After you have set up your email and Sell Voice number you can use the Sell Communication Center () to manage all your correspondence with leads and contacts, including emails, phone calls, and text messages.
The Communication Center is split into three areas that cover email, calls, and text messages. Calls and text messages are split into matched and unmatched communications.
Viewing email activity
All emails in your inbox are scanned and synchronized to Sell when you integrate your email. Whenever you send or receive emails from a Sell lead or contact, whether you are working in Sell or your own email client, Sell attaches a copy of the communication to their record.
- Inbox: view all emails received from existing leads and contacts.
- Untracked emails: view emails received from people that are not recorded as leads or contacts in Sell.
Click Add as Lead or Add as Contact to add the email sender to your Sell account.
- Sent: view all emails you have sent in Sell, and emails that have been sent outside of Sell using an integrated email product.
View when the email was sent from Sell, whether or not the email has been viewed and the number of times it has been viewed.
- Archived: view the emails you've archived in Sell.
Check the box next to any email to bring up a secondary menu in the top navigation bar in your email view. From here you can mark the email as read, unread, or archive the email. Use the search to find a particular email.
Click directly on any email in your inbox to view the contact or lead page for that person, and their email history.
Viewing phone call activity
Incoming and outgoing calls belonging to leads or contacts are displayed in the Matched section for calls in the Communication Center.
Calls to and from phone numbers that are not associated with leads or contacts in Sell are listed in the Unmatched section.
The number in parentheses, for example, (7), indicates how many missed calls you have.
To see a list of all of your missed calls, for both matched and unmatched calls, click Show only missed calls.
Matched calls
