Territory Mapping
How to Map a Door-Knocking Territory
May 15, 2026 · 5 min read
A simple way to draw, assign, and work a territory so reps stop freelancing and managers stop guessing.
Step 1: Pick the boundaries that match the route, not the city
Don't draw on city lines. Draw on streets a rep can actually finish in a day or a week. A good territory has clear edges (a major road, a school, a park) and roughly 200–800 doors depending on density.
Step 2: Paint it on a real map
In Territoryly, paint the boundary with your finger. Assign it to a rep. They now own those doors.
Step 3: Decide your status pin colors
- Gray — not home
- Red — not interested
- Yellow — interested
- Orange — callback
- Blue — quote sent
- Green — sold
Step 4: Work it in passes
- First pass — knock every door, log status
- Second pass — hit the not-homes at a different time of day
- Third pass — convert the yellows and oranges
- Recurring pass — re-knock sold-adjacent doors after install
Step 5: Review weekly
Open the Manager Dashboard once a week. Look for blocks with no pins, reps with no follow-ups, and yellows that never moved to orange.
