Keep do-not-contact pins off the knock list

  1. 1Open the pin. If you can manage it and it is not already Do Not Contact, choose Mark DNC, then confirm.
  2. 2Or finish a knock with an outcome stage that has Marks as DNC turned on. That stage sets the pin to Do Not Contact.
  3. 3On a pin list, use DNC when you need to mark many pins at once.
  4. 4Leave Do Not Contact pins out of the day's work. Create route defaults to Unvisited, so DNC pins are not in that first list.
  5. 5Read coverage as eligible pins. Do-not-contact and invalid addresses are left out of that count.

Off the list

A DNC pin is restricted, not forgotten

Mark DNC on a pin is the stop that keeps a porch off the next loop. Restricted pins are do-not-contact. Invalid pins are unknown addresses. Neither counts toward coverage. A name on a paper list that never hits the pin will get knocked again.

  • Mark DNC

    On the pin, Mark DNC sets the status to Do Not Contact.

  • The outcome

    An outcome with Marks as DNC does the same thing when the knock is completed.

  • Coverage

    Do-not-contact pins are excluded from eligible coverage, with invalid addresses.
