Let's break each tab down a bit more.

  • Overview

    • The Overview tab contains the timeline of the inspection, including any additional events.

    • This tab also shows the client how many Tasks are waiting for them to complete.

  • Tasks

    • The Tasks tab lets the client know what needs to be completed before and after their inspection.

    • It is split into 2 columns - To Do and Completed

      • To-do tasks are ones that are waiting for the client

      • Completed are the ones they have already done

    • Tasks include signing the agreement(s), paying for their inspection, reviewing their services, and leaving you a review.

  • Services

    • The Services tab is where your clients can see what services they have already booked and request any additional add-on services.

  • Reports

    • Once your inspection report(s) is published, it will live in the Reports tab.

    • PDF Reports added via the attachment button will live in the Reports tab as well.

  • Documents

    • The Documents tab contains all paperwork associated with the inspection including the invoice, the signed agreements, and any additional documents you have added to the inspection (SOPs, warranty information, etc).

  • Contacts

    • In the Contacts tab, your contact information (including phone number and email) is listed.

    • If the client is working with an agent, their agent's contact information will be listed as well.


Tips for the Client Portal

  • Offer Partnerships

    • Spectora partners with national brands to create opportunities to add more value for your clients. This is a fully optional program but an excellent way to maximize your per-inspection earning potential.

    • When a client accesses their inspection report they can interact with your selected partner offers. If the client submits their information and purchases a service you get paid.
