Overview
Every opportunity has a Source value on the list: Manual Entry, Lead Generator, or Contact Form. The source tells you how the lead entered Dirt Face and which extra fields (budget, design image) may be present.
Where in the app: Sidebar → Opportunities → Source column
Open: Opportunities
Manual Entry
Created when your team adds an opportunity inside Dirt Face:
- New Opportunity
- Create menu → Opportunity
Source displays as Manual Entry. You enter customer, address, reference, and service details by hand.
Contact Form
When the Contact Form integration is enabled, website submissions can create a customer and opportunity automatically.
| Typical result | Detail |
|---|---|
| Source badge | Contact Form |
| Customer | New or matched contact from submission |
| Reference / description | From form fields |
| List refresh | New rows appear on the opportunities list (polls every 30 seconds) |
Review and convert these the same as manual opportunities.
Lead Generator
The Lead Generator app lets homeowners lay out a fence and request a ballpark price.
| Typical result | Detail |
|---|---|
| Source badge | Lead Generator |
| Design Preview | Fence layout image on opportunity detail |
| Estimation Budget | Min–max (and average) on the list when instant estimation ran |
| Quote Requested | Badge when the homeowner asked for a formal quote |
| Convert flow | May open the drawing tool with existing canvas data |
Lead Generator leads often arrive with more context than manual entry. Open detail view before calling the customer.
