Companies
The Company object allows you to represent organizations, businesses, or accounts within the platform. By associating Contacts with a Company, you can manage data at both person and organization levels — enabling richer segmentation.
Why Use Companies?
Many marketing, sales, and support workflows happen at the account level — not just the individual level. The Company object allows you to:
- Group multiple contacts under a single organization. 
- Store shared attributes (e.g., company size, industry, region) centrally. 
- Run account-based campaigns 
- Avoid data duplication by managing organization info in one place.
