Enhancement 

Manual Leads are now as easy as 1 - 2- 3 💥 Worry about the rest of those pesky details later 👋 

1. First name

2. Last Name 

3. Email OR phone number 

Find them on your ALL LEADS PAGE and a new filter to be able to search for all your walk ins and referrals specifically 🔍 

New Features  

Profiles aren't just for social media! 📱 Everyone now has their own personal Dabadu profile to take advantage of the following features: ⬇ 

You're busy! Who has time to go back and forth 9 times over email with someone to book one 15 minute meeting? 📠 Literally no one. Send them your own personalized calendar invite and they can book a time that suits both of you on their own. 1 email. That's all it's takes! 📅 

Blinded by the bright lights of the dashboard page? ✨ Unsure of what 07-08-2022 means and would rather a visual representation? Change your preferences in your profile! Want to perpetually be in dark mode? Done. Want to see your appointments on a calendar instead of a list? Why not - go ahead! 🎈 

Find all of the above by clicking on your display picture/ initials in the bottom right corner of your Dabadu screen 🔦 

Operations Your leads anniversary is coming up and they want to buy a car for their spouse, 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 or they are purchasing a car for their child's 18th birthday and you can only call between 3-6pm to work out the details and not spoil the surprise. You know who would know that? 💁 The reception team - they get all the good gossip! 💬 They can now share that with you through the lead detail notes ✏ Right after they have created the walk-in as a lead and checked them in for their appointment 👣 all in the Dabadu system! Welcome to the party! 

Operations Stephen @ Dabadu! 💫  We have welcomed yet another all star Customer Support Manager to the team! He's around to assist you in all things Dabadu, disk golf, and botany! 🌱 Be sure to reach out with all your Dabadu questions and suggestions - he is the man to get them done! ✔

Two Point Oh

Hey Dabadu-ers! 

As promised, the next Gen of Dabadu is alive and well! 💢 We have been working tirelessly to introduce to you Dabadu 2.0. It has a new look, a new feel and A LOT of amazing new features 💫 

New Features 

📣 📣 First things first - SEARCH BAR! It is back and better than ever - try it out, search your oldest lead, you can't even blink before it appears for you! 👀 

Secondly, Lead Detail page has never looked better 💅

We took away some unnecessary buttons to make room for some of the greatest new features! Dive in and discover some treasures 💰 

These new tabs mean you have the cleanest most concise view possible - and its all one click away! Never lose sight of the most important information about your most important leads! 

Hey Managers, check out this new Communications Report! 📞 You know exactly who is sending the most emails, and which lead is tying up the most of your sales reps time blabbing away on the phone about the new zucchini recipe they found last week 🍆  Easy to spot if any leads have been ghosting your people, or if your people let one slip through the cracks 📌 

Announcement 

We may have moved our Training and Support Meetings, but that doesn't mean we aren't here for you anymore. We have moved to a 1:1 model where you can use this link to book your own specialized support meeting with the ever so lovely Dabadu Success team: https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/DabaduSupport@dabadu.ai/bookings/

Speaking of great Dabadu Success - with a face lift of the Dabadu portal, we thought it was only fair that we change the way our live chat, and Help Center look as well. Everything will act as normal, but with a new summer look 😎 

This is just the beginning of what we have to offer, so make sure if you have any suggestions you voice them soon so we can get them into our upcoming releases! 🙏

We didn't want to wait to get you the features that you have been asking for, so we thought we would do a mini release as a mid-week pick-me-up 🌻 Helping to build that momentum going into another big spring-like weekend! 🚗 💸  

Bug fix

1.6 Release

Announcement Welcome 401 and Franchise team! We are excited to be adding you to the Dabadu club, the Arena has been having all the fun so far, and now it's time to share! We couldn't keep you waiting in suspense any longer - we have prepared an overflowing amount of fabulous features for you and we could not wait to share 🔊  

Bug fix Bugs? Mmm, no thank you 🙅 

Enhancement So you can see your sales on a monthly basis.. but what about a daily update? Do you kill it on the 9th of every month? 📈 Do you wait till the last week and go into overdrive to close 14 deals simultaneously? With the enhancement to the Sales Agent Performance Graph that will be easily distinguishable - we changed the month view to track sales day by day 📆  This graph is the epicenter for your performance; stay tuned for new enhancements to give you a better picture 📊 

Enhancement A walk-in, a renewal, and a referral walk into a bar... you can't tell them apart because they have no identification 👎 You can't best serve them if you don't know who you're dealing with 👣 With the enhanced Manual Lead Identification feature, you can craft the perfect cocktail of vehicle selections that will surely quench all their purchasing needs. 

Enhancement How do you mean by that? 😉 How would it change your managers life if you could add notes while you change the lead status ✏ Explain your thoughts, help the team out with some insight, clarity, and transparency. Write hints to your later self as your lead transitions into the next phase of the sales process, so you are always on your toes going into the next conversation.

Enhancement As we are expanding, things are looking a little differently around Dabadu. Check out the new Menu UI for some spot on branding, and an expedited ease to flow through the vast functionalities available 🚀 

New Features FINALLY! 🙌 The skies have opened and #blessed you with a long awaited and highly regarded feature. Get your cutest selfies ready - you're going to need them 📷 📱 MULTI - MEDIA - MESSAGING  'nuff said 🎤

New Features "Let's circle back to this in a week to touch base", "Let's pencil some time in the books to discuss this further" 🙊 🙉 We all say it - whether you mean it or not 🙈 but at least now.. you can back it up with a Calendar! 📅  See your schedule, block off time to meet with your hot leads; and don't forget to set aside some "me" time to reflect and collect your thoughts 💆  

New Features "Just following up here; looking to close the loop on this", "Wanted to pick this back up and run an idea up the flagpole to get your thoughts and create an action plan going forward" 💢 You've created the appointment in your calendar - great - now what's stopping you from just setting it and forgetting it? 📆  Appointments and Reminders; that's what. Set semi-minute-ly reminders to circle back and send those texts, hop on those phone calls, and close those deals. Can't make a sale, if you don't make it to the appointment - we've got you though; you can't miss the reminders, they are literally everywhere 🌐 

New Features For those of you who think numbers are important - even if they aren't following a dollar sign 💸 Dabadu has brought you customized data abilities! Lead Managers can define the Lead and Sales Month dates to make sure that the deals your closing are counting for the right month - while matching them with leads from the right month! Showing you percentages you can count on! 💰 

New Features Dark Mode 😈 #ifyouknowyouknow 😎   Try it out when you're up late and prepping for a good day's work in the morning - being prepared means you can hit the ground running. But you certainly can't do that with the light of 1000 suns shining in your eye balls 👀  Test out the dark mode - work comfortably through the night. Now available on the web and mobile app 👍 

Operations Life as a Millennial/ Gen Z is hard, sometimes typing up a support ticket/ chat seems like soo much work 😴  Dabadu doesn't believe that that's a good enough reason to not get support tho, so we have implemented open virtual support sessions! Just log in, sit back and ask your questions; our support team can walk you through the issue with no extra typing required! You work hard enough; you deserve it! 🚫 💻 

Operations See you at the 2pm virtual support meeting to get a demo of the new features! 🎬
