Client & deal import

Moving to Kwill? Bring your clients and deals with you.

Import client and deal data from HoneyBook, Bonsai, Dubsado, FreshBooks, QuickBooks, and CSV, then keep working in one freelancer workspace. Client and deal import is not a full platform migration.

Import Data

Bring clients or past deals in from a spreadsheet or the tool you used before.

Choose what to import

Then add the CSV — export it from your spreadsheet or your previous tool first.

Clients

People and companies you work with, and their contact details.

Deals

Past and current deals for your pipeline, linked to clients by email.

Client Data Focus

Import is scoped to client and deal data — not a full platform migration of files, workflows, or automations.

After Import

Your clients are in — now start working.

Clients in Your Workspace

Imported client records are available in Kwill so you can start new work without retyping contacts. Available fields depend on the export you uploaded.
