Leads

Track potential jobs from first contact through to a scheduled appointment.

What it is

A lead is a potential job before it becomes an estimate. Leads come in from the public request form, phone calls (auto-created from calls longer than 10 seconds), manual entry, or messages.

Lead workflow

New → Contacted → Quoted → Scheduled → In Progress → Completed → Invoiced → Paid, with side branches for No Response, Not Interested, and Couldn't Repair. The system advances stages automatically when you take the matching action (for example, sending an estimate moves a lead to Quoted).

How to use it

  1. Go to Leads.
  2. Tap + New Lead or open an existing lead from the list.
  3. Fill in customer + vehicle + damage details. Add photos if you have them.
  4. From a lead you can: Send Message, Create Estimate, Schedule Appointment, or Mark Not Interested / Couldn't Repair.
  5. Creating an estimate from a lead auto-fills the customer, vehicle, and notes.

Tips & edge cases

  • The Dashboard "New Leads" list shows only leads in the New stage.
  • Deleting a lead also removes related drafts. You have a short undo window via the toast.
  • A lead with 2+ customer-initiated reschedules shows a visual warning so you can decide whether to keep chasing it.
  • Calls under 10 seconds are not turned into leads (they're treated as missed/short).
