Caller Information Capture in Lead Intake
The first step of lead intake is recording the customer's name, address, phone number, and email. If the caller is a returning customer, the system should surface their history — previous jobs, installed equipment, and membership status. ServiceTitan's standard workflow automatically identifies whether the caller is new or existing and displays their full history, giving the CSR immediate context before the conversation continues.

Caller Information Capture in Lead Intake
Lead Intake Accuracy and Downstream Impact
Arrange the five phases of converting a customer lead into a work order in the correct order, from the initial phone call to the job appearing on the dispatch board.
A homeowner calls your office about a constantly tripping circuit breaker. Your customer service representative captures their information, verifies it is a job your company handles, and checks the schedule. At what exact moment does this lead officially convert into a work order?
As your office handles a new phone call, you must navigate the steps to turn the caller into a booked job. Match each practical office action to the correct phase of the lead conversion process.
During a busy morning, a caller requests an electrical panel upgrade. Your office administrator logs their contact details, confirms your company handles panel upgrades, and verifies there is schedule capacity next week. The administrator then creates a detailed work order and places it as an unassigned entry on the dispatch board, assuming the assigned technician will call the customer later to agree on an exact date. This workflow successfully completes the lead-to-work-order conversion process.
You are auditing the front office's adherence to the intake workflow. You discover a record placed on the dispatch board where the receptionist captured the caller's details, qualified the request, and checked capacity, but the customer hung up before agreeing to a specific date. To justify removing this entry from the board, you conclude that because the service appointment was never confirmed, the interaction remains a lead and failed to officially convert into a ____ ____.
You are designing a 'Lead Conversion Protocol' for your new electrical business to ensure that every inquiry is successfully transformed from a raw lead into a confirmed work order. Which of the following protocol designs correctly integrates the necessary phases to ensure the job is ready for immediate assignment on the dispatch board?
As the owner of a new electrical contracting business, you are constructing a 'Lead Conversion Script' to ensure your office staff follows the correct five-phase protocol. Arrange the following dialogue segments in the logical sequence required to successfully move a customer inquiry from a raw lead to a confirmed work order on your dispatch board.
In the five-phase workflow of converting a lead into a work order, what is the primary distinction between 'qualifying the request' and 'checking capacity'?
A customer calls your electrical business to request the installation of a whole-home surge protector. You have already captured their contact information, qualified the request, and verified that you have capacity in the schedule for next Tuesday. According to the five-phase lead conversion process, which action should you perform next to move the lead closer to becoming a work order?
In the lead-to-work-order conversion process, why is 'checking capacity' a necessary step before moving to the 'confirming the appointment' phase?
Arrange the phases of the Lead Intake to Work Order Conversion process in the correct chronological order, starting from the moment the potential customer first contacts the electrical contracting office.
In the workflow of an electrical contracting business, which event marks the official conversion of a 'lead' into a 'work order'?
Match each office staff action to the correct phase of the process used to convert a potential customer lead into a confirmed work order.
If a new 'unassigned entry' for an electrical job is visible on the dispatch board (as shown in the image), it indicates that the 'confirming the appointment with the customer' phase of the lead intake process has already been completed.
When an office manager evaluates the dispatch board (as shown in the image) to determine which entries have successfully converted into valid work orders, they must verify that each has reached the final standard of the intake process, known as the ____ phase.
Once a lead has been successfully converted into a work order and appears on the dispatch board (as shown in the image), which staff member is primarily responsible for reviewing the unassigned entry?
True or False: In the lead intake process, the purpose of 'qualifying the request' is to ensure that the electrical company has an available technician and an open time slot on the calendar.
A local restaurant calls your office because their walk-in cooler's compressor circuit keeps tripping. To successfully convert this urgent lead into a valid work order that appears on the dispatch board (as shown in the image), arrange the following office actions in the correct chronological order according to the standard intake process.
An electrical business owner is investigating why potential customers are calling but jobs are not successfully appearing on the company's dispatch board. Analyze the following operational failures and match each to the specific phase of the 'Lead Intake to Work Order Conversion' process that is being handled incorrectly.
An office manager evaluates a series of scheduling errors where technicians were promised for appointments that the company did not have the manpower to fulfill. The manager would judge these errors as a failure to properly execute the ____ phase of the conversion process.
