Manage opportunity contacts
Associate the right people with an opportunity and use contact signals to understand buyer roles and engagement.
Opportunity contacts show the people connected to a deal. Keeping this list accurate helps GTM Engine understand buyer roles, stakeholder coverage, engagement, and whether the opportunity is connected to the right account relationships.
Open opportunity contacts
Open an opportunity and find the Contacts panel.
The panel shows contacts already associated with the opportunity, along with available relationship and engagement signals.
Add contacts and past activity when you create an opportunity
After you create an opportunity manually, GTM Engine offers two optional steps:
- Add contacts — choose which of the account's contacts belong on the deal. All of the account's contacts are preselected.
- Backfill activities — pull those contacts' past emails and calls onto the opportunity. Filter by Emails, Calls, or Both and by a Since date (30 days, 90 days, 6 months, all time, or a custom date; 90 days by default). Tick individual rows, or use Select all matching and untick anything you want to leave out. Nothing is added unless you select it. Leave Process selected activities on to update the opportunity, its contacts, and call coaching from what you pull in.
You can skip either step and add contacts or activities later.
Add contacts
Click Add contacts to associate more people with the opportunity.
Depending on the account context, you can:
- Select contacts already linked to the account.
- Search existing contacts.
- Create a new contact.
- Find contacts by criteria when account domain data is available.
Contacts already associated with the opportunity are shown as already linked so you do not add duplicates.
Review contact signals
Contact cards can include signals such as:
- Promoter score.
- Interest level.
- Contact role.
- ICP persona fit.
- Recent activity.
Open a signal detail when you want to understand why GTM Engine assigned that value.
Remove contacts
Remove a contact from the opportunity when they are no longer part of the deal team or were linked by mistake.
Removing the association does not delete the contact record. It only disconnects the contact from that opportunity.
Keep contacts useful
For better opportunity analysis:
- Link known stakeholders to the opportunity.
- Add missing account contacts before forecast or deal reviews.
- Keep buyer roles current as the deal evolves.
- Review activity history to confirm which contacts are engaged.
