Trellus for Google SheetsTurn a Google Sheet into a controlled calling queue
Map the columns your team already uses, then power or parallel dial rows while keeping the spreadsheet, tab, row, selected number, and follow-up context attached.
Where Trellus works in Google Sheets
Watch Trellus dial from a Google Sheet
This short Trellus walkthrough shows the in-Sheet calling experience. Use it to understand the flow, then test your own column layout, filters, permissions, and result fields on a sample copy.

Official Trellus product walkthrough. The video demonstrates the workflow; it does not replace a permission and row-update test for your Sheet.
The Google Sheets surfaces Trellus uses
Use the Sheet as a focused calling list while your CRM continues to own customer records.
Trellus identifies the current Google spreadsheet so the queue stays attached to the file the rep is actually working.
Each tab keeps its own list identity and resume point. Moving from “US prospects” to “EMEA prospects” does not treat both tabs as one queue.
Choose the columns for name, company, phone types, email, and useful call context. Rows without a usable number—or rows your Trellus controls exclude—stay out of the call block.
The row number and direct row link remain attached, so a rep can return to the source instead of searching for the person again.
From visible row to focused call block
Open the right tab
Start in the spreadsheet and sheet tab that owns the list. Trellus keeps that location as the queue scope.
Map the columns once
Map mobile, work, home, or other phone columns alongside the identity and context your reps need during the call.
Review the callable rows
Confirm filters, missing numbers, wrong-number markers, and any “do not call again” state before starting.
Choose power or parallel
Work one number at a time or use an Trellus parallel session without exporting the list to another tool.
Return to the same row
Send the result or callback marker to the designated Trellus columns and keep the visible row current.
The row remains the unit of work
A research note, owner, source URL, or campaign label can stay visible with the phone choice. Trellus does not force every useful column into a formal CRM object first.
Use designated Trellus columns for call state
The value is not a vague “sync.” It is a small, inspectable set of fields on the same row.
When a Sheet is the real operating surface
This workflow fits teams with a maintained call list, stable columns, clear row ownership, and a reason to keep research and results in the same file. It is less useful when the spreadsheet is an ungoverned export full of duplicates, unclear consent, and shifting columns.
Dana opens “September webinar — US follow-up,” maps Mobile and Work once, and keeps an event question visible during each call. Her EMEA tab keeps a separate queue and resume point.
Google Sheets and Trellus
Where does Trellus work in Google Sheets?
Trellus works from the current Google spreadsheet and sheet tab, using mapped rows as the calling queue. The columns, filters, permissions, and result fields should be on a sample copy.
Can Trellus power dial from Google Sheets?
Yes. Map the phone columns, review eligibility, and use the Trellus power-dialing workflow while the source row remains attached.
Can Trellus parallel dial a Google Sheet?
Trellus teams can parallel dial mapped rows. Available lines depend on the Trellus plan and calling setup, not on Google Sheets.
Can I authorize only one sheet tab?
No. Google applies Sheets access to the spreadsheet file rather than one tab inside it. Review the permission request before authorizing a real file.
What happens when I switch tabs?
The queue and resume state are tied to both the spreadsheet and the sheet tab, so work from one tab is not reused as though it came from another.
Does Trellus overwrite other columns?
The intended workflow targets designated Trellus result and callback columns on the row. Use a sample file with the real column layout to confirm result fields and unrelated values.
Does Trellus turn Google Sheets into a CRM?
No. Trellus adds a controlled calling workflow around mapped rows. It does not create CRM object permissions, activity relationships, or native task behavior.
Test the Sheet your team will actually call
Use a sample copy with the same columns, filters, tabs, and list shape. check the queue, result row, and callback before reps use production data.
