Sub Offices (commonly referred to as “Sales Offices”) allow for a unique office to be displayed on the website, but create all web leads in the primary office. Typically sub offices are created when a franchise agreement exists for that location, but the franchisee wants to simplify the management of that location in the Builder Portal. Sub offices only display general information about the office on the website such as the legal name, DBA, address, phone number, etc. Sub offices do not have the ability to create jobs and all functions are to be carried out in the primary offices.
