Hi

Iâ??m new to Microsoft CRM. There are no books available as far as I know
(Dummies book not available until Juneâ?¦) and I was wondering if someone could
help me on workflow of, firstly, the marketing section of CRM 3â?¦

This is what Iâ??ve done so far and Iâ??m unsure of how or what to do next..

I purchase 5000 records from a data agency.
I manipulate headings etc so to import them into CRM
I send 5000 emails and get 950 responses. The data agency sends me an excel
document that lists who opened the email, and how many timesâ?¦

It doesnâ??t make much sense to go through each one, find the original lead,
and link it somehow to this lead. Can I import these 950 responses and link
to or update the original lead in anyway rather than manually?

Any help greatly appreciatedâ?¦

In the web UI you can go to Import and import a csv file as Campaign
Responses. CRM lets you associate the leads with a particular campaign and
even an outsourced vendor, such as you used.
