In the Taskbar, you are able to search Leads and Clients separately.
Lead - clients who don't have any active services with you and/or who never have - they sit under the 'Lead' Section on the CRM
You will be able to 'Search' leads, add new leads via 'Add New Personal File' and/or 'Add New Business File'.
Client - Clients who have at least one active service with you.
Same with the Leads, you will also be able to 'Search' , add new via 'Add New Personal File' and/or 'Add New Business'
Note: We do a quarterly 'sweep' of the Contact Status to make sure that everyone is sitting where they're supposed to be and to ensure your database is reflecting the correct Contact Status for all clients.
First of all - it is best to spend the time up front, structuring your searches to display the information that is most useful to see from the get go.
Filter - Refer to the 'Search Your Leads & Clients' section
Reset - Refer to the 'Search Your Leads & Clients' section
The cog in the right corner, next to the search and filter buttons to easily move the columns around into a view that suits your individual preferences - this will be saved for next time you log into the CRM. Use the icon on the right of the 'Column Selection' box to move them from Visible to Not Visible.
You can move the columns around manually also (not using the Column Selection section). Drag left or right to reorder.
Sort by your chosen column (for example, click the 'Mobile' Column to sort numerically)
Resize the columns in this view by hovering over the right of the title until your cursor changes to the black resize cursor.
Drop down the Filter to refine your search, or hit the 'reset' option to search for everything sitting under Lead and Client.
The Filter Icon will drop down a selection of fields to refine your search by (including First & Last Name)
