what is geofencing in sales
Prove the knock was at the door
What is geofencing in sales is the job of proving a visit happened at a place, not in a parking lot. Knockdesk is field sales software that ties the visit to location permission on the phone. A knock not at the door is unverified.
Book a Walkthrough| Piece | What it means on the walk |
|---|---|
| Definition | A map fence that asks whether the phone was at the address when the knock was logged. |
| The job | Stop a tally from the lot counting as a door. |
| Verified | Location was on, and the visit was at the door. |
| Unverified | The knock was logged, and the phone was not at the door. |
The porch
A pin drop from the van is not geofencing in sales
You feel it when Friday shows 200 knocks and the crew never left the lot. What is geofencing in sales is not a named product on a radius. It is the rule that the visit has to stand at the household. Location permission is what ties that visit to the pin. Without it, the desk cannot mark the door.
Permission
The phone has to allow location. That is what ties the visit to the address.
At the door
A knock logged on the stoop can read as verified. The outcome still has to be saved.
Not at the door
A knock from the van still saves. The desk marks it unverified.
Twelve knocks
Nine at the door, three from the lot, two Fridays
Maya logs 12 knocks on Dock loop. Location is on for 9 of them at the household. Those 9 are verified. The other 3 are logged from the lot, so they are unverified. If Friday treats all 12 as coverage, three doors never happened. If Friday reads verified visits, coverage is 9. Same walk. Two counts.
| Count you read | Numbers | What Friday believes |
|---|---|---|
| All knocks | 12 logged | The turf looks finished |
| Verified | 9 at the door, location on | Nine households actually saw a knock |
| Unverified | 3 from the lot | Three pins that still need a door |
| If location was off | 12 knocks, no tie to the porch | The desk cannot mark verified |
The mark
Geofencing is the job. Verified is the label.
The fence does not replace the outcome. Not Home at the door can still be verified. Sold from the lot is still unverified. Read both. A deal that opened on an unverified knock is a deal you cannot defend on the pin.
Outcome
What happened at the household. Not Home still counts as a knock.
Mark
Verified or unverified. That is how the desk answers whether they were at the door.
Deal
Keep the deal on the same pin as the visit. An unverified knock still shows on that household.
