Each lead is represented by an activity status icon, as well as a progress bar on the Lead Details page. The status icon will change when certain activities are completed.

What do the different icons stand for?

The icons correspond with a Leads activity stage - New Lead, Qualified, DM Appointment 1, DM Appointment 2, Enrolled. A red alert icon will appear when an action is needed.

How can I sort / filter my leads?

Select the filter in the search bar on your Leads list. From here, you can choose to filter your leads by any combination of lead status, next scheduled activity, industry type, or employee size. You can also filter your leads by location.

During your initial login, you will be asked to allow geolocation. It is important to enable this for the app to function properly. You may need to delete and reinstall the app if you are facing issues with geolocation.

The app isn’t updating to my current location when I search for leads?

You may need to review location settings on your device. Depending on your device it is normally stored in Location Services on iOS and Security & Location on Android. If the issue persists, delete the app and reinstall. Be sure to enable geolocation when prompted.

How long do I have to work a lead to the next stage of the pipeline?

The default settings for lead progression are:
New Lead – Qualified: 3 days
Qualified – DM Appt 1: 7 days
DM Appt 1 – DM Appt 2: 10 days
DM Appt 2 – Enrolled: 30 days

If you progress a lead to the next stage before a deadline, any remaining days are credited to the new stage.

Note: Your territory manager can change these settings, if required.

You can review the expiration times set for your territory by going to Dashboard and tapping on the Settings icon top right.

How do I move the lead through the various pipeline stages?

You must record activity in order for a Lead to progress forward. This can be done by scheduling and completing an activity in the Lead Details page.

For example, recording an activity where you spoke or met with someone at the lead automatically qualifies the lead. Setting a meeting with type DM 1 or DM2 moves the lead to that status. Completing a scheduled enrolment meeting sets the lead to Enrolled.

How do I know when my lead is about to expire?

The Lead will be shown with a red alert icon, informing you that it will expire by the stated time (normally 2-3 days).
Note: A lead progresses when a relevant activity is recorded (i.e. setting a DM 1 appointment moves the status to DM Appt 1).

Can I see where I need to travel today?

With the new travelling day feature you can see all your drops and appointments in map view. You can also select to see all your leads and accounts in the area to maximize your time on the road.

My existing accounts - can I manage these?

Yes! In the accounts section, just click on an account to view its details. You can then schedule an activity - calls, drops or meetings, which also get added to your Daily Plan. You’ll never forget to reach out to your clients again.

My team, how can I help and manage them?
