Using the Lead Manager

See customer information, listen to Phone Call Lead recordings, and view Form Leads messages in the Lead Manager.

The top section of the Lead Manager provides an overview of your Lead Performance Metrics, followed by the main Lead Manager Table.

At the top of the Lead Table you'll see a sentence describing which Leads you're currently viewing, which corresponds to the currently applied Search and Filters. 

Below this sentence there is a link to View Performance Metrics for these Leads as well as an Export to CSV link that allows you to download a file for external spreadsheet or CRM use.

You can easily change which Leads you see by Filtering and Searching your Leads. You can click a Quick Filter link, the Search button, or the Filter button to find exactly what you're looking for.

SeparatorLineSubmitting a Lead for Review

 

We do our best to ensure your Campaigns receive only Billable Leads, but as we connect you directly with customers in real time, occasionally you might receive a Non-Billable Lead. You only pay for Leads from New Potential Customers who are seeking a service that aligns with your Service Category, so if you receive a Non-Billable Lead you may Submit it for Review by our Team. 

Phone Call Leads received less than 7 days ago are eligible for Review (if you have enabled Call Recording so we can verify the caller's intent).

If you believe a Lead should be Non-Billable, you may begin the Lead Review process by clicking "Submit for Review" in the Expanded Lead view. 

SRVP-LeadManager-v12-Expanded-LeadReview

In the popup form, please choose a reason you believe the Lead should not be Billed and leave a detailed explanation to help our review process. Usually the caller's intent is clear, but, if needed, we may follow up with additional questions via email.

mySD-LeadManager-LeadReview-SubmitPopup

Note: If you have Paused your Campaign and then you receive a Lead, we automatically mark it as Non-Billable and you will not be charged.

For more detailed information on our Lead Review Policy, see Understanding Billable and Non-Billable Leads
