Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing workflows help the builder turn demand into build-ready opportunities. The goal is to qualify homeowners, keep follow-up visible, create accurate quotes, and understand which marketing work is producing revenue.

Leads page showing lead status and pipeline controls
Start in Leads when a new homeowner inquiry needs qualification, follow-up, or routing.

Lead intake

Use Leads for new opportunities. Review each lead for contact details, project interest, quality, next action, and pipeline status.

Recommended process:

  1. Open Leads and filter by the status that needs attention.
  2. Review the lead source, homeowner context, and next action.
  3. Open the lead detail when you need notes, conversation context, or a DispatchIQ opener.
  4. Move the lead forward only when the next step is clear.
  5. If the lead is ready for pricing, move to Quotes.

CRM is the pipeline management view. Use it to understand where opportunities are stuck.

CRM workflow

Use CRM for pipeline movement. The CRM view is best for answering:

  • Which leads are new, qualified, quoted, won, lost, or stalled?
  • Which opportunities need follow-up?
  • Are sales handoffs happening consistently?

Keep CRM statuses honest. If the lead is waiting on homeowner selection, financing, or proposal changes, the status should make that visible.

Quotes turn a qualified opportunity into a proposal the builder can review and send.

Quotes

Use Quotes to create and review estimates, proposal summaries, assumptions, and constraints. Good quote hygiene matters because quote assumptions become project expectations after a sale.

When building or reviewing a quote:

  1. Confirm homeowner and project context.
  2. Check scope assumptions, cost assumptions, vendor notes, and risk flags.
  3. Make sure the proposal summary is homeowner-readable.
  4. Review margin-sensitive items before sending.
  5. Use quote detail pages for deeper review and revisions.

Marketing screens help the builder connect campaigns, budgets, goals, ROI, referrals, and NPS to actual pipeline health.

  • Keep CRM status current before sales meetings.

  • Review marketing ROI before increasing budget.
  • Send only proposal summaries that a homeowner can understand without internal context.
