Getting started
Preparing your CSV export
The audit is built for real exports, which means messy ones. Don't spend time cleaning in a spreadsheet — duplicates, mixed phone formats, and odd status labels are handled automatically.
Column requirements
- Required (at least one per row): email, phone number, or estimate amount
- Strongly recommended: estimate/quote amount and a status column — these drive the dollar calculations
- Helpful: customer name, estimate/created date, notes
- Everything else: extra columns are ignored safely
Files without amounts
A contact-only list (emails and phones, no amounts) still works — the audit switches to dormant-list mode and reports reachable contacts and a planning scenario for reactivated contacts instead of estimate dollars. Dormant-list mode applies 3% and 8% as its low and high planning-scenario assumptions; these are illustrative multipliers, not a forecast. Add your average job value on upload to see the scenario expressed in dollars. For the full audit, export estimates rather than just contacts.
