Show a cleaner, faster capture process with scan and database-health metrics.
You need to show leadership how the office's contact-capture process is performing. This guide walks you through pulling activity data from Covve, summarising cards scanned, contacts saved, duplicates prevented, and the overall health of your contact database.
The report demonstrates that Covve delivers a cleaner, faster capture process than the previous manual correction workflow.
Export contacts in a structured format to hand over cleanly.
Maintain a de-duplicated, complete, up-to-date contact database over time.
Bulk-sync contacts to the correct Outlook lists, replacing manual entry.
Tag and group contacts by event, sector, or relationship so they can be found.
Pull the contact-capture activity for the period. Gather the activity data from Covve for your reporting period.
Show cards scanned, contacts saved, and duplicates prevented. Extract the headline metrics: cards scanned, contacts saved, and duplicates prevented.
Note the state of the database — completeness and duplicates. Review the contact database health indicators: completeness and duplicates.
Compare against the previous manual effort. If you have baseline data from the previous manual-correction workflow, calculate the improvement in database quality and reduction in manual correction steps.
Summarise into a short update on contact capture. Package the metrics into a concise summary: cards scanned, contacts saved, duplicates prevented, database health, and the efficiency gain over the previous process.
**COVVE — CAPTURE SUMMARY** **Period:** [Month Year] **Activity:** - Business cards scanned: [value] - Contacts saved: [value] - Duplicates prevented: [value] **Database Health:** - Contacts with complete fields: [value]% - Current duplicates: [value] **Comparison:** - Previous manual process: [value] per card - Covve process: [value] per card - Manual correction steps eliminated: [value]% **Summary:** Covve captured [value] cards in [Month], saving [value] contacts with [value]% field completeness and preventing [value] duplicates. The process eliminated [value]% of correction steps compared to the previous manual-correction workflow.
For the period, show cards scanned, contacts saved to Outlook, duplicates prevented, and the state of the contact database, as a short summary.
Flag and merge duplicates so re-scanning someone doesn't clutter the list.
Capture a whole event's stack of cards together as structured contacts.
