What is Prospect Report Layout Customization?

Prospect Report Layout Customization allows you to control the structure of your Marketing Audit Reports generated through the Prospecting tool in GHL Customer Care. You can enable or disable report sections and reorder them to better support your presentation flow. This ensures your reports align with your agency’s sales process and client focus areas while maintaining flexibility for one-off adjustments.


Key Benefits of Prospect Report Layout Customization

Customizing your report layout ensures your Prospect Reports present insights in a way that strengthens your pitch and aligns with client priorities.

  • Control the Narrative: Arrange sections in a logical order that supports your sales conversation.

  • Highlight What Matters Most: Move key insights like Overall Score or SEO Analysis to the top.

  • Remove Unnecessary Sections: Hide sections such as Techno Stack if they’re not relevant to your prospect.

  • Set a Global Default: Create a standardized layout for consistency across all future reports.

  • Customize Individual Reports: Make one-off adjustments without impacting your default structure.

  • Consistent PDF Output: Section visibility and order apply to both the web report and exported PDF.
