How the directory works

VendLead in three useful steps.

Start with a real operating center, read the published placement fields, and decide whether protected access is worth unlocking.

The starting point

Distance begins with the operator's operating center.

  • 01

    Set the center

    Supply the operating center that distance should be measured from.

  • 02

    Choose the reach

    Choose a supported radius that reflects the territory you can serve.

  • 03

    Refine the search

    Narrow published inventory by category and the fields that matter to you.

Set a territory. Keep the search honest.

PostGIS compares geographic points. The selected radius filters published leads around the operating center; it is not a claim that the stops form an efficient sequence.

Photography illustrates the environment; lead facts remain attached to the published record that supplied them.

Read the whole signal

The place and the business case belong together.

A useful lead keeps its category, location, audience context, equipment, access notes, commission, and verification field in the same view.

Audience

Published context

Read the audience label and size only when the lead record supplies them.

Placement

Equipment fields

Compare machine count and vending format from the listing.

Access

Operating notes

Use access and placement notes when the publisher includes them.

Status

Independent flag

Verification is a lead field, separate from protected contact access.

Protected access

Verification and access answer different questions.

The published lead can show a verification field. Contact details and private documents remain behind the existing account, purchase, and server-authorization boundary.

Published verification

A visible field on the lead record.

When present, the verification flag describes the listing. It does not by itself disclose a contact, grant file access, or replace authorization.

What stays public

The marketplace preview and the published lead fields.

Unlock only after the published fit makes sense.

A purchase can open the lead's protected contact and related private material when the current user is authorized. The receipt and access remain tied to the existing account flow.

Useful answers

The details behind each decision.

Open a question to see how browsing, verification, PostGIS radius filtering, and access fit together.

Directory search

Let the right opportunities come to your radius.

Choose an opportunity, business type, and preferred radius. Marketplace radius filtering and distance ranking begin only when an operating location is available.

Example preferences: healthcare with a preferred 35-mile radius, or office with a preferred 20-mile radius.
