Consultant's Guide

Customize, share, and troubleshoot

Everything you need to make this platform feel like yours and keep it running smoothly.

1. Getting started

After you sign up, you get a personal dashboard at /dashboard and a shareable assessment link at /c/your-slug. Send that link to any small-business client and they get a friendly, 15-minute, no-jargon questionnaire. The moment they finish, an AI-generated Opportunity Report appears at /r/[report-id], branded with your colors and logo.

2. Customizing your brand

Open Dashboard → Profile & branding. You can update:

  • Full name & company name — shown on the assessment and the final report.
  • URL slug — controls your shareable link (e.g. /c/jane-smith).
  • Brand color — used for buttons, accents, and the embed code.
  • Logo URL — appears on the assessment cover and in reports. Paste any public image URL.
  • Bio — shown to clients so they know who's behind the report.
  • Calendly / booking URL — see scheduling below.

Click Save. Changes go live immediately — no redeploy needed.

3. Scheduling & follow-up

Scheduling is built in. In Dashboard → Profile & branding, paste your Calendly (or Cal.com, SavvyCal, etc.) link into Calendly / booking URL.

Once saved, every report you generate automatically shows a prominent "Book a call"button that opens your scheduling page. The button uses your brand color, so it feels native to your business.

Tip: Use a dedicated Calendly event type for these intro calls (e.g. "AI Opportunity Review – 30 min") so you can tell where the booking came from.

4. Sharing your link

You have three ways to put the assessment in front of clients:

  • Direct link — copy your /c/your-slug URL from the dashboard and paste it into emails, LinkedIn DMs, or your newsletter.
  • Embed button — copy the auto-generated HTML snippet under Embed on your site and drop it into your website. It styles itself with your brand color.
  • QR code — paste your link into any free QR code generator for business cards or printed handouts.

5. Reviewing leads & reports

Every completed assessment appears in Dashboard → Leads. From there you can:

  • See the business name, contact, industry, and submission date at a glance.
  • Click View report to open the full AI-generated report.
  • Click the copy icon to grab the report's share link and send it to the client.
  • From the report page, open View questionnaire to see every answer they gave — including their phone number, if they shared one.

6. Email notifications

You can set a Notification email in Dashboard → Profile & branding(defaults to your login email if left blank). Once email sending is enabled for the workspace, you'll get an alert with the lead's name, business, and a direct link to the report each time a new assessment is completed.

Heads up: Enabling outbound emails is a one-time platform setup that requires verifying a sender domain (DNS records). Ask the project owner to complete this step inside Lovable Cloud → Emails before notifications will actually send.

7. System status / health page

Visit /status at any time (it's public, no login required) to see a live health check of the database and the AI Gateway. A green banner means everything's healthy. The page auto-refreshes every 30 seconds, so you can leave it open in a tab.

Bookmark it — and you can share it with clients if they ever wonder whether an issue is on your side or theirs.

8. Troubleshooting

"My client says the link doesn't work."

  • Confirm the slug in your dashboard hasn't changed — old links break when you rename your slug.
  • Open the link yourself in a private window to reproduce.
  • Check /status for any service alerts.

"The report didn't generate / I see an error."

  • Have the client refresh and try submitting again — most failures are transient.
  • Check /status — if the AI Gateway is red or yellow, wait a minute and retry.
  • If it keeps failing, the submission is still saved; reach out and we can regenerate the report.

"My branding isn't showing up."

  • Make sure you clicked Save in the Profile & branding tab.
  • Hard-refresh the assessment or report page (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + R).
  • For logos, the URL must be publicly accessible — paste it directly into a browser to verify.

"I'm not getting notification emails."

  • Confirm email sending has been enabled for the workspace (see section 6).
  • Check your spam folder and your Notification email setting.

Still stuck? Take a screenshot, note the time, and contact your platform admin. The more detail, the faster the fix.

You're in good hands. Almost everything you can change lives in your dashboard, and every report is saved the moment a client submits — even if anything else goes wrong afterward. Nothing is lost.
