Start a contest on calls before the week gets away.
Run it once, every week or every month, on calls, one tile, closes or points, with no spreadsheet to add up.
30 minutes. You choose the day and the time.

The sums
Healthy contests fill the week, not your sheet
You announce a calls contest in the group. By the end of the week you're counting from the sheet, someone says theirs is missing, and the prize goes out a week late. So you stop running them. Here you name it, pick what counts and choose who wins, and the app does the counting.
01How often
Let it restart itself every Monday.
A contest you have to set up each week is a contest that stops in week three. Choose every week and it starts a fresh round every Monday, in Singapore time. Choose every month and it starts over on the 1st, or run it just once.
- It runs every week, every month or once
- A fresh round on Monday or the 1st
- Calls sprint, MonThis week's round starts, everyone on 00Singapore time
- Calls sprint, SunPriya Nair finishes first62
- Calls sprint, Next MonA fresh round starts by itself0Nothing to set up
02Who wins
Reward the top 3, or everyone who reaches a number.
A single prize for first place gives most of your team nothing to chase. Choose the top place, top 3 or top 5, or everyone who reaches a number you set. Your prize line, like lunch on you, shows on the board.
- Who winsEveryone who reaches 40 callsPrize: lunch on me

03Standings
Keep the standings on the board, counted from the log.
Your team shouldn't have to ask you who's winning. The contest sits on the board, with this round's standings counted from what they log. Each person sees the top places and their own, and nobody at the bottom gets named.

04The group
Tell the group when it starts, and how it's going.
Your team reads the group chat more than they read the app. Switch on Post to the team chat, and the start goes to your Telegram or WhatsApp group with what counts, the rule and the prize. When you want to stir things up, tap Post standings, and the group sees the top places.
- The start posts by itself
- Standings post when you tap
- Top places only, up to once a day
Calls sprint starts. Calls count. Top 3 win lunch on me.

And the rest
Small things that keep a contest fair
Goes well with
Stop adding up contests by hand.
Bring the last contest you ran on a spreadsheet.
30 minutes. You choose the day and the time.
Before you start one
Worried the same two reps win every time?
Then pick everyone who reaches a number, so a rep in eighth can still win. Or run it on one tile, like first calls, where your closers have no head start.
No. The card and the group post name the top places. Each person sees their own place, and nobody else's lower down.
Not the results. The start posts when you create it, if you switch that on. You tap Post standings for the rest, up to once a day, and your team needs a group chat set up.
Not in dollars, unless you're an insurance team running one on FYC. For everyone else, it counts activities, tiles, closes or points.
There's no public price for Palby Sales Tracker yet, so you'll get a price for your team on the walkthrough.
