The ruleEvery fact has one home. Write it there first, the same day. Everything else copies it, and when two systems disagree, the home wins.
| The fact | Its home | Never the home |
|---|---|---|
| Where a lead came from (source, campaign, tracked number), texts and calls with them | HighLevel | ServiceMinder's channel field is a copy |
| Appointments, proposals, invoices, payments, the contact and its notes | ServiceMinder | HighLevel calendar is a cross-check only |
| The client's design style, budget and inspiration before the visit | Design Journey (design.ktubtu.com), copied to a ServiceMinder note | Rep memory, texts |
| The price, the estimate lines and the finalized selections | JobTread (priced through pricing.ktubtu.com) | Spreadsheets, PDFs saved elsewhere |
| What to order, order status, ship dates, actual cost per item | Job Tracker Google Sheet (fed by the order sheet) | Email threads |
| Schedule, daily logs, budget vs actual | JobTread | Group texts |
| Photos of the property, before / during / after | CompanyCam | Phones' camera rolls |
| The books | QuickBooks (closed monthly by Ledge) | Bank app, Ramp |
| How we do things (standards, SOPs) | This playbook | Intranet rows, old Google Docs |
| Today's numbers and what needs attention | Intranet (dash.goaxyom.com) | — |

3. How our own tools are wired
You don't need this to do the work. It's here so nobody has to guess what breaks when something is down.
CodeGitHubEvery tool's code and every document on this site. Changes are reviewed, then published.
→
Runs onCloudflareHosts the intranet, pricing tool, Design Journey, lookbook and this playbook. Nothing runs on anyone's computer.
→
StoresSupabaseThe intranet's database and logins, the agents' briefs, the email queue, the ServiceMinder / JobTread syncs.
→
Tells peopleEmail & SlackSelection confirmations, order sheets, designer briefs and agent alerts go out through one queue, to team addresses only.
If something looks wrongCheck the intranet's Tech Health tab first: it shows which connection is down and which brief is stale. A board that shows yesterday's numbers usually means an agent didn't run, not that the data is wrong.
4. Where documents live
- Standards and SOPs: this playbook. Edit the source, never a copy.
- Job files: the JobTread job (signed documents, estimate, selections) and CompanyCam (photos).
- Order tracking: the Job Tracker Google Sheet in Drive →
.Project Management. - Business library: Drive folders
01 Company & HRto07 Vendors & Products,KTU Resources. The intranet Library tab indexes them. Finance and HR folders are owner-only. - Email and text templates sent to clients: kept in the code, pasted into ServiceMinder. ServiceMinder holds copies, not the originals.
- Scripts, training, vendor contacts: intranet Playbook, Vendors and Directory tabs.
