Roles and permissions
LeadScout has three roles. Choose the right one when you send an invite — you can always change it later.Owner
Full access. Owners can manage billing, invite and remove team members, change roles, manage prospects, and see every prospect in the account. Only one owner exists per account.
Admin
Team managers. Admins can invite and remove team members, change roles, and view all prospects across the account. They cannot access billing settings.
Rep (Sales)
Field reps. By default, reps see only their own prospects. An owner or admin can grant a rep the ability to manage prospects or view all prospects if the role requires it.
Only owners can access billing settings. Owners and admins can invite new team members and manage existing ones.
Rep permission overrides
When a rep needs broader access without being promoted to admin, an owner or admin can enable two additional permissions on their profile:- Can manage prospects — lets the rep create, edit, and delete prospects beyond their own
- Can view all prospects — lets the rep see every prospect in the account on the map and in lists
