How to Use Pockets to Organize and Share PitchCards (App)
What is a pocket? Just like putting somebody's business card into the pocket of your purse or wallet, you can put other people's PitchCards in to a virtual pocket.
When searching the Pitch59 carousel for services you need or applicants you want to interview, you can Pocket those PitchCards that catch your eye! For example, if you're moving and need a realtor, on the Businesses Carousel, type in realtor or real estate. Then, as you're scrolling through, if you see one you're interested in, save it to your pockets and continue the search.
When you first create your account, you'll have five pockets, Inbox, Home, Customer Support, Speed Networking, and Favorites.
- Inbox Pocket: Contains the PitchCards that others have shared with you.
- Home Pocket: Holds all your own PitchCards plus any others you’ve added manually.
- If you download the app, these PitchCards will show on your home screen.
- Customer Support Pocket: Includes PitchCards with answers to frequently asked questions.
- Speed Networking Pocket: Displays PitchCards of people you've been connected with through Pitch59.
- You can adjust how often you are networked with others or turn Speed Networking on/off in the Pitch59 app.
- Favorites Pocket. Stores all the PitchCards you've marked as favorites.
You can create other pockets to organize your PitchCards. You could have one for carpet cleaners, lawyers, real estate, leads, etc.
