Updated this week

Scale your driving-for-dollars team without ever worrying about them duplicating their efforts. It is crucial to ensure that their efforts are not wasted. Don't worry we got you covered! πŸ˜‰

The Driving for Dollars (D4D) feature within DealMachine is a powerful and innovative tool that allows users to locate and track potential leads as they drive. This feature not only aids in finding prospects but also facilitates efficient tracking and management of your driving efforts.

The Real-time Driving Route feature collects all of your driving route data and overlays them all on the map. Here's what a typical map looks like with Real-time Driving Routes.

By utilizing the 'Drive for Leads' functionality, users can visually map the routes they take, ensuring comprehensive coverage of neighborhoods. This feature is crucial for organizing and optimizing lead-generation efforts.

What do the colors mean?

They tell you how old the driving routes are.

  • Green if a route has been recorded within the last 0-6 months.

  • Yellow if a route has been recorded within the last 6-12 months

  • Red if a route has been recorded within the last 12-24 months

This system ensures route-driven areas are visually identified, aiding in recognizing streets that might require attention to avoid duplication.

Real-time Driving Route is available on all of DealMachine plans- Starter, Pro, Pro Plus.

This allows you and your team to record each drive by tracking miles, hours, and the number of properties added per drive.

While on drives, you can add properties as leads directly to the app. It's recommended to familiarize yourself with the D4D feature by watching the support team's beginner-focused video guides.

Additionally, ensure your device maintains a stable internet connection before starting the drive. Issues like missing or unsynced leads often occur due to connectivity problems. Check the app for pending uploads or errors if leads don't immediately appear.

Make sure to Enable Your Location Settings and tap the arrow at the top right corner of the map (on the search bar) to make the app follow your location.

Hope this helps and Happy Deal Finding! πŸ˜‰
