Pink PostCSV and Excel import/export with a Google Sheet template
Import prospects from CSV, clean and verified
Upload a CSV or Excel file, map each column to a Pink Post field or a custom field, and import. Pink Post removes duplicates, skips blocklisted emails and domains, and checks each address for valid syntax and a working MX record. You can export prospects and results back to CSV at any time.
Why it matters
Bring the list you already have, in minutes, and take your data with you any time.
Import .csv or .xlsx files with column mapping and custom fields. A ready-made CSV template and a Google Sheet template use the columns website, site_name, first_name, last_name, email, niche, dr, traffic, price, notes. Prospects, analytics, campaigns and templates can all be exported.

Under the hood
How it works
Column mapping
Pink Post guesses the mapping from headers (email, first name, website) and lets you change it. Unknown columns can become custom fields usable as placeholders.
Dedupe and blocklist
Existing prospects are not created twice, and anything on your blocklist is skipped.
Verification
Syntax and MX checks run on import; ZeroBounce or Hunter can be added with your own key.

|---|---|
| Formats | CSV, Excel; Google Sheets sync |
| Mapping | Auto-detected, editable, custom fields |
| Cleaning | Dedupe, blocklist, syntax + MX check |
