Adding Applications to Your Leads
Updated August 2026
Adding a lead
When you find a planning application you want to pursue, click "Add to Leads" on the application detail page. PlanningIndex will create a new lead in your CRM pipeline, automatically populated with the property address, planning reference, and application details.
You do not need to manually enter any information — the lead is created from the application data, saving you time and ensuring accuracy.
What happens when you add a lead
The new lead appears in your CRM pipeline at the "New" stage. It includes the property address, planning reference, application description, and a link back to the original application. You can then add contact information, notes, and follow-up dates.
Add applications to your leads as soon as you identify them as relevant. Even if you are not ready to contact the homeowner yet, having them in your pipeline means they will not be forgotten.
Adding contact information
After adding a lead, you can add contact information — the applicant name, phone number, and email. This information may be available on the planning application itself, or you may need to research it separately. Add it to the lead so you have everything in one place when you are ready to reach out.
