Export and import options vary by plan, permissions and product version. Check the platform’s current help documentation if a menu or format differs. Use only contact data you are authorized to process; an extracted address is not proof of marketing consent.

Close CRM uses workflows to automate repetitive sales tasks: sending emails, creating tasks, updating lead statuses and triggering actions based on lead behavior. Leads processed by these automations contain email addresses tied to specific sales stages.

Working with the Results

Sequence performance analysis

Extract emails from contacts who completed sequences with specific outcomes (replied, booked a meeting, no response). Use for external analysis.

Import into marketing tools

Import automation-enrolled contact emails into Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign or another platform for nurture campaigns.

Multi-channel follow-up

Use automation-targeted contact lists for outreach through channels not supported in Close CRM.

Verify addresses

Contacts in active sales sequences are typically recent and valid. Older leads may need verification. See Best email verification services.

Things to Know

Contact data is not preserved

Email Extractor outputs email addresses only. Names, companies, lead statuses, sequence stages, call logs and other Close CRM fields are not carried over.

Leads vs. contacts

In Close CRM, a Lead is a company that contains one or more Contacts. Exports may include multiple email addresses per lead.
