Prospect Card > Contacts

Contacts are the people associated with prospects or clients that you may wish to add to a pipeline or pipeline activity. Contacts are created and managed via the prospect or client card in either the CRM or resources modules.

Contacts must live against a client or prospect, they cannot exist on their own.
