Clean up duplicate and stale CRM records

Find duplicates, bounced contacts and dead accounts, and fix them in batches.

How do you clean up your CRM?

To clean up your CRM, set a Loop in Maito to run monthly. It scans for duplicate records, contacts who have left and accounts that look dead, lists them in a spreadsheet with the reason for each, and merges or archives only the batches you approve.

How it's done today

Nobody owns CRM hygiene until a report looks wrong.

What Maito does

  1. Find likely duplicates
  2. Find contacts that left the company
  3. Propose merges and updates in a list

Example

Loop run: First Monday · Monthly CRM cleanup

Maito APP 9:00 AM

October cleanup: 14 likely duplicates and 22 contacts who've left. Nothing has changed in HubSpot. Duplicates: 'Acme Inc' and 'ACME Incorporated' share acme.example and hold open deals of $40k and $12k. 'Globex Corp' and 'Globex Corporation' are another pair. 12 more in the sheet. Left their company: Marcus is now at Hooli, per his LinkedIn. 21 more. Catch: 5 of the 22 are the only contact on an open deal, $118k in total. Archiving them would leave those deals with nobody to call, so I split them into a separate tab. Attached: crm-cleanup-oct.xlsx. Sources: HubSpot and public profiles.

@Maito approve the 14 merges and the 17 archives. I'll find new contacts for the other 5.

What it won't do

Merges are hard to undo in some CRMs, so Maito keeps them to what you approve. A change of job that isn't public won't be caught.
