# Gutter sales software for a saturated neighborhood

You need gutter sales software when gutter and gutter-guard visits are their own work, even on a crew that also sells roofs. Knockdesk is field sales software for that knock. It does not show weather radar. Roofing has its own page.

## How gutter crews sell

Gutter guard door to door sales is a short cycle: saturate the neighborhood, quote the run, and come back when a redo reverses pay. A gutter canvassing app has to keep those visits off the roofing tally.

**Gutter-only.** The visit is a gutter outcome, even if the company also sells roofs.

**Guard add-on.** Log the guard as the outcome the rep actually sold.

**Saturation.** The turf shows what is left, including not-home houses for a second pass.

## Problems managers run into

The Friday number mixes roof inspections and gutter quotes, so a redo chargeback hits the wrong rep.

**Roof pin, gutter sale.** The knock was logged as roofing and the gutter pay has no visit.

**Redo chargeback.** The guard failed and the commission has to reverse.

**Saturated, still knocking.** The block is done and the next rep does not know.

**Radar in a chat.** Weather is not a Knockdesk map. The visit still has to be logged.

## How Knockdesk is set up for this crew

Name outcomes for quoted, guard sold, install set, redo, and not home. Outcome stages are configured by a manager, not applied as a preset. Draw the territory, cut turf, one vendor on the pack, and import addresses by CSV or Excel. Full desk is on the pricing page. A free trial is not open.

| Piece | What the manager does |
| --- | --- |
| Outcomes | Keep gutter labels off the roofing set so the crews do not share a stage by accident. |
| Territory and turf | Cut a gutter turf inside the same neighborhood the roof crew may also walk. |
| Vendor | One gutter vendor. The saved rate is the confirmation rate. |
| Second pass | Not-home is an outcome. The return is a route on the same turf, not a new territory. |
| Full desk | Full desk is on the pricing page. |

## Coach a short gutter pitch

The cycle is short, so the recording is too. Consent first. Skip the file and the outcome remains. Paste into Coach. Six steps are scored: opening, rapport, discovery, presentation, objections, and close.

1. Name the gutter or guard, not a roof promise.
2. Ask where it overflows, and write that on the visit.
3. Quote the run and book the install window.
4. Recap that a redo is a new outcome on the same pin, not a second sale.

## A Sprint for a saturated block

A short cycle fits a Sprint on sold guards or booked installs. An admin or sales manager sets the prize and makes it live. New reps can knock before onboarding ends. The Sprint can still require finished onboarding to count.

**Block.** One turf, one day, sold visits only.

**Not radar.** Rain does not move the standings. Logged sales do.

**Formats.** Marathon, Head to head, Team battle, Custom Team Challenge, Territory War, Survivor, Achievement race, and Bracket are the other formats. Territory War is admin-only.

## Commissions, vendors, and redo chargebacks

A redo chargeback is a void of the sale that should not pay. You match the vendor file by export. Knockdesk does not sync it. The rate stays the saved vendor rate, then the organization default.

| Job | What Knockdesk does |
| --- | --- |
| Vendor rate | The rate at confirmation is the vendor rate saved for that moment. |
| Organization default | Only if that vendor has no rate. If both are missing, the amount stays empty. |
| No invented rate | Nothing is filled in from memory. |
| Void | A reversal is the existing amount times negative one. |
| Dispute | The ledger stays until confirm or void. |

## Compliance on a gutter loop

This is general information, not legal advice. Logging the visit is the job this page walks.

**Beside roofing.** A gutter visit is its own knock. Do not bury it on a roof inspection.

**No storm promise.** Do not tell the resident a claim will pay for the guard.

**Recording.** Ask. A refusal skips the file and keeps the outcome.

**Do Not Contact.** Off the knock list, and not counted in coverage.
