chart-kanbanDeals Overview

The Deal Dashboard is your command center for managing site opportunities from initial discovery through signed lease. Stop losing promising sites in spreadsheets and email threads—track your entire pipeline in one place with full visibility for all stakeholders.


Accessing the Deal Dashboard

Navigate to Deal Dashboard in the left sidebar under the Manage section. The dashboard displays all deals across your organization, organized by pipeline stage.


Dashboard Views

Toggle between three views using the icons in the top-right corner:

Kanban View

The default view displays deals as cards organized into columns by pipeline stage. This view is ideal for:

  • Visualizing pipeline health at a glance

  • Moving deals between stages via drag-and-drop

  • Quickly scanning deal volume by stage

  • Pipeline review meetings and status updates

Each column shows the stage name and deal count. Cards display key deal information including location, address, GrowthFactor Score, and status rating.

Table View

Displays all deals in a spreadsheet-style format with sortable columns. This view is ideal for:

  • Filtering deals by specific criteria

  • Sorting by score, location, or date

  • Reviewing detailed information across many deals

  • Exporting data for external analysis

Filtering: Use stage filters to show only deals in specific pipeline stages.

Columns: Customize which columns display based on what matters most to your workflow.

Map View

Plots all deals geographically on an interactive map. This view is ideal for:

  • Understanding geographic distribution of your pipeline

  • Identifying regional clusters of opportunities

  • Viewing deals alongside existing stores

  • Spatial analysis of pipeline coverage

Toggle existing store visibility to see deals in context with your current footprint.

Deals progress through customizable stages that reflect your evaluation workflow.

Team Visibility

All team members with dashboard access see the same pipeline, enabling:

  • Shared understanding of pipeline status

  • Collaborative decision-making

  • Handoffs between team members

  • Management visibility into deal flow

Activity Tracking

The activity log captures who did what and when:

  • Stage changes show who moved the deal and when

  • Comments are attributed to their authors

  • File uploads track who added documents

This transparency supports accountability and helps new team members get up to speed on deal history.


Best Practices

Create deals early. Add sites to your pipeline as soon as they're worth tracking, even before deep evaluation. The Searched stage exists for early-stage opportunities.

Keep stages updated. Move deals promptly when status changes. An accurate pipeline enables meaningful reporting and prevents balls from dropping.

Use comments for context. Document key observations, concerns, or next steps in comments. Future-you (or a colleague) will appreciate the context.

Attach files consistently. Store all deal-related documents in the deal record, not in email or local folders. Centralized documentation saves time and prevents lost information.

Review the pipeline regularly. Use the Kanban view for weekly or biweekly pipeline reviews. Stale deals in early stages should be moved forward or disqualified.

Leverage scores for prioritization. Sort by GrowthFactor Score to focus energy on the highest-potential opportunities. Don't let weak-scoring deals consume disproportionate attention.

Disqualify decisively. Move rejected sites to Disqualified rather than deleting them. This preserves the record and prevents re-evaluating the same site later.

  • Quick Search: Create deals directly from site analysis

  • Deal Dropbox: Receive external site submissions

  • Shared Maps: Include deals in shareable map links
