The appointment at the table
What is a sit in sales is the appointment at the table. Knockdesk is field sales software that keeps that sit on the same pin as the knock that booked it, so the closer does not rebuild the house from a text.

| Sit | The appointment at the table, in the home or at the counter | A knock, or a name in a thread |
| Set | The setter books that sit. Appointment Set on the pin | The closer already at the table |
| Close | The yes after the sit | The sit itself |
| No-show | A booked sit that never reached the table | A sit you can count as held |
The table
A booked name is not a sit until someone sits
You feel it when the setter swears the living room is ready and the closer starts from a first name. What is a sit in sales is the appointment that actually happens at the table. Appointment Set is the book. The sit is the held table. A no-show never became a sit. Keep those on one pin and one vendor.
The setter
Books the sit at the door. Appointment Set is the outcome they log.
The closer
Sits the deal after the set. They need the same address, not a new contact at the table.
The field
The sit still came from a knock on turf. A table with no pin is a scavenger hunt.
Eight books
Eight sets, six held sits, two no-shows you can recompute
The crew logs 8 Appointment Set outcomes, 6 held sits at the table, and 2 no-shows. Held rate on books is 6 / 8, which is 75 percent. If someone counts all 8 as sits, they are counting the thread, not the table. Appointment rate on 40 conversations is a different formula. Name which one you mean.
| Named count | Number | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Sets booked | 8 | Appointment Set on the pin |
| Sits held | 6 | The appointment at the table |
| No-shows | 2 | Never reached the table |
| Held on books | 6 / 8 = 75% | Do not call this appointment rate unless that is the formula you named |
On the desk
How Knockdesk tracks it
Knockdesk logs Appointment Set on the pin in the field. The sit is that appointment at the table, on the same address and vendor as the knock. The setter books it. The closer sits it. You still name whether Friday is counting books or held tables. Full desk is on the pricing page.
