Click here for FAQs about updating leads
A Quick Action is a one-click solution that your staff can use to update leads more quickly. They are available in a dropdown in the lead log (see below). By selecting a Quick Action, Blitz will:
- Add a pre-written history note
- Update the Status and/or Milestone (optional)
- Add a task or follow up appointment to the schedule (optional)
- create that appointment for either the assigned user, the user submitting the quick action, or both (optional)
- Add a tag (optional)
By customizing Quick Actions, your staff will be consistent and will adopt the system more quickly.

Bulk Quick Actions
Quick Actions can be applied to multiple leads at a time using the checkboxes on the Lead List page (this is an Admin only feature).
- Open a list of leads from the Lead menu or Dashboard.
- Select the leads you would like to apply the Quick Action to. This can be done by either clicking individual check boxes next to leads, or clicking the top check box in the header bar to select all leads on the page. If all are selected, you also have the option to select all within the filtered results, as opposed to only the leads on the current page.
- In the “Select Action” dropdown above the selected leads, choose “Quick Action.” Select the Quick Action you would like to apply to the selected leads, and click “Quick Action.”
- If you open one of the leads, you will see the applied Quick Action in the “History” tab. Any updates within the Quick Action settings will be applied.
