The Problem

Leads fall through the cracks, follow-ups get forgotten, and you have no idea which marketing works

A homeowner calls your Google Ads number on Monday. By Wednesday nobody has called back. By Friday they hired your competitor. You paid $80 for that lead and never knew it existed.

Lost leads, zero visibility

Leads arrive via phone, form, referral, and social media. Without a central system they scatter across sticky notes, texts, and memory. You cannot fix what you cannot see.

No follow-up system

The 3-attempt rule wins jobs, but nobody tracks attempts. Estimators forget, leads go cold, and revenue walks out the door.

Unknown lead sources

You spend money on Google Ads, yard signs, and door hangers but have no idea which channel produces profitable jobs. You are flying blind on marketing spend.

Capabilities

A painting-specific CRM that tracks every lead

From first contact to booked estimate, know where every lead stands.

14-Status Pipeline

A configurable pipeline with statuses designed for painting workflows: new, contacted, estimate scheduled, estimate completed, proposal sent, and more.

3-Attempt Contact Rule

Track every contact attempt per lead. The system enforces a 3-attempt minimum before marking a lead as dead, ensuring no lead is abandoned prematurely.

Source Attribution

Tag every lead with its source: Google Ads, referral, yard sign, Angi, Thumbtack, or custom. See which channels produce the most revenue, not just the most leads.

Auto-Client Creation

When a lead converts, the system automatically creates a client record with all contact info, notes, and history carried forward. No re-entry required.

Follow-Up Reminders

Automated reminders ensure no lead sits idle. Configure follow-up intervals per status and get notified when a lead needs attention.

Lead Analytics Dashboard

See conversion rates by source, response time metrics, and pipeline velocity. Identify bottlenecks and optimize your sales process with real data.

FAQ

Common questions about lead management

Yes. You can import leads via CSV upload. Map your columns to our fields, and the system creates lead records with source, contact info, and notes preserved.

You tag each lead with its source -- Google Ads, referral, yard sign, Angi, Thumbtack, or a custom source -- when it enters the system. The analytics then show which channels produce the most revenue, not just the most leads.

Each lead tracks contact attempts. The system requires at least 3 documented attempts (call, email, or text) before a lead can be marked as dead. This prevents premature abandonment of leads that could convert.

Admins and owners see all leads. Estimators see only leads assigned to them, ensuring focus and preventing duplicate outreach. Leads can be reassigned by admins at any time.

The system automatically creates a client record and links it to the lead. All contact history, notes, and source attribution carry forward. You can then create estimates directly from the client record.
