Important: If no contacts (or an unexpectedly small number of contacts) were found, it's possible that you are either syncing from the wrong Google account, or you need to add contact to google contacts.

5. Choose whether to Skip or Overwrite clients who already exist in your account:

  • Skip: The import will skip this contact and no information will be updated.
  • Overwrite: Choose this option when you would like to overwrite the existing client with the new contact. 

Please Note: Existing clients are identified by their email address. 

6. Click Import.
The import begins. You may continue to work on other tasks during the import process.
