New Feature: Hide TRC Campaign Total Until The Big Reveal

Hide the Total Resource Campaign’s grand total

We’re pleased to announce the addition of another feature requested directly from our great chamber of commerce clients! When a TRC is getting near the end, campaign administrators can now choose to hide the grand total from all the salespeople.  This can help build suspense and keep volunteers focused on selling instead of laying back when the campaign goal has been reached.

Learn more about how to hide totals at the end of TRC campaign

The best part is that the salespeople can still login, manage their sales, and see their individual sales totals – so they’ll know if they have qualified for incentives and trips.  The campaign administrator can still see the grand total in the admin only area to make sure everything adds up for the big reveal at the victory celebration.

What is hidden?

The login screen helps keep the TRC campaign progress a secret
The Reports tab has the progress meter hidden
The Leaderboard has the progress meter and parts of the goal grid hidden
The Leaderboard has the campaign to date team totals and division totals hidden

EasyTRC Version 2.9 Goes Live. New 3.0 Design in the Works. Want a Peek?

First and foremost, we’re excited to share that the number of chambers of commerce using EasyTRC has quadrupled so far this year!

Version 2.9 Released

It's now very easy to hide the campaign total so you can keep it a secret for the "big reveal"

We’re also happy to announce that several new features and tweaks have been made to the system in the past few months. Here are some highlights of 2.9 build 21725
1)    The most requested item is the ability to HIDE THE CAMPAIGN TOTAL from salespeople when you get near the end of your campaign. This option can be found in the CAMPAIGNS area on the Admin side.
2)    We’ve moved the menu in the admin area to the left hand side – this gets rid of the issues some people were having in the reports section.
3)    We’ve added a “weekly sales report” to help get an accurate account of sales.
4)    We added division goals to the system.
5)    You can now send an initial email blast to all users at the beginning of your campaign that tells them their username and provides a link for them to change their password
6)    LOTS of speed improvements. Need more? Let us know.
7)    A bug in an update of Internet  Explorer 9 broke sales splitting, so we fixed it.
8)    Admin Area: User can now search for contracts using more fields including number, status, buyer, salesperson, and product name
9)    Selling a new membership is now ridiculously easier
10)  Added a new contract status: PENDING PAYMENT
