Overview
Genoo's data model is intentionally lean: Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Opportunities derived from CRM sync, Campaigns, and Events. There is no documented bulk export API, so all extraction begins from the platform's manual export UI, which separates Lead records, Campaign members, and Form submission data into distinct files without relational keys. We reconcile those files by email address and company name, build the Salesforce schema to absorb Genoo's simpler object graph, and push records through Salesforce's Bulk API 2.0. We do not migrate Workflow configurations, Lead scores, or Content Library assets. Landing page and email template HTML is extracted where available; the drag-and-drop visual blocks do not export cleanly and are documented for manual rebuild. Automation rules, drip sequences, and form builders are configuration artifacts that require rebuild in Salesforce Flow or Salesforce Marketing Cloud Account Engagement post-migration.
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 Genoo object lands in Salesforce Sales Cloud, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Genoo
Lead
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead
1:1Genoo Leads map directly to Salesforce Lead. Standard fields (FirstName, LastName, Email, Phone, Company, LeadSource) migrate from Genoo's Lead export file. Genoo's lead status values map to Salesforce Lead Status picklist values, and the source campaign attribution is preserved by linking the Lead to a Salesforce Campaign via a Campaign ID custom field. We validate email format and remove records with missing required fields before insertion.
Genoo
Contact
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact
1:1Genoo Contacts from landing page captures and imported lists map to Salesforce Contact. We extract name, email, phone, and any custom properties from the Contact export file. Since Genoo does not enforce a Lead-to-Contact conversion model, we treat all Genoo Contacts as Salesforce Contacts directly. If a Contact in Genoo shares an email with a Lead record we are also migrating, we deduplicate by preferring the more recently updated record and flagging the duplicate for admin review.
Genoo
Account
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account
1:1Genoo Account records map to Salesforce Account. The Account object in Genoo stores limited fields: company name, website, and industry. We use the company name as a deduplication key during import. Where the same company appears across multiple Contact records in Genoo, we create one Salesforce Account and link all Contacts to it. We derive the Account industry from Genoo's industry field where populated and leave it blank where absent.
Genoo
Opportunity
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity
1:1Opportunities are not a native first-class object in Genoo; they are derived from the CRM sync side where the destination CRM owns the Opportunity. We import the opportunity association data captured in Genoo's sync export — opportunity name, stage, amount, close date, and linked contact or account — as Salesforce Opportunity records with a custom sync_source__c field set to Genoo. If no opportunity data exists in Genoo (because the team relied on Salesforce directly), we note the Opportunity association as a post-migration admin task.
Genoo
Campaign
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Campaign
1:1Genoo Campaigns (drip programs and email nurture sequences) map to Salesforce Campaign. We import Campaign name, status, start and end dates, type, and associated program steps. Campaign membership — which Leads enrolled, when they enrolled, and their completion status — migrates as Salesforce CampaignMember records linked to the corresponding Salesforce Campaign. Engagement metrics such as opens and clicks from Genoo are not stored as structured data in the export and are not migratable; we document this gap for the customer's analytics team.
Genoo
Event / Webinar Registration
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task (custom event_type field)
1:1Event registrations in Genoo are stored as Activity-type records linked to Leads. We import registration data — event name, event date, registration status, and any registration notes — as Salesforce Task records with a custom field event_type__c set to Registration. Post-event attendance and session data from Genoo's event module do not have a direct Salesforce equivalent and are not migrated; we document the event configuration separately for the customer's admin to rebuild as Salesforce Events or a connected event platform.
Genoo
Landing Page / Microsite
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Long Text Area field on Campaign or ContentDocument
lossyGenoo landing pages and microsites are stored as HTML or template blobs with associated form field configurations. We extract page content, form field names, and thank-you page redirect URLs as structured data. The full rendering assets do not map to any standard Salesforce object. We preserve HTML content in a custom Long Text Area field on the related Salesforce Campaign record for manual review. Forms embedded within landing pages are documented for Salesforce Web-to-Lead configuration rebuild.
Genoo
Email Template
Salesforce Sales Cloud
ContentNote or Custom Text Field
lossyGenoo email templates are HTML-based. We extract the template body, subject line, and inline CSS styling from the export. Drag-and-drop visual builder blocks used in Genoo templates do not export as clean HTML and cannot be reconstructed automatically. We extract what is available as structured fields and flag the visual block components that require manual rebuild in Salesforce Lightning Email Template builder or a third-party email design tool.
Genoo
Workflow / Automation Configuration
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Written inventory document (no Salesforce equivalent)
1:1Genoo workflow configurations and automation rules are stored as internal database entries rather than structured exportable records. We do not migrate automation configurations as code because no equivalent automation model exists in Salesforce Sales Cloud and the configurations cannot be extracted from Genoo's platform. We document every active workflow, trigger, condition, and action during the discovery phase and deliver a written automation inventory with recommended Salesforce Flow equivalents for the customer's admin to rebuild post-migration.
Genoo
Lead Scoring Record
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Written scoring model document (no Salesforce equivalent)
1:1Genoo calculates lead scores dynamically in its scoring engine and displays them in the UI. The calculated scores and the underlying scoring rules and weighting factors are not included in any Genoo export format. We do not migrate lead scores because the scoring model cannot be extracted. We document the scoring configuration during discovery and provide a written model description that the customer's Salesforce admin can use to configure Salesforce native lead scoring or Pardot scoring post-migration.
Genoo
Owner
Salesforce Sales Cloud
User
1:1Genoo Owners referenced on Lead, Contact, and Campaign records are reconciled against Salesforce User records by email address match. Any Genoo Owner without a corresponding Salesforce User is held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record migration begins. Owner mapping is validated before the Lead migration phase starts because OwnerId is a required field on most Salesforce standard objects.
Genoo
Content Library Asset
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Manual download manifest (no Salesforce automatic migration)
1:1Genoo's content library stores images, PDFs, and campaign files. The platform exposes no bulk file export API or download endpoint. We do not migrate binary assets automatically. We generate a manifest CSV listing every content library item with its URL and file type. The customer downloads files manually from Genoo's UI before the account is closed. We provide the manifest so the customer can re-upload assets to Salesforce Files, a connected CMS, or a cloud storage bucket post-migration.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and scoping
We audit the source Genoo portal for record counts and data freshness across Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Campaigns, and Event registrations. We review the number of separate export batches the portal requires given its row-count limits, check whether a Zapier or direct Salesforce sync is currently active and must be paused, and assess whether any Genoo Automation or Zapier workflows create records in Salesforce that will compete with our migration load. The discovery output is a written migration scope document, a record-count estimate by object, and a Salesforce edition recommendation based on the team's seat count and feature requirements.
Schema design in Salesforce
We design the destination Salesforce schema to absorb Genoo's simpler object graph. This includes provisioning any required custom fields on Lead, Contact, Account, and Opportunity, creating Campaign Record Types for different Genoo campaign types, and configuring Salesforce Sales Processes to match the deal stages present in the source data. We also pre-create the custom event_type__c field on Task for event registration imports and the sync_source__c field on Opportunity for data sourced from Genoo's CRM sync. We coordinate with the customer's Salesforce admin to temporarily disable validation rules and extend field-level security for the migration user before data load begins.
Sequenced data extraction from Genoo UI
We extract data from Genoo's manual export UI in batches organized by record type. The extraction order is: Leads first, then Contacts, then Accounts, then Campaigns and Campaign members separately, then Event registrations. We deduplicate across export batches using email address as the primary join key and company name as a secondary resolver for Account matching. We reconstruct the Lead-to-Campaign association by linking Campaign member records back to the Lead email in the main Lead export. We validate total record counts per object before beginning the transformation phase.
Transformation and relationship reconciliation
We transform the exported Genoo data into Salesforce-compatible CSV and JSON formats. Contacts are matched to Accounts by company name and domain to avoid duplicate Account creation. Campaign member records are linked to their parent Salesforce Campaign by name match. Event registrations are converted to Task records with event_type__c set to Registration. We strip any records that fail validation (missing email, malformed date fields) and route them to a correction queue for the customer to address before the next migration run. We also generate the content library asset manifest CSV at this stage.
Bulk API 2.0 load into Salesforce in dependency order
We load records into Salesforce using the Bulk API 2.0 in dependency order: Accounts first (because Contacts require an AccountId), then Leads and Contacts, then Campaigns and CampaignMembers, then Opportunities, then Event registrations as Tasks. OwnerId references are resolved by email match against the Salesforce User table. We apply exponential backoff and chunking for batches exceeding Salesforce's per-batch row limit. Activity history (Call, Email, Meeting tasks) is loaded last with parent-record WhoId and WhatId references resolved at insert time. Each phase produces a reconciliation report comparing records inserted to records expected before the next phase starts.
Validation and cutover
We validate the loaded data by comparing record counts and spot-checking field values against the source exports. The customer's RevOps lead reviews 25-50 randomly sampled records and signs off on the Sandbox or staging load before production migration begins. We run a final delta migration to capture any records modified during the scoping and testing window, disable write access to Genoo, and enable Salesforce as the system of record. We deliver the automation inventory and lead scoring model documentation to the customer's admin team for post-migration rebuild.
Post-migration support window
We provide a one-week hypercare window after cutover during which we resolve any data reconciliation issues raised by the customer's sales or marketing team. This includes fixing orphaned Contact-to-Account links, re-processing failed batches, and correcting any Salesforce validation rule rejections that were not caught in the pre-load configuration step. We do not rebuild Genoo automations as Salesforce Flow within the migration scope; that work is documented in the automation inventory and falls outside standard migration scope as a separate engagement.
