Overview
Moving from Wired Plus to Salesforce is a structural migration from a UK-built unified marketing CRM into an enterprise-scale CRM platform. Wired Plus stores contacts with custom field schemas and tracks pipeline stages per contact; Salesforce separates the data model into Lead, Contact, Account, and Opportunity objects with explicit relationships. We resolve the custom field schema during scoping by querying the Wired Plus API for internal field IDs before building the import mapping, preventing the common issue of field labels drifting between exports. Subscription consent flags require explicit extraction from the opt_in and source fields since default Wired Plus CSV exports omit them. Automation workflows, landing page HTML, and form handlers do not migrate as code; we deliver a written inventory of every active workflow and landing page configuration for the customer's admin to rebuild in Salesforce. Campaign send history and performance metrics migrate to Salesforce Campaign records.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Wired Plus 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.
Wired Plus
Contact
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead or Contact (split by lifecycle stage)
1:manyWired Plus contacts migrate to Salesforce Lead if the contact is pre-qualified (no active deal association and lifecycle status indicating a marketing-qualified stage), and to Salesforce Contact if the contact has an associated deal or represents a confirmed customer. We query the Wired Plus lifecycle_stage or equivalent status field during extraction and apply the split rule at migration time. The original Wired Plus consent flags (opt_in, source) are preserved in a custom field wp_original_consent__c on both Lead and Contact for GDPR documentation.
Wired Plus
Company
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account
1:1Wired Plus company records map directly to Salesforce Account. The company domain or website field becomes the Account's Website field and serves as the dedupe key during import. Account is created before any Contact import so that the AccountId Lookup is satisfied at the moment of Contact insert.
Wired Plus
Deal
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity
1:1Wired Plus Deals map to Salesforce Opportunity. The Wired Plus deal stage maps to Salesforce StageName using a stage-mapping table we build during scoping, where each source stage name is matched to a destination stage in the Salesforce Sales Process. Closed-Lost and Closed-Won deal states map to the corresponding Salesforce stage entries. Amount, expected close date, and deal owner transfer directly.
Wired Plus
Pipeline Stage
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Sales Process + Stage
lossyWired Plus pipeline stages are defined per account. We extract the full stage sequence, probability values, and ordering during scoping and configure a Salesforce Sales Process that mirrors the source pipeline. Each stage maps to a Salesforce StageName value. Stages with no equivalent in Salesforce are flagged in the mapping document and the customer's admin chooses the closest replacement during sign-off.
Wired Plus
Campaign
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Campaign
1:1Wired Plus campaigns (email send history, open rates, click data) migrate to Salesforce Campaign records. Campaign name, status, type, and start/end dates transfer directly. Open rate, click rate, and send volume migrate as custom fields on the Salesforce Campaign record since Salesforce Campaign Member statistics are computed from CampaignMember records rather than stored as fields. Automated workflow triggers export as metadata only.
Wired Plus
Tag
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Multi-Select Picklist or Topic
lossyWired Plus tags (flat string labels on contacts and companies) migrate to Salesforce multi-select picklist fields on Contact and Account. The customer chooses the tag strategy during scoping: direct multi-select picklist migration or Salesforce Topics with TopicAssignment for broader cross-object use. Tag name uniqueness is enforced at migration time to prevent picklist value overflow.
Wired Plus
Custom Field (Contact)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Field (Contact or Lead)
1:1Wired Plus account-specific custom fields on contacts require API-based schema resolution before export. We fetch the field schema via the Wired Plus API during scoping to map field labels to internal field IDs, then create matching Salesforce custom fields (with __c suffix) before migration. Field types (text, date, number, picklist) map to equivalent Salesforce field types. Picklist values migrate as Salesforce picklist options. Labels that changed between the export and the scoping audit are flagged for manual correction.
Wired Plus
Custom Field (Deal)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Field (Opportunity)
1:1Custom fields on Wired Plus deals migrate to Salesforce custom fields on Opportunity. We follow the same API-based schema resolution process as for contacts. Deal-level custom field types that have no Salesforce equivalent (for example, multi-select formats that exceed picklist limits) are flagged in the mapping document with a recommended configuration approach.
Wired Plus
Landing Page
Salesforce Sales Cloud
ContentDocument (assets) + mapping document
1:1Wired Plus landing pages export as HTML content and asset URLs. We deliver the exported HTML and asset archive to the customer. Salesforce Sales Cloud has no native landing page builder; the customer's marketing team rebuilds pages in their chosen platform (Experience Cloud, Marketo, or a third-party landing page tool). We flag any pages with embedded forms that require a new form handler ID.
Wired Plus
Form
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Web-to-Lead or Experience Cloud Form
1:1Wired Plus forms capture subscriber data and link to campaigns or landing pages. We export field names, form configurations, and submission logs. Form-to-field mappings must be rebuilt at the destination since form handler IDs are platform-specific. We deliver a form field inventory document to guide the rebuild in Salesforce Web-to-Lead or Experience Cloud.
Wired Plus
Automation Workflow
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Workflow inventory document (no code migration)
1:1Wired Plus automation workflows define trigger-action sequences including conditional branches and time delays. We export workflow definitions as structured metadata (JSON where the API supports it, or a manual walkthrough of the workflow builder). The trigger events, delay values, condition logic, and downstream actions are documented in a written inventory for the customer's admin to reconfigure in Salesforce Flow. We do not migrate workflows as executable code.
Wired Plus
Attachment
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Not migrated (not accessible via standard export)
1:1File attachments stored within Wired Plus records are not reliably accessible via the standard export interface. We recommend exporting attachments separately via direct download before migration begins. The customer can reattach files to Salesforce records post-migration or store them in Salesforce Files (ContentDocument) with a manual relinking step.

Migration approach
Discovery and Wired Plus API schema audit
We audit the source Wired Plus account across contacts, companies, deals, pipeline stages, campaigns, custom fields, automation workflows, and attachment volume. The critical step is fetching the full custom field schema via the Wired Plus API to capture internal field IDs and current labels. We reconcile the API schema against any existing CSV export files to identify label drift. We pair this with a Salesforce edition recommendation: Professional ($80/user) covers most migrations; Enterprise ($165/user) is required if the customer needs advanced Flow automation, custom reporting types, or Territory Management.
Consent flag extraction and GDPR compliance setup
We extract opt_in and source fields explicitly for every contact record, preserving the consent timestamp and source channel. We map consent values to Salesforce HasOptedOutOfEmail and create a custom wp_consent_record__c field storing the original consent date and source for GDPR documentation. This step prevents the common compliance gap where contacts land as active marketing contacts without documented consent.
Salesforce schema design and stage mapping
We design the destination Salesforce schema including custom fields (with __c API names matched to Wired Plus field IDs), Record Types (one per Wired Plus pipeline), Sales Processes (stage whitelist per Record Type), and page layouts. We build the stage-mapping table pairing each Wired Plus pipeline stage name and probability to a Salesforce StageName and StageProbability value. Schema is deployed to a Salesforce Sandbox via metadata API for validation before production migration begins.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a Salesforce Sandbox using production-like data volume. The customer's RevOps lead reconciles record counts (Contacts in, Leads in, Accounts in, Opportunities in), spot-checks 25-50 records against the Wired Plus source, and validates consent flag preservation. Any mapping corrections and custom field type adjustments happen in the Sandbox, not in production. This step also surfaces any validation rules that need to be relaxed before the production load.
Owner reconciliation and User provisioning
We extract every distinct Wired Plus deal owner and contact owner referenced in the migration scope and match by email against the Salesforce destination org's User table. Owners without a matching Salesforce User go to a reconciliation queue. The customer's Salesforce admin provisions any missing Users before record import resumes. OwnerId references must be resolved before Opportunity and Contact import can proceed.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Accounts (from Wired Plus Companies with domain deduping), Leads and Contacts (with consent flags and AccountId resolved), Opportunities (with AccountId, OwnerId, and RecordTypeId resolved and stage mapping applied), Campaigns (with custom performance fields), Tags (as multi-select picklists), then custom object records last if present. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. Attachments are flagged for manual re-upload post-migration.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze Wired Plus writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Salesforce as the system of record. We deliver the automation workflow inventory document and the landing page and form asset archive to the customer's admin team for rebuild in Salesforce Flow and Experience Cloud respectively. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild Wired Plus automation workflows as Salesforce Flow inside the migration scope.
