Adding and managing field sales agents

A field sales agent in Ustawi is more than a login — it is a profile that carries a territory, targets and a full performance history. Setting an agent up correctly is what lets the platform attribute leads, measure results and calculate commission per person.

What an agent profile holds

  • Identity and contact details — who the agent is and how to reach them.
  • Territory — the area or segment the agent works, so leads and performance can be read geographically.
  • Targets — the goals the agent is measured against, giving their performance view a benchmark rather than a bare count.

Setting up a new agent

  1. 1
    Create the profile
    Capture the agent's details so they exist as a distinct person leads and commission can be attributed to.
  2. 2
    Assign a territory
    Give the agent the area or segment they cover. This frames their pipeline and lets you compare like with like across the field team.
  3. 3
    Set targets
    Define what the agent is expected to achieve so their performance is measured against a goal, not just reported as raw volume.

Managing agents over time

Territories and targets are not fixed — as the team grows or rebalances, you adjust an agent's coverage and goals from their profile. Their historic attribution and performance stay intact, so changing a target going forward never rewrites what an agent has already earned or sourced.

Devices in the field

An agent who collects in the field also needs an approved device before they can sign in and work — that trust step is handled separately in the mobile and admin flows.
