BeatRoute's sales team app now tracks one-off tasks, not just routine visits. A manager assigns a task to one customer or a whole segment, picks a date or a date range, and sees which reps have done it and which have not. Reps can schedule their own tasks too, so every sales activity a campaign adds sits in the same app as the regular beat. Brands run seasonal and short-term campaigns all the time, and these asks fall outside the fixed SOP visit routine. Without a way to assign and follow them in the app, nobody can tell which were finished.

If what you need is live GPS location, check-ins and attendance for your field sales reps, see sales force tracking.

Why This Matters

Ad-Hoc Task Management

Managers can create a one-off task the day the need comes up and follow it until every rep it went to has done it.

Streamlined Execution of New Market Activities

Work outside the standard SOPs, such as a seasonal push or a new market activity, is assigned and tracked in the same app reps already use for their visits.

Mechanism for Completion

Each task shows as done or not done for every rep and customer it was assigned to, so managers can follow up on the gaps instead of asking the whole team for an update.
