Overview
Moving from RollWorks Account-Based Platform to GoHighLevel is a cross-category migration from an account-based advertising and orchestration layer into a full-stack agency CRM. RollWorks organizes around Account Lists, Journey Stages, and advertising engagement data synced to Salesforce; GoHighLevel uses Contacts, Pipelines, and Opportunities with built-in SMS, email, and scheduling. We map RollWorks Account List membership to GoHighLevel Companies and Contacts, translate Journey Stage field values into GoHighLevel pipeline stages or contact custom fields, and preserve the AdRoll custom object metrics (impressions, clicks, spend, page views) as GoHighLevel custom fields. Account Spike signals and intent scores migrate as numeric custom fields on the contact record. RollWorks Workflows, Journey Events, and advertising campaign configuration do not migrate as automation; we extract them separately and deliver a written inventory for your admin to rebuild in GoHighLevel's automation builder. Advertising creative assets and live campaign data do not migrate.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a RollWorks Account-Based Platform 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.
RollWorks Account-Based Platform
Account List
HighLevel
Company + Contact
1:manyRollWorks Account Lists are collections of target company domains. We extract the full list membership and split each entry into a GoHighLevel Company record (domain, company name, website) and one or more Contact records (name, email, phone, title). The Account List name and membership date migrate as a custom field on each Company. Account Group membership is preserved as a multi-select custom field on the Company. Website-based matching in RollWorks uses the Salesforce Website field; we replicate this logic in GoHighLevel by normalizing the domain from the Account List against the Company website field.
RollWorks Account-Based Platform
Account Group
HighLevel
Folder or Tag
lossyRollWorks Account Groups are collections of Account Lists used to segment campaigns and reporting. GoHighLevel does not have a native Account Group equivalent. We map each Account Group to a GoHighLevel Folder on the Company record or to a Contact Tag that segments the related contacts. The customer chooses the segmentation strategy during scoping.
RollWorks Account-Based Platform
Journey Stage
HighLevel
Pipeline Stage or Contact Custom Field
lossyRollWorks Journey Stages are derived from Salesforce field values synced through the CRM integration. Each Journey Stage name and its associated field value are extracted and mapped to either a GoHighLevel Pipeline Stage (if the customer wants stage-based pipeline visibility) or a contact-level custom field (if they prefer stage as a contact property). We preserve the original stage name as a custom field value for audit continuity.
RollWorks Account-Based Platform
AdRoll Aggregated Account Data (Custom Salesforce Object)
HighLevel
Company Custom Field or Opportunity Custom Field
1:1RollWorks writes aggregated engagement metrics to a custom Salesforce object linked to the Account record. Fields include keyword intent data, advertising data (spend, impressions, clicks, conversions), and engagement data (page views, unique visitors). We map these to GoHighLevel Company custom fields using the same field names and data types. If the customer uses Opportunities in GoHighLevel, advertising data can also land on Opportunity custom fields tied to the related account. This object is absent in most RollWorks-to-GHL migrations because the object only exists if the customer had a Salesforce sync configured; we audit for it during scoping.
RollWorks Account-Based Platform
AdRoll Aggregated Contact/Lead Data (Custom Salesforce Object)
HighLevel
Contact Custom Field
1:1RollWorks writes contact-level advertising and engagement data to a custom Salesforce object linked to Contact and Lead records. Fields include advertising data (spend, impressions, clicks, conversions) and engagement data (page views). We map these to GoHighLevel Contact custom fields with equivalent numeric and currency types. Note that GoHighLevel uses a combined Contact model rather than separating Leads from Contacts; we create a single contact record with a lead-status custom field for any records that originated as Salesforce Leads.
RollWorks Account-Based Platform
Contact / Hot Contact
HighLevel
Contact
1:1RollWorks Hot Contacts (deanonymized web visitors pushed to CRM as leads or contacts via workflow) are extracted from the connected Salesforce or HubSpot. We map them to GoHighLevel Contacts with the original engagement source (web visitor, advertising click, etc.) stored as a custom field. Note: RollWorks cannot associate Lead object activity to Accounts in Journey Events. Any Lead records without an Account association in Salesforce should be flagged during scoping; we recommend a Lead-to-Contact audit before migration.
RollWorks Account-Based Platform
Sales Insights / Account Spike Signals
HighLevel
Contact Custom Field (numeric)
1:1RollWorks Sales Insights surfaces accounts spiking with engagement and predicts x2 likelihood of becoming opportunities. The signal scores are written to Salesforce or HubSpot widgets. We map these to GoHighLevel Contact custom fields of numeric type, preserving the score and signal date. Because GoHighLevel has no native ABM scoring model, these fields give the customer's team a basis for prioritization without a dedicated ABM tool.
RollWorks Account-Based Platform
Workflow Definitions
HighLevel
Workflow Documentation (no migration)
lossyRollWorks Workflows (Triggers and Actions) are defined in the AdRoll ABM orchestration layer, not in the connected CRM. We do not migrate workflows as code. We perform a dedicated Workflow extraction pass via the NextRoll API, capturing every active workflow's trigger conditions, filter logic, and action sequence. We deliver a written inventory of each workflow with its recommended GoHighLevel Automation equivalent (trigger type, conditions, actions). The customer's admin rebuilds the automations in GoHighLevel's workflow builder using the inventory as a specification.
RollWorks Account-Based Platform
Audience Segment
HighLevel
Smart List or Tag
lossyRollWorks Audience Segments are built from RollWorks' own data and CRM field combinations with limited filter capabilities. We extract the segmentation rules (filter criteria, inclusion/exclusion logic) and document them as a written specification. In GoHighLevel, equivalent segmentation is rebuilt using Smart Lists (filter-based contact groups) or Tags applied to contact records. The segmentation rules do not auto-migrate because filter operators differ between platforms.

RollWorks Account-Based Platform gotchas
CRM sync limited to standard Salesforce objects
Lead-to-Account association is not supported
Workflow definitions live outside the CRM
Ad serving costs use dynamic CPM, not CPC or CPA
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

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Scoping and Salesforce schema audit
We audit the customer's RollWorks environment: Account List count and size, Account Group structure, Journey Stage definitions, Workflow inventory, and the presence of the AdRoll custom Salesforce object. We simultaneously audit the connected Salesforce or HubSpot instance to identify which data is accessible via API versus locked in the orchestration layer. If the Salesforce sync was not configured or the custom object was not enabled, we document which data will be unavailable for migration and adjust scope before work begins.
Schema design and custom field creation in GoHighLevel
We design the GoHighLevel schema to receive RollWorks data. This includes creating Company custom fields for Account List membership, Account Group membership, and AdRoll account-level metrics (spend, impressions, clicks, conversions, page views, intent scores). We create Contact custom fields for AdRoll contact-level metrics, Account Spike scores, and original engagement source. Pipeline stages are configured to match Journey Stage names if the customer opts for pipeline-based stage tracking. All fields are deployed to a GoHighLevel sub-account or sandbox environment for validation before production migration.
Account List extraction and Company-Contact split
We extract the full Account List membership via the NextRoll API, preserving list name, group name, account domain, and date added. Each account record is split into a GoHighLevel Company (using domain as the dedupe key) and one or more Contact records. We apply domain normalization to prevent the same duplication pattern that RollWorks exhibits when multiple Salesforce Accounts share a website. Any duplicate GoHighLevel Companies identified during extraction are flagged for customer resolution before import.
Engagement data and signal migration
If the AdRoll custom Salesforce object is present in the connected Salesforce, we extract aggregated account-level and contact-level advertising and engagement metrics (spend, impressions, clicks, conversions, page views, keyword intent). These are mapped to GoHighLevel Company and Contact custom fields with equivalent data types. Account Spike scores migrate as numeric custom fields on the relevant Contact. Journey Stage values from Salesforce are extracted and mapped to the configured GoHighLevel pipeline stage or contact custom field.
Workflow and Journey Event documentation pass
We perform a dedicated extraction of all active RollWorks Workflow definitions (Triggers, Actions, Filters) via the NextRoll API. We also document the Journey Event configuration (event sources, associated Journey Stages, and filter logic). We do not build GoHighLevel automations during this pass. The output is a written workflow inventory with step-by-step trigger conditions, filter logic, and action sequences mapped to GoHighLevel automation equivalents. This document is delivered to the customer as a rebuild specification for their admin.
Production migration and cutover
We migrate data into GoHighLevel production in dependency order: Companies first (as the parent record), then Contacts (with Company association resolved via domain lookup), then custom field values for account metrics and signals. We run a reconciliation pass comparing GoHighLevel record counts against the RollWorks extract totals. The customer spot-checks 20-30 records for accuracy. We freeze RollWorks writes during cutover and run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window. We deliver the workflow inventory document and the advertising campaign configuration document as the final handoff artifacts.
