Add a deal by hand

For someone who walked in or phoned: who they are, who it's for, and what happens next, one step at a time.

Web forms and imports add their own deals. Use New deal for a person who phoned, or came to you another way. For someone at the counter who wants to look around now, use Walk-in instead: it starts their tour as well. See Walk-ins at the desk.

Steps

  1. Press New deal on Deals, in Operations on Today, or press N there.
  2. Under How did they reach us?, pick Walk-in, Phone call or Other. For Other, say where from: Referral, Event, Giveaway, Campaign or Web form.
  3. Add their name, phone and email. A name, a phone or an email is enough to save.
  4. If Already on file? appears, someone with the same email, the same phone or a similar full name is already a deal. Check the people it lists. Open the one it is, or press It's someone new. See Duplicates and linking a deal to a member.
  5. Press Continue at the foot. Where your business enrols children, the next step asks Who is it for?: each child's first name, age and interest, and what they asked about.
  6. On What happens next?, choose Book a tour or Just save the deal. Assigned to names the owner (you, by default); Change sets another owner, the centre, or tags.
  7. Press Save and book a tour or Save deal.

What you'll see

  • A walk-in or a phone call lands in Contacted, because you already spoke to them, and it is never on the first-call clock. Any other source lands in New and waits for its first call.
  • Just save the deal for someone you spoke to files a callback at the team's next sensible time. Change moves it; No callback drops it.
  • Save and book a tour opens the tour times straight away. See Book a tour.
  • A deal with no phone and no email waits under Needs review until it has one.
  • Deals added by hand get no automatic follow-ups.
