LocalContacts automatically tracks everyone you connect with through LocalReviews, LocalReferrals, and LocalMessages, giving you a comprehensive view of your customer relationships. With LocalContacts, you can:

  • Manage communication preferences: Set how your customers prefer to be contacted

  • Track interactions: View reviews, referrals, and LocalMessages history

  • Engage directly: Initiate texts or emails with customers

  • Log internal notes: Record notes for team reference


  1. Navigate to the LocalContacts tab in the left-hand menu of your OneLocal dashboard where you will see a list of all your customers


From there, you can:

  • Add a new customer

  • Search for specific customers

  • Filter customers by traits or categories

  • Request reviews

  • Invite customers to your Referral program

  • Log notes for multiple customers at once

Exploring the Contact Information Page

Click on a customer’s name to view their full profile. This page provides:

  • A history of interactions, including reviews, referrals, and messages

  • A section to log notes for internal use, visible only to your team

Example:

You can log notes such as, "Customer prefers weekend follow-ups." These notes help streamline communication and avoid duplicate efforts

Engaging a Contact

In the top-right corner of the customer’s profile, click the ENGAGE button to:

  1. Log Notes: Add internal notes about the customer

  2. Request Feedback: Send a review request directly to the customer

  3. Create Referrals: Manually create a referral with the current customer as the Advocate. Enter details of the referred person and confirm the referral now or later

  4. Send Referral Invitations: Invite the customer to join your Referral program. In the pop-up, you can also invite the customer’s friends to participate
