Combine Lead Sources
Lead sources tell you where each inquiry came from โ Google, The Knot, Instagram, a referral, and so on. Over time, sources can split into too many small buckets that clutter your reports.
Combine Lead Sources lets you group similar sources together so your reports stay clean and easy to read.
๐ก Example:
Leads from โGoogle Adsโ and โGoogleโ show up separately. You can combine them into a single bucket called Google.
๐ Where to Find It
Settings โ Leads
Scroll down to the Combine Lead Sources section.
๐ง When to Use This
Use Combine Lead Sources when:
- You see multiple sources that mean the same thing but show separately
- You want cleaner, simpler reporting
- Your source list has grown messy over time
You donโt need it if your sources already look the way you want.
โ๏ธ How It Works
Each rule has two parts:
| When source is | Save as |
|---|---|
| Google Ads | |
| Wedding Wire | WeddingWire |
| Instagram DM |
For every new lead:
- We check your rules
- If thereโs a match, we rename the source using Save as
โ ๏ธ Important:
Rules only apply to new leads going forward
Existing leads stay the same unless you update them manually or press Apply Rules To Existing Leads (more on this below)
โ Adding a Rule
- Go to Settings โ Leads
- Find Combine Lead Sources
-
Select a value in When source is
(Only sources that exist in your data will show)
-
Enter a name in Save as
(Example: Google)
- Click Add Rule
โ Your rule is live immediately
๐ Applying Rules to Existing Leads
By default, rules only affect new leads. To update past leads:
- Click Apply to existing leads (top right of the table)
- Review the popup
- Click Apply now
- Wait for processing (usually under a minute)
Your reports will update automatically when finished.
๐ก You can repeat this anytime if you add new rules later.
โ Removing a Rule
- Find the rule
- Click Remove
โ ๏ธ Removing a rule does NOT undo past changes automatically
To revert leads back:
- Click Apply to existing leads again
