Batch create deals from contacts
I'm looking for a better way to select multiple contacts and then batch add them to an existing pipeline.
I found this video that show how you can do it with automation. It's less than ideal

TBH it's perplexing to me that this is not something that's already built in.
Any ideas much appreciated.

I see your point. Like, select and press a deal button. It's a good request.
This is a good video because the bottom line is that whatever your will do will require automation. This one is pretty simple and does not impact your reporting by, let's say, creating another column to trigger another automation.

@Amit Sarda (AmitSarda.xyz) It seems that way but after experimenting with it, it's not. The main problem is I have a list of contacts, then I have a product that I want to pitch to them. Each product has a pipeline that the contacts get added to. If I do it with the suggested automation method, what happens when I have the next product? I either have to change the automation or clear all the fields and start again. What happens when I have multiple duplicates of the same contact in multiple pipelines. It gets messy quickly. Being able to simply select them and add them to a pipeline stage, creating a deal for each of them would solve the problem without creating an administrative and database mess.

It is the perfect solution for what you originally asked for.
Additional nuance requires additional steps.
