what is a sales leaderboard
Rank on the metric you already log
What is a sales leaderboard is a rank on one metric and one window, filled by work the crew already logged. Knockdesk is field sales software that keeps Today, This Week, This Month, and All Time on Compete, plus Competition and Custom boards. A whiteboard rewritten at lunch is not that rank.
Book a Walkthrough| Piece | What you name |
|---|---|
| Definition | Rank on a metric inside a window, from the knocks and outcomes already on the pin. |
| Window | Today, This Week, This Month, or All Time. Competition and Custom also exist. |
| Metric | The count you already log. Empty window says nobody has scored yet. |
| Who sees it | Admins can filter All teams or one team. Sales managers see the teams they lead. |
The window
A marker board cannot catch the knock that landed after lunch
You feel it when the TV still says Maya 38 and the desk already has 42 knocks. What is a sales leaderboard is the same rank the phone already wrote. Leave that signed-in page open if the room needs a display. There is no public link. A photo of the sheet is yesterday's order.
Today
The DAILY board. Use it when the room only cares about this shift.
This Week
The WEEKLY board. A blitz lives here, not on a lunch rewrite.
This Month
The MONTHLY board. Use it when the pay period is the argument.
All Time
The ALL_TIME board. The season rank, not this afternoon.
Forty-two knocks
Today says Maya first. The whiteboard still says 38.
Today on knocks. Maya 42, Jordan 31, Riley 28. The whiteboard still shows Maya 38 because four knocks landed after lunch and nobody held the marker. This Week on the same crew can reorder the three if Jordan already had a heavier Monday. Same names. Different window. Write the window out loud before anyone reads first.
| Board | Order | What the room believes |
|---|---|---|
| Today on the desk | Maya 42, Jordan 31, Riley 28 | The knocks they logged |
| Whiteboard after lunch | Maya 38, then a guess | Four missing knocks |
| This Week | Can differ from Today | Monday still sits in the week |
| Empty window | Nobody has scored yet | The board says so. It does not invent a rank. |
The room
A sales leaderboard is not a contest, and it is not kudos
A sales contest is a scored game with a format, a prize, and a live window. Kudos is a teammate making a good door public. The leaderboard is the rank. Competition boards sit on a live game. Custom boards are a metric and window an admin sets. The formula for the knock does not change because a TV is on.
Contest
Nine formats on Compete. Head to head stays invite only. That is a game, not the season board.
Kudos
A shout from a teammate. It can sit near the board. It does not replace the rank.
Display
The same signed-in Leaderboards page on a TV. No public display link.
The board
How Knockdesk tracks it
Open Compete, then Leaderboards, and pick Today, This Week, This Month, or All Time. Competition and Custom boards also exist. Ranks fill as reps log activity. An empty window says nobody has scored yet. Full desk is on the pricing page.
