Understanding Your Call and Lead Reports

Learn how to read your call logs, lead reports, and understand where your leads are coming from.

Where to Find Your Reports

In your dashboard, you’ll find call and lead data in several places:

  • Dashboard Overview – Quick snapshot of recent activity
  • Calls Section – Detailed call logs
  • Contacts Section – All leads and their status
  • Reporting – Aggregated analytics and trends

What Counts as a Lead

A lead is created when someone:

  • Calls your number (new caller)
  • Fills out a form on your website
  • Chats via web chat or social
  • Responds to a text campaign
  • Is imported from your contact list

Lead Status

Each lead has a status showing where they are in your pipeline:

What We Do With This Data

We use your call and lead reports to:

  1. Optimize response times – Ensure leads get contacted quickly
  2. Identify peak hours – Make sure Melody coverage is adequate
  3. Track campaign ROI – See which marketing efforts generate leads
  4. Improve Melody – Train AI based on call outcomes
  5. Spot issues – Identify if calls are being missed or mishandled

Look for patterns over time:

Healthy trends:

  • Increasing call volume
  • Improving answer rates
  • Shorter response times
  • Growing conversion rates

Warning signs:

  • Declining call volume (marketing issue?)
  • Dropping answer rates (need more coverage?)
  • Long response times (staffing issue?)
  • Falling conversion rates (lead quality or follow-up issue?)

Notifications

You can configure notifications to stay informed:

  • New lead alerts – Instant notification when a lead comes in
  • Missed call alerts – Know immediately when you miss a call
  • Daily summary – End-of-day recap of activity
  • Weekly report – Summary of the week’s performance
