# Book a Technician-Generated Lead job from an existing job

## Overview

If a technician on a job convinces a customer to book additional services, they can be credited for a *Technician-Generated Lead*(TGL) on the new job record. You can track TGLs in reports and set up bonuses to incentivize your technicians to generate new business.

## FAQ

### 

#### How do you measure your technician's performance in generating leads?

[Book](/v1/docs/book-a-job) a separate job for each lead that is generated. Credit the technician who generated the lead on each of those jobs. You can't assign lead credit on appointments.
