Leads are people who may become customers but are not yet active customers.
Use leads to keep potential customers in one place, send invitations, and understand where interest came from.
Open leads#
- Go to Admin > Customers.
- Select the Leads view.
You need the right customer or growth access to see leads.
How leads can be added#
Leads can come from:
- Manual entry
- CSV upload
- Website lead form
- Referral activity
- Other customer acquisition workflows connected to your business
For website capture, see Add a Lead Form to Your Website.
Lead statuses#
Common lead statuses include:
- Pending: the lead has not been invited yet
- Invited: an invitation was sent
- Failed: an invitation or import step failed and needs review
Use statuses to decide who still needs follow-up.
Add one lead#
- Open Admin > Customers > Leads.
- Click Add lead.
- Choose Add single lead.
- Enter the person's name, email, phone, and notes where available.
- Save the lead.
Email is usually required for invitations.
Upload leads by CSV#
- Open Admin > Customers > Leads.
- Click Add lead.
- Choose Upload CSV.
- Use the expected columns shown in the upload modal.
- Review the preview.
- Confirm the upload.
Clean the list before uploading. Invalid emails create follow-up work.
Send invitations#
Use the invitation action when you want a lead to create an account or join your business.
After sending, refresh the list and check status. If an invitation fails, check the email address first.
Use attribution details#
When attribution is available, leads may show where they came from, such as a website form, referral, or campaign source.
Use attribution as context for follow-up. It should guide the conversation, not replace your judgment.
