Back-office support intake that asks what your team needs to know
Ask which back-office tasks need coverage, how many hours per week the work requires, and whether sensitive customer data is involved—then collect a sample file so your team can scope accurately before the discovery call.
The exact intake your back-office support leads complete
This is the real 7-question guided intake for Back-Office Support — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified back-office support lead should tell you
Ongoing or project-based administrative work—data entry, document filing, invoice processing, or scheduling—delegated to a remote team, qualified by task type, weekly hour volume, and whether sensitive business data is involved.

The questions your team needs answered
Every back-office support intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Which type of back-office tasks do you need support with? | Selecting multiple task types signals a broader back-office scope than a single one-off task, usually meaning a higher-value ongoing engagement. |
| How many hours per week do you estimate this work requires? | Full-time equivalent hours signal a workload large enough to justify dedicated staffing rather than a small one-off task. |
| Do you currently use specific software or systems for these tasks? | Knowing whether the client already has systems in place helps you scope integration work versus building processes from scratch. |
| How soon do you need this support to begin? | An immediate start date signals active work piling up now rather than a client exploring options for later. |
| Are you the person who can approve hiring this support? | Confirming the respondent can approve hiring separates decision-ready leads from ones that still need internal sign-off. |
| Is this support needed on an ongoing basis or for a one-time project? | Distinguishing ongoing support from a one-time project changes how you price and staff the engagement. |
| Does this work involve handling sensitive business or customer data? | Flagging sensitive data early lets you prepare confidentiality terms before the discovery call instead of discovering it mid-conversation. |

Built for back-office support workflows
| Cliont capability | Back-Office Support application |
|---|---|
| Weighted multi-select scoring | Weighs each selected task type (data entry, invoicing, filing, scheduling) so leads requesting several task types together surface as higher-value than single-task requests. |
| Decision-maker flagging | Separates leads submitted by someone who can approve hiring from those needing internal buy-in, using the yes/no approval-authority question. |
| Sensitive-data routing | Uses the sensitive-data question to flag engagements that may need confidentiality agreements before the discovery call is booked. |
| Required upload capture | Collects a sample data file or existing process document upfront so your team can scope hours and pricing before the call instead of during it. |
Common back-office support lead scenarios
Full-time back-office overload
A client selects full-time equivalent hours across data entry and invoice processing with an immediate start date, scoring as a high-priority ongoing engagement worth a discovery call right away.
Small one-time cleanup project
A client picks under 5 hours per week for a one-time document filing project with no urgency, scoring lower and better suited to a quick quote than a full onboarding call.
Sensitive customer data involved
A client flags handling sensitive customer data for order processing, signaling the need for confidentiality terms and vetting before committing to the engagement.
Requester lacks hiring authority
Someone fills out the intake but answers no to being able to approve hiring, so the lead still routes through but gets flagged to confirm the actual decision-maker before scheduling a call.

Back-Office Support lead-intake FAQs
What happens if a client selects multiple back-office task types at once?
The task-type question allows multiple selections, so a client needing data entry, invoicing, and scheduling together shows up as a broader, higher-value engagement rather than a single narrow task.
How does the intake score a lead that isn't sure how many hours the work will take?
The weekly-hours question includes a 'Not sure' option that still scores moderately, so vague-scope leads still qualify for a discovery call instead of getting filtered out entirely.
Does the intake check whether the client already uses specific software?
Yes, a yes/no question captures whether the client has existing tools or systems in place, which helps you gauge integration work before the call.
Can I tell if the person submitting the form can actually approve hiring us?
The intake asks directly whether the respondent can approve hiring this support, weighting yes answers higher so you can prioritize decision-ready leads over ones still needing internal sign-off.
How does back-office support intake differ from your data entry services intake?
Back-office support covers a broader mix of tasks—filing, scheduling, invoice processing, admin support—while the data entry services intake focuses specifically on data-entry volume and accuracy needs.
Does the intake flag engagements that involve sensitive business data?
Yes, a dedicated yes/no question asks whether the work involves sensitive business or customer data, so you can prepare confidentiality terms before the discovery call rather than discovering it mid-conversation.
