Save-A-Deal Sheet
Every deal that did not close in the last 24 hours, named on this sheet with one action, one owner and one date.
Same time, same room, every day. The salesperson gives five things: customer, unit, our number, their number, the one reason it stopped. The room gives one action, one owner, one date.
This meeting
Build the list the night before, from the CRM, and print it: write-ups that did not deliver, shows with no worksheet, declined or conditioned credit, appraisals that left, no-shows.

A line with a blank owner or a blank date did not get worked. Reopen the sheet at 72 hours and mark every line. The last two minutes of the meeting belong to the open we-owe log (DSK-03), read out loud. Keep the sheets ninety days and tally the reason codes.
