Promoting Single or Multiple Prospects

You can promote a single prospect or multiple contacts, using the Prospects More Info view or the views in the List Management screen. You can promote multiple prospects using the Promote Many button in some views in the List Management screen. This action promotes any prospects for which Data Quality does not find any matches.

Caution: Promotion is only intended for promoting relatively small numbers of prospects at one time (fewer than 100). If you select more prospects, then the process could take many minutes to complete. To see the promotion result, you must query repeatedly until the process completes.

Prospects that have at least one matching contact are not promoted when you click Promote Many. If you do not enable Data Quality, then selected prospects are promoted to contacts.

When a prospect is promoted, a contact record is created with matching field information. The prospect remains in the list of prospects, but is flagged as being promoted.
