## What Are Companies?

Companies represent the organisations your contacts belong to. Linking contacts to companies lets you see the full relationship — all people at a company, their conversations, and any deals in progress.

## Creating a Company

1. Go to **Contacts → Companies** (or the **Companies** menu item in the sidebar).
2. Click **New Company**.
3. Enter the company name, website, industry, description, and any custom attributes.
4. Click **Save**.

## Linking Contacts to a Company

Open a contact profile and find the **Company** field. Search for the company and select it. A contact can belong to only one company.

Alternatively, open the company record and click **Add Contact** to link existing contacts in bulk.

## Company Profile

The company profile shows:

- **Details** — Name, website, industry, description, custom attributes.
- **Contacts** — All people linked to this company.
- **Conversations** — All conversations involving any linked contact.
- **Notes** — Internal notes about the company.
- **Leads / Pipeline** — Active deals associated with this company.

## Custom Attributes for Companies

Go to **Settings → Custom Attributes → Companies** to add fields like "Annual Revenue", "Contract Start Date", or "Account Manager".

## Filtering and Searching

On the Companies list page, use the search bar and filters to find companies by name, industry, or custom attribute values.

## Importing Companies

Companies can be imported via CSV from the **Import** button on the Companies page. Required column: `name`. Optional: `website`, `description`, `industry`.
