# Fence sales software for the yard quote

You need fence sales software when the rep quotes the yard, waits on an HOA, and gets paid when the install is done. Knockdesk is field sales software for that visit. It is not a fence layout tool.

## How fence crews sell

Fence door to door sales stands in the yard, chooses wood versus vinyl with the homeowner, takes a deposit, and waits on HOA approval. A fencing canvassing app keeps that sequence on the deal.

**Yard quote.** The rep measures and prices. The desk logs the visit.

**Wood or vinyl.** Write the material on the deal. There is no layout drawing in the product.

**HOA.** Approval is a follow-up, not a software stamp.

## Problems managers run into

The deposit is in, the HOA has not answered, and the install completion never updates the pay.

**Quote in a photo.** The yard was walked and the pin has no outcome.

**HOA limbo.** The deal sits with no follow-up, so Friday looks sold.

**Material switch.** Vinyl became wood and the original visit does not say so.

**Paid before completion.** The install is unfinished and the commission already posted.

## How Knockdesk is set up for this crew

Name outcomes for quoted, deposit, HOA pending, install complete, and cancel. A manager adds the outcome stages. Do not treat that as a preset. Territory, then turf, one vendor, CSV or Excel import. Full desk is on the pricing page. A free trial is not open.

| Piece | What the manager does |
| --- | --- |
| Outcomes | HOA pending should require a follow-up so the deal cannot look finished. |
| Territory and turf | Cut yard turf a rep can quote in the hours they have. |
| Vendor | One fence vendor. Confirmation uses the saved rate. |
| Material | Wood or vinyl goes in the visit note. No layout tool. |
| Full desk | Full desk is on the pricing page. |

## Coach the yard quote

Record only with consent. A skip still logs the quote. Paste into Coach. Six steps are scored, and the script is pasted, not imported.

1. Ask wood or vinyl, and what the yard has to keep in or out.
2. Walk the line they want. You measure. The product does not draw the fence.
3. State the deposit and that HOA approval is a follow-up, not a yes.
4. Recap that pay follows install completion on your confirmation rule.

## A Custom Team Challenge for completed installs

Custom Team Challenge lets you point a crew at completed installs, with a rule you write. An admin or sales manager saves the draft and makes it live. Onboarding does not block the first quote. Eligibility can still require it.

**Rule.** Count install-complete deals, not deposits sitting in HOA pending.

**Teams.** Name the crews. The challenge does not draw the fence line.

**Formats.** Sprint, Marathon, Head to head, Team battle, Territory War, Survivor, Achievement race, and Bracket remain. Territory War is admin-only.

## Commissions, vendors, and install completion

Confirm when the fence is complete if that is when you pay. A cancel after the deposit is a void when the pay should reverse. Vendor rate, then organization default, then empty.

| Job | What Knockdesk does |
| --- | --- |
| Vendor rate | Confirmation reads the vendor rate saved at that time. |
| Organization default | Fallback only when the vendor rate is missing. Otherwise empty. |
| No invented rate | The product will not guess the pay. |
| Void | Reversal equals the existing amount times negative one. |
| Dispute | Holds the written dollars until confirm or void. |

## Compliance for a fence quote

This is general information, not legal advice.

**HOA.** The approval is not issued by Knockdesk. Log the pending follow-up.

**Property line.** The rep confirms it. The desk does not survey.

**Recording.** Ask in the yard. No means skip the file and keep the outcome.

**Do Not Contact.** Those yards stay off the knock list and out of coverage.

## FAQ

### What is fence sales software here?

It logs the yard quote, the HOA follow-up, the material, and pay at install completion. Knockdesk is field sales software. It does not lay out a fence.

### What is a fencing canvassing app?

A fencing canvassing app is the turf and the knock that produces the yard quote.

### How do fence door to door sales track wood versus vinyl?

The rep writes the choice on the visit. The product does not render either material.

### Does the desk approve an HOA?

No. HOA pending is a follow-up the manager configures. The approval stays outside Knockdesk.

### When should pay post?

When you confirm, at the vendor rate or the organization default. Leave the amount empty if you never saved a rate.

### How much does Knockdesk cost for a fence crew?

Full desk is on the pricing page. A free trial is not open. There is no second Knockdesk tier.
