How to Navigate Salesforce
Home
The Home page will show all enquiries for you to contact today. The goal is to clear these lists by the end of the day. These leads will then reappear the next day to be contacted again.
Think of it like managing your email inbox — the aim is to have it empty by the end of the day.
Tip: Start your day in this order to maximise speed of response to “Hot Leads”:
- Club Tours (Today)
- New Enquiry
- Attempting Contact (Hotlist <7 days old)
- Attempting Contact (>7 days old)
- Club Tours (No Show), Club Tours (Attended - No Outcome), etc.
Home/Dashboard
On the Home page, scroll down past your leads to the Dashboard to view all reporting.
You can filter by a particular period (e.g., yesterday’s calls, month-to-date sales) and by contact method (e.g., referrals, outreach, web).
It is important to have a clear understanding of your numbers to identify areas for improvement.
You should review these numbers daily at the start of the day when setting up your plan.
Leads
In Leads, there are two available views: List View and Intelligence View.
Use the Leads tab to:
- Create a new lead
- Manage lead status, edit details, and change the lead owner
- Filter by enquiry type
- Filter by status
- Filter by owner
- Filter by date range
Leads List View
- View all leads
- Edit Leads
- Filter by Lead status
Leads Intelligence View
- Filter by Specific date range
- Filter by Lead owner
Calendar
Navigate to Calendar to view all booked appointments for the month.
Use the Calendar tab to:
- View all appointments booked for the month
- Edit appointment times
- Manage appointment status:
- Booked
- Confirmed
- No Show
- Attended
To Do List
Use the To Do List to view all scheduled follow-up calls. As Sales Consultants, it is important to manage your pipeline effectively to ensure that:
A) No lead is missed or forgotten at the appropriate follow-up time
B) Your follow-up plan is structured and purposeful, rather than aimlessly contacting all leads each day
Create a New Label to categorise your leads
For example; you could categorise your leads into Hot, Warm & Cold
- HOT: Very likely to join (Its just a matter of time)
- WARM: Likely to join (You still have some convincing to do)
- COLD: Unlikely to join (but still worth a follow up)
View Follow Up Call
Click Menu to edit follow up
Click here to apply a new label
💡Important! You must click Complete Task to mark a task as done; otherwise, it will become overdue. (Logging a call does not automatically complete a task.)
Lead Management
Leads must be managed in Salesforce by updating their “status.” This needs to be done manually after logging a call or booking an appointment to ensure leads appear in the correct place, reporting remains accurate, and the lead follows the appropriate member journey, which will assist you in securing the sale.
Managing lead statuses is critical to ensure the Salesforce funnel functions as intended.
New Enquiry
This lead is a brand new enquiry and no attempted contact has been made.
Attempting Contact
This lead is in the process of being contacted or has been contacted, but has not been booked in for a tour or trial.
Tour
Has been booked in to tour or trial the club.
On Trial
Has attended and is currently trialing the club on a free 2 day pass.
Trial Expired
Trial has expired. The next outcome will either be "Converted" (meaning sale) or "Not Interested"
Not Interested
The journey is not over, as they will now enter an automated process designed to prompt them to re-enquire or join at a later time. Leads must be marked as "Not Interested" after 60 days of no conversion, or once the prospect has confirmed that they are not interested in joining.
Converted
Congratulations! You made a sale.
Select "Mark Status as Complete" or "Select Converted Status"
You must click here to save any changes made to a lead status.
Proceed with the following steps if the lead has been converted to a sale
