To Do's

What is a To Do?

A To Do is simply an task on your To Do list. To Do's are a great way to stay on track with your lead follow-up, and ensure nothing falls off your radar.

How are To Do's Created?

To Do's can be created 3 ways:

  1. System Generated. When contacts take certain high-value actions, your system automatically creates a follow-up To Do for you. Ex: When a contact favorites a property on your website, your system creates a To Do for you that says "Ask questions and offer a private showing. (Contact Name) favorited a property" See full list of system generated To Do's below.
  2. Manually Created. When you want to remind yourself to take certain actions, you can add a custom To Do to your list by clicking the + To Do button. You can set the due date, description, and which contacts it's for.
  3. Campaign Generated. You can automate your custom To Do's by creating a campaign. Search "action plan" in the campaign library to see our pre-built options, or create your own from scratch.

Types of To Do's

Except for Hand Raises, To Do Types are just labels and don't change the functionality of the To Do.

Working Your To Do's

To Do's appear in several places throughout your system, so you have a few options for viewing and completing them.

Contact details are displayed on the right, so you have notes and context in front of you when you're making calls and emails. Mark each To Do complete when you're done, so you have a record of completing it and an up-to-date To Do list. To get there: Click on the To Do tab, then click To Do List.

Managing Your To Dos

Individual Actions

You can manage your To Do's one at a time by clicking an action on the To Do card.

Mark Complete: When you check the Mark Complete box on a To Do, you are marking it as done. It will be removed from your To Do list and logged in the Activity Feed section of the contact record. You can also see completed To Do's on the Bulk Actions page in case you ever need to review them.

Snooze: When you snooze a To Do, it will snooze it for 24 hours so you can re-visit it the next day.

Edit: If you need to edit any details about the task, including the due date and time, you can do that here.

Delete: Removes task from contact history.

Bulk Actions

To edit, snooze, complete, or delete multiple To Do's at once, you can use the Bulk Actions page. Click on the To Do tab and select Bulk Actions.

Here, you can filter To Do's by type, due date range, and completion.

To Do filters will stay applied between sessions, so always check your filters when searching for To Do's.

To edit multiple To Do's at once, simply check the box next to the To Do's you wish to manage, and then click the button for the action you want to take (Mark Complete, Mark Incomplete, Snooze, Edit Due Date, Delete). This may be particularly helpful if you have a back-log of To Do's that need to be cleaned up.
