Run one security route before you roll out another tool.
Use Lightning Leads with one rep, one sales pocket, and one 20-door route. If the first hour gets cleaner, keep the workflow and decide whether Lite or Pro should carry the next seat.
One rep
No teamwide rollout before proof.
Twenty doors
Small enough for a manager to inspect.
One decision
Free, Lite, or Pro after the route proves value.
Dealer Owner Path
Turn a curious manager into one completed route.
If a security owner lands here from a form reply, Facebook group discussion, or LinkedIn touch, the next action is not a demo deck. It is one route built on a real phone and judged against tomorrow's first shift.
1. Build
One real route
Use the neighborhood, ZIP, or pocket the rep would already be working.
2. Work
One first hour
Judge whether the route, notes, and statuses reduced random motion.
3. Decide
Lite or Pro
Keep Lite for route discipline. Move to Pro when owner contact follow-up matters.
The pilot should answer one question: did the route make the day cleaner?
Do not start with a giant territory or a full sales deck. Start with a route your rep can actually work, then judge the app on field behavior.
- Was the first route tight enough to work without guessing?
- Did the rep capture notes and statuses during the shift?
- Were there callbacks or owner lookups worth following up?
- Could a manager repeat the same workflow with the next rep?
Start the first route
1. Install
Use the phone that will work the route.
2. Build
Create one 20-door route before the shift.
3. Score
Review the route before upgrading.
What to do after the first route
The revenue decision should be tied to what the route exposed, not a vague promise that the whole team might use another app.
Stay Free
If the rep is still learning the workflow, build another route before making a paid decision.

Use Lite when the win is saved routes, notes, statuses, and a repeatable daily route workflow.
Start LitePro - $49.99/mo
Use Pro when owner phone or email lookup creates follow-up value from stops on the route.
Start ProFAQ
Who should run the first pilot?
Use one rep, team lead, or manager who knows the market well enough to judge whether the route saved time.
What counts as a successful pilot?
A successful pilot produces a cleaner first hour, better route notes, fewer wasted stops, or follow-up opportunities worth moving to Lite or Pro.
How should a dealer owner test Lightning Leads after seeing a quick outreach note?
Install the app, build one real 20-door route for tomorrow, and upgrade only if the route creates a cleaner field day or useful owner follow-up.
Does this require a team subscription?
No. Start with the app and one route. Upgrade only after the pilot proves the route workflow is useful.
