Dashboard

Lead Generator Dashboard alllows you to quickly Add a Lead, view Today's Calendar events, view recently added Leads, view your Lead Categories, and preview your Email Campaigns.

Only permission based leads may be manually added to Lead Generator. How do you know if your lead is "permission based"? If you have verbally spoken to this person and they are interested and want you to followup - they are a lead. Leads come into the system either from lead forms, forms on web pages,  manually entered, lead importer or the address book importer.  Your account can accept up to 3,000 leads per annual rolling period (1-year).

Each shared Lead Category has been created by your network administrator and has compliant email messages ready to be sent to your leads. In the Lead Categories block you will see the category name, the number of emails within that category and the number of leads within the category.

                  category that the email message will be triggered to the lead.
Step 3:     Click Preview Email to view the email message.


Shared Email Campaigns:
Shared Lead Categories are campaigns that have been created by your network administrator and include compliant email messages that are compliant and cannot be edited. Shared email messages will include your My Signature.

Note: Your My Signature uses personal account information from fields in Account Settings.

Step 2:     Name the Category.
Step 3:     Click Add Category. Your new category has been created.

                 Message to be sent. The “days” represent the days from when a Lead is
