigns or a dedicated marketing tool. Nutshell's per-user pricing model ($13-$79/user/month) is more predictable than Genoo's per-feature model ($199+/feature/month) for teams that grow beyond a single use case.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Genoo object lands in Nutshell, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Genoo
Lead
Nutshell
Contact
1:1Genoo Leads map to Nutshell Contacts. We use email address as the dedupe key during import. Genoo Lead fields (first_name, last_name, email, phone, company, website, source) map to standard Nutshell Contact fields. Any custom Lead properties in Genoo map to Nutshell custom Contact fields that we pre-create in the destination account before import.
Genoo
Contact
Nutshell
Contact
1:1Genoo Contacts from landing page captures and imported lists map to Nutshell Contacts using email as the dedupe key. Name, email, phone, and custom properties migrate directly. Where the destination Nutshell account uses a unified Contact model (rather than separate Lead and Contact objects), all Genoo records land in the Contact object with their original record type preserved in a custom field for reporting.
Genoo
Account/Company
Nutshell
Account
1:1Genoo Account records link to Leads and Contacts in Genoo and map to Nutshell Accounts. Account name, website, industry, and phone migrate directly. The Account object in Nutshell must be created before Contact import so that the Account lookup is satisfied at the moment of Contact insert. We resolve the Account-Contact relationship by matching the email domain extracted from the Contact's email address against the Account's website domain.
Genoo
Campaign
Nutshell
Campaign
1:1Genoo Campaigns (drip programs and email nurture sequences) map to Nutshell Campaigns. Campaign name, status, start_date, and end_date migrate directly. Campaign membership (which Leads entered which Campaigns) migrates to Nutshell Campaign Members linked by email address match against the imported Contact records. Genoo's drip program steps do not migrate as automation; we document each Campaign's step structure and recommended Nutshell automation equivalent.
Genoo
Event/Webinar Registration
Nutshell
Activity
1:1Event registrations in Genoo are stored as Activity-type records linked to Leads. We import registration data (event name, registration date, status) as Nutshell Activities attached to the corresponding Contact record. Post-event attendance and session data similarly migrate as Activity records with a custom event_type field. We cannot migrate the event platform's native attendance records (Zoom, GoToWebinar, etc.) if those were not also stored in Genoo.
Genoo
Landing Page / Microsite
Nutshell
Not migrated
lossyGenoo landing pages and microsites are stored as HTML and template blobs with no structured field extraction documented. We extract the page URL and form field list as a manifest of pages requiring rebuild in the destination CMS or marketing tool. Nutshell provides embeddable web forms but does not include a landing page builder; teams typically rebuild Genoo pages in a separate landing page tool or in Nutshell's form embed feature. We deliver a written page inventory with the URL, form fields, and any associated thank-you page URLs.
Genoo
Email Template
Nutshell
Not migrated
lossyGenoo email templates are HTML-based with platform-specific merge tags and styling. Modern email builders use drag-and-drop blocks that do not map cleanly to raw HTML templates, and Genoo does not expose a structured template export. We extract the template subject line and a plain-text body as a reference document for the customer's admin to recreate in Nutshell Campaigns or a dedicated email marketing tool. HTML template bodies are preserved as text notes in the template manifest but not imported as active templates.
Genoo
Lead Scoring Record
Nutshell
Not migrated
lossyGenoo lead scores are calculated values generated by the platform's behavioral scoring engine. These scores are displayed in the Genoo UI but are not included in any export format, and the scoring rule weights and demographic factors cannot be extracted. We do not migrate lead scores. During discovery we document the scoring configuration (demographic weights, behavioral thresholds, score tiers) and advise the customer to replicate the model using Nutshell's built-in lead scoring or a third-party scoring add-on. We preserve any numerical score stored as a custom field on the Lead record if that data appears in the export.
Genoo
Content Library Asset
Nutshell
Not migrated
lossyThe Genoo content library stores images, PDFs, and campaign files. Genoo provides no bulk file download endpoint or API for assets. We do not migrate binary assets automatically. We generate a manifest of all referenced content library URLs during discovery and instruct the customer to download files manually from the Genoo UI or via a scripted browser session before the account is closed. Assets referenced in email templates that are not pre-downloaded will result in broken images in any downstream email tool.

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.
Genoo gotchas
No public bulk export API documented
Per-feature pricing model inflates costs during migration scoping
Lead scores are platform-native and not exportable
Content library assets require manual download before account closure
CRM sync via Zapier only for non-Salesforce destinations
Nutshell gotchas
Contact tier limits enforced on import
No bulk API endpoint requires paginated extraction
Email sequences not exportable via API
Foundation plan disables key sales features
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and export coordination
We audit the Genoo account across all active features (lead capture, drip campaigns, event marketing, landing pages, content library), custom properties, and record volumes. We coordinate with the customer to run scoped manual exports from Genoo's UI: Leads, Campaign members, Form data, and Account records as separate CSV batches. We document the Campaign step structure (email order, delays, triggers) as a written automation inventory for rebuild in Nutshell. We flag any Genoo feature that will need to be activated solely for migration extraction purposes so the customer can minimize the billing impact.
Relationship reconstruction and transformation
We reconstruct Lead-to-Campaign membership by joining the Campaign members export against the Leads export using email address as the join key. We resolve Contact-to-Account relationships by matching email domain against Account website. We split the unified Genoo Lead/Contact export into Nutshell's Contact model, apply any custom field mappings, and generate a Contact import file ready for Nutshell's data import tool. We create a custom campaign_type field on Nutshell Campaigns to distinguish drip programs from event campaigns.
Schema pre-creation in Nutshell
Before any data import, we pre-create all custom fields in Nutshell that correspond to Genoo custom properties not present in Nutshell's standard Contact and Account field set. We configure the Nutshell pipeline with stages that most closely match the customer's existing Genoo sales process, if any is documented. We set up Nutshell Campaigns with the names and statuses from Genoo. We validate the destination schema in Nutshell before production import begins.
Account and Contact import with deduplication
We run Account import first (from Genoo Company records), then Contact import with Account lookup resolution and email-based deduplication. Any Contact without a matching Account is created with the company name stored on the Contact record for manual Account assignment post-import. We run a reconciliation report comparing the number of Genoo Leads exported against the number of Nutshell Contacts imported and flag any gaps for the customer's review before proceeding to Campaign import.
Campaign and Campaign Member migration
We import Nutshell Campaigns with name, status, and date fields. We then import Campaign Members by matching email addresses against the imported Nutshell Contacts and linking each member to the corresponding Campaign record. Campaign membership with no matching Contact in Nutshell is held in a deferred queue; the customer decides whether to create placeholder Contacts for these members or exclude them from the migration. We deliver a Campaign membership count report for each Campaign to confirm all member links were resolved.
Activity import and cutover handoff
Event registration and attendance data from Genoo migrates as Nutshell Activities linked to the corresponding Contact records. We deliver the automation inventory document listing every Genoo drip program, its step structure, and a recommended Nutshell Campaigns equivalent. We deliver the landing page manifest and the email template subject-and-body reference document. We do not migrate Zapier workflows, drip sequences, or marketing automation rules. We freeze Genoo writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, and hand off to the customer with a reconciliation report and a one-week hypercare window for data issues.
