How to Import Contacts
Punchey now offers a simple, guided workflow for importing your contact data, accessible directly from your system settings. This allows you to either upload a spreadsheet or manually enter your contacts line by line.
Where to Find It
-
Log in to your TattooPro dashboard.
-
Click the Settings tab on the left sidebar.
-
Under Software Setup, select Data Import.
-
Click Contacts Only next to "Upload Your Contacts Here."
This will launch the import module.
Import Options
You have two options for adding contact data:
Option 1: Upload from File
-
Click Upload data from file.
-
Acceptable formats:
.csv
and.tsv
. -
Your file should contain one row per contact.
-
The system will walk you through column-matching after upload, so your column headers do not need to be in a specific format.
-
You’ll be able to preview and clean up data before completing the import.
Option 2: Manual Entry
If you prefer, you can enter contact info manually using the table provided. Available fields include:
-
First Name, Last Name
-
Phone, Phone2, Phone3
-
Email, Email2, Email3
-
Company Name
-
Street, Street 2, City, State, Zip
Click Continue when you're ready to finalize your import.
Tips for a Smooth Import
-
Clean your spreadsheet before uploading: remove empty rows, verify consistent formatting (especially for phone numbers and emails).
-
Include as much info as possible, but only the first name or phone/email is required.
-
If you're importing more than a few hundred rows, split large files into smaller ones to ensure quick processing.
Re-Importing & Updates
If you upload contacts with emails or phone numbers already in your system, Punchey will attempt to match and update them—avoiding duplicate creation.
