# Deal Dropbox

The Deal Dropbox streamlines how you receive site opportunities from external parties. Give brokers and landlords a simple way to submit sites directly to your pipeline—each submission is automatically scored, analyzed, and added to your Deal Dashboard without manual data entry.

***

### What Is the Deal Dropbox?

The Deal Dropbox is a submission portal that allows external parties to send you site opportunities. Instead of receiving site flyers via email and manually entering addresses into your system, the Dropbox creates a direct channel from broker to your pipeline.

#### How It Works

1. **You share a link:** Provide your Dropbox link to brokers, landlords, or other site sources
2. **They submit sites:** External parties enter an address and optionally attach documents
3. **GrowthFactor processes:** The platform automatically analyzes the site
4. **Deal appears in your dashboard:** Scored and ready for your review

#### What Gets Automated

When a site is submitted through the Dropbox:

| Step                   | Automation                                          |
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| **Geocoding**          | Address is validated and mapped                     |
| **Scoring**            | GrowthFactor Score generated automatically          |
| **Revenue Forecast**   | Sales projection created based on your analog model |
| **Data Extraction**    | Information pulled from attached site flyers        |
| **Dashboard Addition** | Deal added to your pipeline for review              |

***

### Sharing Your Dropbox Link

Access your Dropbox sharing options from the Deal Dashboard toolbar.

#### Sharing Options

| Option               | Description                                              |
| -------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| **QR Code**          | Scannable code that opens your Dropbox submission portal |
| **Copy Link**        | Direct URL to share via email, text, or messaging apps   |
| **Download QR Code** | Save the QR code as a PNG image for print materials      |

Include your Dropbox link or QR code in broker outreach emails, marketing materials, or business cards to make it easy for site sources to submit opportunities directly to your pipeline.

### Submitting a Site

External parties have two options for submitting sites to your Dropbox.

#### Photo or File

Select the **Photo or File** button to upload or capture photos of a property flyer, brochure, or site signage. The platform uses AI to automatically extract property details from each image.

**What AI extracts:**

* Property address
* Square footage
* Delivery/available date
* Triple-Net Rent (PSF) — minimum and maximum values

Uploading a single file auto-populates the submission form below with the extracted data. A confidence indicator (high, medium, or low) shows how certain the AI is about each extracted value, and submitters can review and correct any fields before submitting.

Uploading multiple files at once starts a bulk upload instead. See Bulk Upload below.

#### Bulk Upload

Selecting 2 to 50 files at once submits them as separate deals — one file per deal. Each file is analyzed individually, and the results appear in a review grid with one row per file.

Each row shows editable fields for:

* **Address** — required; rows with a missing address are flagged and block submission
* **Square Footage**
* **Triple-Net Rent (PSF)** — minimum and maximum
* **Delivery Date**

A status indicator on each row shows whether that file is still analyzing, ready to submit, or failed. Failed rows can be corrected manually or removed from the grid.

Submitter name, email, and phone are entered once above the grid and applied to every deal in the batch.

Selecting **Submit** creates all ready deals at once. Deals that succeed are removed from the grid; deals that fail — for example, an address that can't be geocoded — stay in the grid with an error so the submitter can fix and resubmit them.

#### Address Mode

Search for an address using autocomplete, then confirm the location on an interactive map. This mode is useful when the submitter knows the address but doesn't have a flyer to upload.

### Submission Form

#### Property Details

| Field                   | Required | Description                                  |
| ----------------------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| **Address**             | Yes      | Street address with autocomplete suggestions |
| **Square Footage**      | No       | Property size in square feet                 |
| **Triple-Net Rent PSF** | No       | Rent range (minimum and maximum) per sq ft   |
| **Delivery Date**       | No       | When the property will be available          |
| **Google Maps Link**    | No       | Link to property location                    |
| **Notes**               | No       | Additional details about the opportunity     |

#### File Attachments

Submitters can attach supporting documents to their submission:

* **Primary photo:** One property image (in Photo or File mode, single-file uploads)
* **Additional files:** Up to 25 files
* **Maximum file size:** 50MB per file
* **Supported formats:** PDF, Word documents, images (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP), text files

Files can be uploaded via drag-and-drop or file browser.

Deals created through a bulk upload don't support additional file attachments — each deal keeps only its source photo.

#### Submitter Information

Contact details are required for all submissions:

| Field     | Required | Description           |
| --------- | -------- | --------------------- |
| **Name**  | Yes      | Submitter's full name |
| **Email** | Yes      | Valid email address   |
| **Phone** | Yes      | Contact phone number  |

This information is stored in the deal notes, making it easy to follow up with the submitter.

***

### After Submission

When a site is submitted through the Dropbox:

1. **Deal created:** A new deal record is created in your first pipeline stage
2. **Files attached:** All uploaded documents are attached to the deal record
3. **Submitter recorded:** Contact information is added to deal notes
4. **Analysis generated:** GrowthFactor Score and sales projections are calculated
5. **Ready for review:** The deal appears in your Deal Dashboard immediately

From there, you can review the submission, move it through your pipeline stages, and follow up with the submitter as needed.

For bulk uploads, each deal in the batch goes through this same process independently and appears in your Deal Dashboard as its own record.
