As Admin or Super Admin, you can create your Business Directory with Pigeon after you create a business account and invite team members.

Business Directory consists of two major parts:

• User Contacts
• Departments and sub-departments

After you invite your team and the team members sign up, all activated team members of your business become users of Pigeon platform. However, they can't contact your customers unless they are added to the Business Directory and/or added to certain departments. Check to see if the user(s) is in your Contact book. If they're not there, you can create a new contact. Once in your contact list, you can create a group contact(s) and add them to departments to start interactions with clients.

This article covers how to create contacts, create group contacts, create departments and add contacts to a department.
