Ad lead
Section titled “Ad lead”An enquiry that arrived from an advertising campaign. The default kind. Can be offered to an agent with Request Assignment.

Blacklist
Section titled “Blacklist”Marking a lead as one nobody should pursue, with an optional reason. Keeps the record, unlike deleting.
Branch manager
Section titled “Branch manager”The role that runs an agency: sees every lead and listing, assigns leads, approves agents, and is the only role that can delete a lead or open Office Performance.
Campaign
Section titled “Campaign”A named advertising effort. In practice, a campaign card exists for each distinct property name across your leads — which is why Property Code matters.
Comment
Section titled “Comment”What an agent writes after working a lead. The most valuable text in the system: it is what managers read, and what the agent needs when they return to the lead weeks later.
Commented
Section titled “Commented”The share of leads that have a comment on them. The clearest measure of whether your team is working leads or merely receiving them.
Converted
Section titled “Converted”The lead status meaning they bought or rented.

Finance admin
Section titled “Finance admin”A role that sees only the agent roster and advertising budgets.
Hidden lead

Personal agency
Section titled “Personal agency”The single-person agency an independent agent gets. No Agents screen, and some capabilities need a paid plan.

Property Code (Lead Mapping)
Section titled “Property Code (Lead Mapping)”The field on a listing that ties incoming leads to it. Set it to whatever your adverts call the property, so enquiries land against the right listing.
Property Reference
