Managing clients who pay for your services

CUSTOMERS

The Customers page in Rotor is the central hub for managing your paying clients and their historical data. While Leads represent potential revenue, Customers are the heartbeat of your business—individuals or entities with active service plans, paid invoices, and scheduled jobs.

Rotor intentionally separates these two groups to give you immediate visibility into who is currently generating revenue. This separation ensures your sales pipeline (Leads) stays clean and your operational workflow (Customers) stays focused.

Customers

Client Portal

Rotor’s Maps feature gives your team a visual view of your customers and leads, helping with planning, follow-ups, and territory management. This guide will show you how to customize and use the map effectively.

LEADS

The Leads page in Rotor is designed to help you track, manage, and convert potential customers efficiently.

Leads

Pipelines are a way to track leads and customers through any process you define — from quote to close, or converting one-time customers into recurring ones. Think of it as a visual board with stages you move people through as they progress.

Pipelines are especially useful as your business scales and you're managing lots of leads at once.
