# The card you leave when nobody answers

A door hanger is a physical card left when nobody answers. Knockdesk is field sales software, and what is a door hanger here is that card on the knob, not a product SKU the desk tracks.

## A hanger in the bag is not a deal on the board

You feel it when the truck is out of cards and Friday still asks how many hangers closed. What is a door hanger is a leave-behind. It does not open a won deal by itself. The desk records that you were there. If they sit later, that is a new disposition, not a hanger SKU turning into money.

**Leave it.** Hang the card when nobody answers. That is field work. It is not a software feature.

**Log it.** Not Home, or no answer, on the pin. Coverage can still move. The card is not the row.

**Do not invent a promo.** This page does not name a discount, a QR offer, or a hanger catalog. Print what your vendor already approved.

## Forty knocks, eleven cards, a day you can recompute

Jordan knocks 40 doors on Harbor loop. 18 are nobody home. They hang 11 cards. The desk shows 18 Not Home outcomes and 0 hanger SKUs. One household from those 11 cards sits later. That sit is a new appointment on the pin. It is not a hanger converting itself into a deal.

| Count | Number | On the desk |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Knocks | 40 | Visits on the pin |
| Nobody home | 18 | Not Home. Coverage still counts. |
| Cards hung | 11 | Physical. Not a SKU row. |
| Hanger objects stored | 0 | The product does not track a hanger catalog |
| Later sit from that set | 1 | A new disposition. Not a hanger scan. |

## The card is not the disposition

A door disposition is the outcome you log. Door knocking is the walk. Nobody home still counts as a visit whether a card went on the knob or not. Do not call the hanger the deal.

- [Door disposition](/glossary/door-disposition): The outcome on the pin. The hanger is only paper.

- [Door knocking](/glossary/door-knocking): The walk that may end with a card on the knob.

- [Coverage ratio](/glossary/coverage-ratio): Finished doors over assigned doors. The card does not change the formula.

## How Knockdesk tracks it

Knockdesk tracks the visit and the outcome, not a hanger SKU. Log nobody home when nobody answers. A later appointment or sold stage can become the deal. The product does not store a hanger catalog and does not invent a promo. Full desk is on the pricing page.

## Keep going from the card

- [Field sales glossary](/glossary): The hub this term opens from.

- [Door disposition](/glossary/door-disposition): The outcome you log after the card goes on the knob.

- [Door knocking tracker](/features/door-knocking-tracker): Nobody-home coverage on the pin, not a hanger SKU.

## FAQ

### What is a door hanger?

A door hanger is a physical card left when nobody answers. It is paper on the knob, not a software object.

### Does Knockdesk track door hangers?

No. The desk tracks the visit and the outcome. It does not store a hanger SKU or a hanger catalog.

### Should I still log the door if I left a card?

Yes. Log nobody home, or the outcome you used. The card does not write the pin for you.

### Does a hanger create a deal?

No. A deal starts when an outcome stage that shows on the deal board lands, such as an appointment or a sold. The hanger is not that stage.

### Does leaving a hanger count as coverage?

Coverage moves when the visit is logged, including nobody home. The card itself is not the coverage event.

### What should be printed on the card?

Whatever your crew already uses. This page does not invent a promo, a discount, or a QR offer.
