The Overview tab

The Overview tab answers "what do I do next on this offer?", the stage card, the Waiting on you card, and the cards below it.

The Overview tab opens first. It answers the question you arrive with: "what do I do next on this offer?"

#The top of the tab

Shows the stage, "Stage N of 7", when the offer was started ("started today", "started yesterday" or "started N days ago", counted from the day the offer was created), and how many emails have gone out. Below it a stage card explains What you do now, What happens next and what to Watch for at this stage.

#The "Waiting on you" card

Shows the one next thing to do, with the person to contact (phone and email), how long it usually takes, and an I have done this button for steps only you can confirm. Finish one and the next appears.
