KnockDesk

what is a leave behind in sales

Paper after the talk, then the pin

What is a leave behind in sales is physical material you put in a hand or on a door after the talk: a one-sheet, a magnet, a door hanger. Knockdesk is field sales software that logs that visit on the turf. It does not stock a collateral SKU.

The stoop

A flyer on the knob is not coverage until the pin says so

You feel it when the van is empty of paper and Friday still shows Unvisited on houses that have a hanger. What is a leave behind in sales is the physical piece. Coverage is the visit you logged on the turf. If Maya talks at 418 Oak, leaves a one-sheet, and never saves an outcome, Jordan recuts that porch tomorrow.

  • Material

    A one-sheet, a magnet, a hanger. It lives in the world, not in a product catalog.

  • Visit

    Log the outcome on the pin, even when the talk was short and you left paper.

  • Turf

    The pack you hold. A leave-behind that never hits that pack is a blank door for the next loop.

Forty talks

Twelve sheets left, eight visits logged, four porches the map still calls new

Maya holds Dock loop, 160 pins, weekly visit target 70. She talks at 40 doors and leaves a one-sheet at 12 of them. She logs 8 of those 12. Four houses have paper on the knob and still read Unvisited. Next week those four look fresh. Recompute coverage from the pin, not from the stack in the van.

Recompute Dock loop. Same 12 sheets. Only the logged visits hold the turf.

Not the hanger

A leave-behind is not a door hanger by default, and it is not the knock

A door hanger is one kind of leave-behind. The knock is the visit on the pin, including Not Home. Leave paper if the talk needs a remainder. Still log the stop. The desk will not tell you which SKU went out.

  • Door hanger

    One physical piece you can leave. Still log the visit.

  • Turf

    The pack the leave-behind has to sit on, or the next loop treats the house as new.

The log

How Knockdesk tracks it

Log the visit on the pin after the talk, including when you left paper. Knockdesk stores that outcome on the turf. It does not inventory a collateral SKU. Full desk is on the pricing page.
