Daily beat plan
Today’s route = every retailer whose beat_day matches today. Auto-built, in order, no setup.
Beat planning & dues, for route sales
Cover the beat,
collect the dues.
Every day your salesman walks a route of shops and every day a little money slips through the cracks. BeatBook plans today’s beat, captures the order at each shop, and keeps a running outstanding per retailer — so nothing is left on a diary page.
No app-store maze. Works on the phone in his pocket. · subscription · pricing on discovery
Stop 01
The route is real. The record isn’t.
A distributor salesman or route-sales rep does the same honest thing every day: walk a fixed set of shops, take orders, and chase what’s owed. The problem was never the walking. It’s that the record of the day lives in three broken places.
-
The diary
Yesterday’s dues are on a page he has to flip back to find. Ink smudges. A page tears. The book stays in the bag when the boss asks for numbers.
-
WhatsApp
Orders and “paid 2000 sir” float in a chat that scrolls away. No shop-wise total, no closing balance — just messages nobody can add up at day end.
-
Memory
“Balaji still owes something… I think.” The outstanding lives in one person’s head. He’s off sick, and the route goes blind.
So dues age quietly, a shop gets skipped, and at month-end nobody can say who owes what. The money isn’t lost to fraud — it’s lost to not being written down in one place.
Stop 02 · The wedge
A salesman’s day is two things at once: a route of shops, and a ledger of dues. Software keeps treating them separately. BeatBook is the one book that keeps both — the beat and the balance — on the same page.
Plan the beat by the day of the week. Capture the order at the visit. Let the visit move the balance. That’s the whole product, and it’s exactly how the job already works.
Stop 03
Four steps, and it’s the day he already has.

1
Today’s beat builds itself
Each retailer has a beat day. Open the app and today’s list is every shop whose beat day is today — already in route order. No planning meeting.
-
2
Capture the order at the visit
At each shop, punch the order. The amount is added to that retailer’s outstanding on the spot — the balance moves as the day moves.
-
3
Log the collection, dues drop
He collects Rs 2,000 from Balaji? Enter it and Balaji’s outstanding falls by exactly that. The running balance is always current, never end-of-day guesswork.
-
4
Close the day with one glance
Planned vs visited, coverage %, total outstanding, today’s collection — the coverage and collection reports write themselves from the visits.
Stop 04
Six things it does, all from the same day’s work.
Order capture per visit
Each order booked at a shop adds straight to that retailer’s outstanding. One tap, no separate ledger entry.
Running outstanding
Every retailer carries a live balance — orders push it up, collections pull it down. Always in sync.
Collections
Log what he collected at each stop. The retailer’s dues fall by exactly that amount, then and there.
Coverage report
Planned vs actually visited, as a clean percentage. Know which shops got skipped before the week ends.
Collection summary
Day and route totals of money collected, shop-wise. The number the boss actually asks for, ready.

Pricing on discovery
Subscription basis
Book a discovery callA quick call to size it to your route.
Built for the man on the route.
If your day is a fixed list of shops and a set of balances to keep straight, BeatBook is yours.
Does he need to plan the route every morning?
No. Each shop is tagged with a beat day when you add it. Today’s beat is simply every shop whose beat day is today — it’s ready when he opens the app.
How does the outstanding stay correct?
It moves with the work. Booking an order adds to a retailer’s outstanding; logging a collection subtracts from it. There’s no separate ledger to reconcile at night.
What does the owner see at day end?
Coverage (planned vs visited), total outstanding across the route, and the day’s collection — shop-wise. The two reports the boss asks for, without anyone tallying a diary.
What does BeatBook cost?
Pricing is worked out on a quick discovery call and billed monthly on subscription. We’re keeping public prices off the page while we onboard our first users.
