All Companies

Posted on by Patric Shannon

This support guide explains the functionality and how to use the All Companies section of the Reputation Management module.

Step by Step Guide

To access this section, click on the Reputation Module header in the left hand navigational menu. This will then expand the module and display all the sections available to you. The very first one is “All Companies”, click on this and the system will then display the list of all activated companies that you have created.

If the company you want to use is not listed, make sure you have set it up correctly by following the Add New Company support guide.

Connecting a Google Account

You can connect a new Google Account by clicking on the “Connect Company” button at the top right hand of the screen. This will take you to the “Reputation Management Integrations” screen. Here you will be able to connect via Google or Facebook (Facebook is currently in development). You can then connect your Google account by following the Connect Google Account support guide.

When you click on “Save Changes” you may get directed to a “Sign in with Google” screen like the one below. Simply choose the Gmail account you want to connect to. If it is not listed then choose “Use another account” option and you will be presented with the familiar Google sign in screens.

You will then be redirected back to the LeadGenerated console and your new Google Account will be listed in the Google – Google Accounts section of the navigational menu.

Returning to the “All Companies” screen, you will see that it gives you an overview of the current status of your company and it’s reputation, if it has been activated or not, the number of connected review sites, the review sites that are connected (e.g. Google), the average rating, the number of reviews, the date of the last review and a column of actions. All the fields are non-editable, as most of them are simply displaying information from other sections, except the “Actions” column which will have either an “Activate” or “View” button shown.

Activating Company

Before you can use any of the other sections, you must Activate your company’s Reputation Management access via this section. This will require the use of 1 Reputation Credit. To activate your company for use in the Reputation module, go to the far right hand column labelled “Actions”. In the row for the company you wish to activate, you will see a red button titled “Activate” with a down arrow on the left hand side of it.

When you click the Activate button, you will be presented with an information box asking “Are you sure you want to activate this feature?” along with a message telling you how many monthly credits you have left for the module and that activating this company will decrease your balance by one. You are then offered the chance to “Cancel” this if you change your mind or “Confirm” if you decide to go ahead with it. If you choose “Cancel” then you will simply be returned to the All Companies list without any changes being made.

When you select “Confirm”, the system will then activate your company and tells you it has been successful in another pop-up information box with a circle ticked. The screen will then automatically refresh and you will notice the red “Activate” button in the far right hand column has now been replaced with a light blue “View” button with an eye icon to the left of it.

You have now successfully activated your company for use with the Reputation Management module of Lead Generated system. If you now click on the “View” button in the “Actions” column you will be taken to the Reputation Dashboard.

Review Funnel

Posted on by Patric Shannon

This support guide explains the functionality and how to use the Funnel section of the Reputation Management module.

Step by Step Guide

To access this section, click on the Reputation Module header in the left hand navigational menu. This will then expand the module and display all the sections available to you. The very first one is “Funnel”, click on this and the system will then display the Funnel template.

Overview

The Funnel section is the beating heart of the Reputation module and allows you to configure how you want positive and negative reviews to be handled. We will walk you through how to configure each section but the overall essence is to protect your businesses reputation online and prevent negative or unfounded comments being published without your knowledge.

This component is the where you can configure the look and feel of the review requests you send out, what type of review system you want to use and at what point you want reviews to not be published before you have a chance to address any issues and potentially gain a positive review instead.

Selecting the Company

First you need to ensure you are working on the correct company’s Review Funnel. To change the company you need to go to the top right hand corner of the screen and click on the arrow in the dropdown menu, scroll down and click on the company you wish to configure.

You can change the company you are working on from all three of the component screens (Review Funnel; Feedback Funnel and Review Sites) in the Funnel section.

Editing the Company

Once selected, you now also have the option of editing the company information from the Funnel. This can also be done from any of the component screens in this section.

Clicking the button will take you directly to the Edit Company screen that you can would normally have to navigate to via the “Settings-Companies-All Companies” navigational menu.

Once you have updated your company information, you will need to click on the Update button. A green banner at the top of the screen will indicate that the information has been updated successfully.

To return to the Funnel section, you will need to go through the navigational menu again by selection “Reputation – Funnel”.

Configuring the Header

Your next step should be to setup the header to your Review Funnel request form. At the top right of the header section you will see a pencil icon. By clicking this it will open a pop-up screen that will give you the option of editing the Heading Text; Subtext and the colour of the heading banner.

Once you have made the changes then you need to click the “Save Changes” button to apply them to the Review Funnel template. If you decide you want to make further changes then simply click on the pencil icon again and make them, remembering to click the “Save Changes” button.

Configuring the Welcome Message and Logo

The next section you can edit allows you to add your logo and welcome message that is displayed underneath the review rating.

To change the logo you can either upload a file from your computer or drag it into the space outlined for the image. Once uploaded, or dragged into place, it will preview the image.

You can then edit the Welcome Message to make it reflects the image of your company and is of the tone that will appeal to your audience.

Once you have updated these components you will need to click “Save Changes” to apply them and return to the Review Funnel template. If you decide you want to make further changes then simply click on the pencil icon again and make them, remembering to click the “Save Changes” button.

*Logo Dimensions: 124 x 124 pixels

Configuring the Review Rating System

The final piece of the Review Funnel template is the review rating buttons, layout and text selection and configuration.

Click on the Pencil Icon next to the 5 Stars below the Logo.

By default Lead Generated sets you up using the star rating system. You will see this indicated by the 5 stars on the left in the “Selected Layout” box and in the “Choose Button Layout” drop down list. On the right hand side of the screen you will see that each of the 5 stars has a Text and Action box assigned. You can change the Text to say whatever you want to align with your company’s image and the tone best suited for your audience.

The Action drop down list allows you to select “Review” or “Feedback”. This is where you can control what type of reviews you want to be published versus the ones you want to gain more feedback on in an attempt to rectify the issues and obtain a more positive review.

For example, If you only wanted 4 and 5 star reviews being published without any intervention, simply select “Review” for those two options. For the rest you will then select “Feedback” and the user will be directed to the Feedback Funnel screen and asked to provide more detail. They will not know the difference and it will be seamless to them but will save your company’s reputation from a negative review being published and affecting your rankings and future business.

Remember, no matter what you do online, the biggest selling tool on the planet is word of mouth. It can also be the biggest business killer.

Feedback Funnel

Posted on by Patric Shannon

This support guide explains the functionality and how to use the Feedback Funnel component of the Funnel section in the Reputation Management module.

Step by Step Guide

To access this section, click on the Reputation Module header in the left hand navigational menu. This will then expand the module and display all the sections available to you. The very first one is “Funnel”, click on this and the default Review Funnel will be displayed. Click on the Feedback Funnel option at the top left of the screen.

Overview

The importance and impact of positives reviews is obvious. What is equally important though is the impact of a negative review. A negative reputation sticks in the mind of customers more than a positive one.

Let’s put this into something tangible for you to consider:

  • It is estimated that 90% of people are more likely to trust and buy from a brand recommended by a friend
  • a satisfied customer will tell approximately 4 to 6 people
  • a dissatisfied customer will tell approximately 9 to 15 people

And it is the last point that the Feedback Funnel aims to address. Instead of allowing the customer to leave a negative response to the Review Request, it will instead direct them to the Feedback Funnel. This enables you and the client to intervene, prevent the negative review going public and have a chance of rectifying the issues with a view to gaining a more positive review.

Selecting the Company

First you need to ensure you are working on the correct company’s Feedback Funnel. To change the company you need to go to the top right hand corner of the screen and click on the arrow in the dropdown menu, scroll down and click on the company you wish to configure.

You can change the company you are working on from all three of the component screens (Review Funnel; Feedback Funnel and Review Sites) in the Funnel section.

Editing the Company

Once selected, you now also have the option of editing the company information from the Funnel. This can also be done from any of the component screens in this section.

Clicking the button will take you directly to the Edit Company screen that you can would normally have to navigate to via the “Settings-Companies-All Companies” navigational menu.

Once you have updated your company information, you will need to click on the Update button. A green banner at the top of the screen will indicate that the information has been updated successfully.

To return to the Funnel section, you will need to go through the navigational menu again by selection “Reputation – Funnel” and select the Feedback Funnel from the menu at the top left of the screen.

Configuring the Header

Your next step should be to setup the header to your Feedback Funnel request form. At the top right of the header section you will see a pencil icon. By clicking this it will open a pop-up screen that will give you the option of editing the Heading Text; Subtext and the colour of the heading banner.

Once you have made the changes then you need to click the “Save Changes” button to apply them to the Feedback Funnel template. If you decide you want to make further changes then simply click on the pencil icon again and make them, remembering to click the “Save Changes” button.

Configuring Heading and Subtext

The next section you can edit is the call to action text on the page. At the top right of the central text field you will see a pencil icon. By clicking this it will open a pop-up screen that will give you the option of editing the Heading Text and Subtext.

Once you have updated these components you will need to click “Save Changes” to apply them and return to the Review Funnel template. If you decide you want to make further changes then simply click on the pencil icon again and make them, remembering to click the “Save Changes” button.

You have now completed the Feedback Funnel setup. If you are configuring this company’s Funnel for the first time then you will need to complete the Funnel setup by following the “Review Sites” detailed support guide.

Website Forms Overview

Posted on by Patric Shannon

Website Forms play an important role in the lead management module of Lead Generated. While the system is very user friendly, this is one place where there is a potential opportunity for confusion. We recommend that you watch the video overview and read this document to get a firm grasp on the role website from play.

For information about connecting the forms on your website please check out one of the following articles:
WordPress Website Connection
Embedded Form (Any Website Platform)
Zapier Website Connection (Any Website Platform)

Video Overview

Website Forms Purpose

Incoming Lead Organization

Website forms serve as a connector between your website and Lead Generated. We named this way because they connect to your website forms on your websites. As form submissions flow from your website through Lead Generated to your clients the website forms help to organize things and make sure the data is sorted into the correct columns within our system.

Embedded Forms

There are a few different methods for connecting your website to Lead Generated. This connection allows your form submissions to be instantly available in Lead Generated for analysis. Additionally, as form submissions flow through our system they are passed through our powerful spam filters. One of the website connection methods is to embed a custom form on your website which is designed within Lead Generated. The website forms play an important role in this process. Refer to this document for more on embedding a form on your website.

Manual Lead Intake Form

There are several ways to get leads into Lead Generated. One of them is to add a lead manually. Perhaps your client is using Lead Generated to add leads to the system as they come into their phone or someone from your team is fielding the calls. To manually add a lead expand Leads from the left navigation and selecting Add New Lead. On the next screen select the company and click next. You will be taken to the website form that is associated with your selected company.

Field Mapping

Website forms play an important role in the field mapping process. After making the connection between your website and Lead Generated any form submissions will appear in our system immediately. As the leads flow into our system we need to know where to store things. We refer to the process of teaching Lead Generated where to store the information from your form submissions as field mapping. Website forms allow us to create those places for the data to be mapped.

In the picture below, let’s pretend this form is a form on your website that you use to collect new leads for your business. You can see in the graphic, that the form is submitted and then it arrives inside of Lead Generated. As the arrows indicate the fields on your form are aligned with the fields inside of Lead Generated. The mapping process is what makes this possible. During the mapping process, you tell Lead Generated exactly which field you want to store the data from each field within our system.

Important Considerations

There are some very important things to keep in mind with website forms.

  • Every company has a website form. When you first created your company there was an option to select an existing form.
  • You can create as many website forms as you like.
  • You can use the same website form for as many companies as you like or have a unique one for each company.

Form Builder

  • Each field you create within the website forms form builder creates a new column. Avoid making duplicate columns as this can lead to confusion when viewing and searching columns.
  • Use the pre-defined fields whenever possible.
  • Custom fields have different icons and IDs associated with them.

Where are Website Forms?

Website forms are a part of the lead management module, so you can find them under the leads menu on the left side navigation.

  1. Expand Leads from the left navigation
  2. Select Website Forms

GMB Management Overview

Posted on by Patric Shannon

The GMB (Google My Business) management module allows you to manage almost all aspects of your GMB from one centralized dashboard.

What Does GMB Management Include?

  • Updating your GMB details from within Lead Generated.
  • Add and removing photos.
  • Replying to reviews.
  • Replying to questions and answers.
  • Making and scheduling posts.

Is the GMB Management Module safe?

Making changes to your GMB through Lead Generated GMB management module is considerably safer than using the normal Google My Business dashboard. We are an approved Google My Business API vendor and we adhere to all of Google’s guidelines for functionality and usage.

Client User Access

You can provide your clients access to Lead Generated which can be a nice value add for both providing transparencies, reporting and giving your clients a CRM they can use to stay organized with their business. Clients are given access on a company level. As you GMBs are associated with companies, if you have provided your clients with the access and you have an active subscription to a GMB location they will be able to see your GMB when they log in.

In order to prevent clients from accidentally creating a suspension issue, we have removed their ability to edit any of the information on the GMB details tab. Clients do have the ability to add photos, reply to reviews, answer questions and answers as well as make, schedule, and edit posts. This should allow you and your client to work as a team and improve the visibility of your GMB with accurate responses to questions, personalized responses to reviews, and real photos from the field (geotagged to their locations).

Step By Step Guides

For step by step guides and a deep dive into all the bells and whistles of the GMB management module check out the tutorials in the sections below.

Getting Started

To get started you will need to have added the associated Google account with your GMB to Lead Generated. If you need some instruction on this process check out the Connect Google Account article in our help section.

Expand Google from the left side navigation menu and choose Google Accounts.

To view the locations that are associated with this account click the “view locations” button. This screen will show you all the locations that are associated with the selected account.

There are two important steps that should be completed to take full advantage of your newly added location.

  1. Attach the GMB to a company.
  2. Activate the GMB.

Attach Company

Attaching the GMB to a company creates a connection between the location and a company within your account. This connection is used in many parts of the application such as the reputation and lead management modules.

To attach the company the click the blue button that says attach company and type the first few letters of the company which is associated with this location. As you type you should see a list of the companies that have text that match what you have typed. Select the company from the list and click save changes.

If you have not created the company yet. Please create the company and return to this screen to make the connection.

After the company has been attached you will notice the blue attach company button in the company column has been replaced by the name of the company that you attached if you ever need to change the company or you made a mistake and chose the wrong company you can edit that within the location details of this GMB.

Activate Company

In order to start using the GMB management for a location, you must activate the location. This requires a subscription which can be purchased in a few different ways. We sell subscriptions for GMB management in individual units or as a part of a package plan. Check out the Lead Generated store for the latest options. When you activate a GMB location you are making the association between the location and a subscription. If you have credits for this module the activation will use one of these credits.

To activate the location choose the activate button and then click the confirm button.

Location Details

The first screen you will arrive at after clicking view location is the location details tab.

This tab shows you all the details that are associated with your Google My Business. All of these can be edited from within this screen.

Each time you access the location details screen we sync your live information from your Google My Business with the information we have stored in our system.

Location Status

You can check the status of your GMB by looking in the top right corner. You will see one of these three options:

Client Access

As mentioned above, clients can view but not edit the details of this tab if all of the following conditions are met:

  • You have an active subscription for a GMB location.
  • You have granted your client access to the company associated with the GMB.

Making Edits

Notice each section has it’s own edit button. If you see some information in one of the sections that needs updated you can select the edit button and it will open up a popup menu where you can adjust the associated information.

Most changes to the GMB will NOT trigger a re-verification, but there are a few which will. We have provided multiple warning messages around the ones that we suspect might cause this. Lead Generated is not responsible for changes you make that trigger a new verification from Google. 

A re-verification will require requesting a new postcard from Google (usually 3-5 business days) and entering the code within the postcard. During this time period, your GMB will not be visible in searches. We have built-in multiple confirmation steps on the GMB location details that are likely to trigger a new verification. 

No changes are submitted to Google until you confirm both warning messages. We have put these systems in place to avoid any accidental changes that could cause trouble for you or your Google My Business Location.

Location Details

The location details section displays and allows editing of the following areas:

Name – this is the name associated with the GMB.

Phone – the phone number associated with the GMB.

Lead Generated Company – this is the company that you attached the location to. If you need to make assign your location to another company within your Lead Generated account click the edit button on the right side of the menu.

Primary Category – the associated category of your Google My Business. For more information on Google’s business categories check out Google’s documentation.

Secondary Category – if your business covers more than just one category you can select a second business category.

Address Details

Making any changes to the fields in this area will almost certainly trigger a re-verification from Google. 

Address– The street address of the location where the GMB is set up. This is where the postcard will be mailed if you make a change to this setting. 

Postal Code– the postal code associated with the GMB location.

City– City where the GMB is located.

State/Region – The state or region associated with the location of this GMB.

Working Hours

This area allows you to view and adjust the working hours of your Google My Business location. To edit these hours click the edit button in the top right corner of this section. The toggle switch on the left side allows you to set whether the business is open or closed on that day. The boxes on the right side allow you to set the open and close time for the specified day.

Special Hours

Just to the right of the working hours, you can set special hours which are exceptions to the normal hours. This is often used to set holiday hours or other events that are an exception to the normal working hours.

Business Description

From the business description area, you can adjust the settings for the following items.

Opening Date – this is the opening date of this location for your business.

Services Areas – this is where you can set the geographical areas that this location can service.

Business Description – this area allows you to provide a description of the business that you provide. It is common practice to weave some of the terms you would like your GMB to rank for in this area. The business description is limited to 750 characters by Google.

Website URL/IDs

This area of the details displays your website URL along with a few other things that can be hard to find such as your Google Place ID, your Google Maps link, and a link to where you can request reviews. If you choose to edit this section you will notice the only area that you have access to edit here is the website URL field. The others are all assigned by Google and they do not provide a way to edit these.

Media

The media section allows you to view, delete, edit photo categories, and upload additional images directly to your GMB.

You will notice on the right side there is a list of photo categories. These categories vary based on a few different variables for your business such as the business type.

Uploading Photos

To upload a photo or photos choose the Add photos button from the top right corner. Choose the desired category for your new photo.

Next, you can drag and drop a photo onto the Upload Image square or you click in the center of the square to browse the files on your computer and select a photo or photos.

If you are image or images uploaded correctly you should see them in the window just above the drag and drop box.

Uploading a photo does not guarantee Google will accept your photo. Google always has the final say on what they choose to approve. There may be a delay before the photos you upload are visible on the internet as Google has its own approval process. In many cases Google will reject photos, this is beyond our control. If you do not see your photos after a few days please check the Google photo specifications or try another photo.

If you are satisfied with the image or images and you have selected the correct category you can click the save button to start the Google approval process.

Editing Photos

If you would like to edit any of the photo categories you can do so by choosing the pencil icon which is located just to the right of the delete button in the top right corner of each photo. After clicking the photo you would like to edit you can select the category you would like to move the photo to and click the save button to apply the change.

Deleting Photos

If you decide that you no longer want a photo to be a part of this Google My Business Location you can remove the photo by clicking the x in the top right corner of the photo than confirming that you want to remove it on the popup menu.

Reviews

To access the review section of the GMB management click the reviews tab at the top of the screen.

The Google Reviews tab allows you to see the list of reviews associated with your Google My Business location and reply to reviews. The reviews are listed in reverse order of the date they were created with the newest reviews being listed at the top.

Reply To Review

To reply to a review click the reply button and type your reply. off to the right side click the “post reply” button.

After replying to a review your reply will not be made live right away as Google has a review process that must take place before the review is live. This process usually only takes a few minutes but it could longer depending on Google’s reply approval process. You will notice there is a pending message that appears while we wait for the reply to go live.

After replying to a review your reply will not be made live right away as Google has a review process that must take place before the review is live.

You can publish your offers, events, products, and services directly to Google Search and maps by creating posts here. For more information about  Google, posts check out their help article: Post On Google as a local business.

Due Diligence Overview

Posted on by Patric Shannon

The Due Diligence Module allows you to easily evaluate and compare niches based on criteria that you decide is important. One of the most important factors in long-term success for any lead generation project is the niche selection. The due diligence tool can save you time and money. Many times a little more research upfront saves us from going down the wrong path.

This tool is designed to help you with this process so you can make a better decision and maximize your chances for success.

Overview Video

Worksheets

To begin the process complete a worksheet on the niche you wish to evaluate. A worksheet is a list of questions that are designed to expose the strength or weaknesses of the competitors in a given niche and market (geographical location).  Your Lead Generated account comes with a default worksheet but if this is not adequate for your needs you can create your own worksheet with our form builder.

Each worksheet has a few required fields, one of them being Rating. The rating is your opinion of how much potential there is for the specific niche based on the answers to your completed worksheet.

Comparing Niches

After completing a worksheet it is saved on the all niches page. This page allows you to sort, filter, and analyze all of the completed worksheets in one place. You can always view or edit previous worksheets that you have completed in the past.

The advanced search page allows you to filter your completed worksheets by city, niche, rating, and date.

Create New Worksheet

We know the default worksheet is not right for everyone. As Google changes and we learn new things the way we evaluate niches may change. If you would like to create your own worksheet to evaluate your niches you can easily do that with our built-in form builder.

Connect Weebly

Posted on by Patric Shannon
Google is incorrectly identifying our Weebly script as malicious software which can cause your ads to be suspended. Please refrain from using our Weebly Scripts with Google Ads until we have a resolution.
Sorry for the inconvenience, we are working hard to get this resolved ASAP.
For now, the workaround is using this Zapier Connection.
Sincerely, Lead Generated Support Team

In this article, you will learn how to connect your Weebly website to LeadGenerated. This connection will allow the form submissions from your website to show up within Lead Generated. If you are using the Weebly script this should happen instantly.

 

Why Connect Weebly to Lead Generated?

There are many reasons to connect your websites to Lead Generated. The first and move obvious reason is so that you can track the performance of your websites and have all your leads in one location. Once the leads are in our system you can start taking advantage of all the powerful sorting, searching, and reporting features. In addition to the organization and reporting features the spam filters built into Lead Generated are very powerful and can save you a ton of time. The spam filters learn as you go and can adjust based on the patterns you see in your spam messages.

 

Beware of Google Ads

If you are using Google Ads then our Weebly Script can cause some issues. Google Ads incorrectly identifies our script as something potentially harmful to your site because it is sending your form submissions data to a third party, Lead Generated. In many cases, this is not what you want but obviously, in this situation, it is exactly what we want. This is the only product that we are aware of that has an issue with our script. So if you are not running ads through Weebly then this should not cause any problem at all. If you are running ads to a page on your Weebly site we have several workaround options that will allow you to connect to Lead Generated without an issue.

Google Ads Workaround Options

Step By Step Guide

1. Login to Lead Generated. Click on “Settings”, then “Integrations”.

2. In the Weebly box, click on the “Connect Weebly Site” button.

3. Select the company that you would like to connect from the company select box and click submit to create the Weebly script.

4. Copy the script generated for you by clicking the copy button.

5. Login to your Weebly account.

6. On the top right menu, select the website you’d like to connect to LeadGenerated, then click on “Edit Site”.

7. On the top menu, click on “Settings”.

8. On the left menu, click on “SEO”.

9. Paste the script copied from LeadGenerated into the “Footer” area of your website.  We recommend making the Lead Generated Weebly script the first piece of code within the footer code area. So if you have an existing one add our code above the existing one. Next, click the save button in the lower right corner and then the publish button in the top right corner.

10. As a final step, it is a good idea to click on the build menu option and then click back to Settings and SEO to ensure the Weebly code was saved properly. If you do not see the Weebly script in the footer code area then it was not saved properly and it will not work until it is saved correctly in this area. If you see the script is not showing in the footer area of the SEO settings after returning from the build area paste the code in again and make sure to click both Save and Publish as shown in steps 8 and 9.

Next Steps

Now that you have successfully connected your WordPress Site. Here are a couple of next steps you should do to make sure things are set up correctly.

Callsling Integration enables you to manage all your leads, calls and form submissions, via Lead Generated and avoids having to keep switching between the two applications.

Once you have CallSling integrated, the companies you have set up with the phone tracking system will bring their associated leads into Lead Generated automatically.

You can then manage the leads by adding them, forwarding or deleting them as required.
