Sometimes, when multiple buyer lists are imported into your Outreach subscription the names of a company are slightly different (e.g. Company Name and Company Name LLC.) Merging companies allows you to have a single source of truth for a company and consolidate contacts into one record. If you have more than two versions of the same company, repeat this process for each duplicate. 

Note: You can only merge companies when they aren't listed in the same project. Review the Deal History column in the Companies tab. 
 

To merge company records:

  1   Within the Companies tab, choose two companies via checkbox.

  2   Select Merge Companies.

  3   Follow the prompts.

• An blue radio button indicates a selected item
• Outreach ID: It's okay to choose this arbitrarily

  4   Click Continue to preview the new record.

  5   Click Merge.

• Upon a successful merge, pick Done to close the panel
• If you receive a 'Merge failed' alert, the companies you are trying to merge share one or more projects. Correct the issue and try again as needed
