# Auto-Tagging Leads Based on Behavioral Notification Triggers

## Automatically flag high-intent leads, like repeat visitors or people who save listings, so your team can prioritize follow-up without waiting on notifications.

### Why This Feature Matters

Auto-tagging helps you spot and prioritize high-intent leads without relying on someone to catch every notification. When a lead saves a listing, returns to your site, or views the same property multiple times, Sierra can apply a tag automatically, no manual review required.

This gives your team a few concrete advantages:

- Faster speed-to-lead, since active or returning leads get flagged the moment they take action
- Smart filters built on auto-applied tags, so high-value leads surface on the Manage Leads page without a manual search
- Fewer missed follow-ups caused by a notification getting buried or overlooked
- A more sustainable workflow for ISAs and agents managing a high volume of leads

### Step-by-Step Instructions

![behavioral\_notification\_settings](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/hs-fs/hubfs/behavioral_notification_settings.gif?width=670&height=316&name=behavioral_notification_settings.gif)

**Enable auto-tagging based on behavior**

1. Click on your profile icon on the top-right corner.
2. Select **My Notification Settings.**
3. On the dropdown select **Behavioral.**
4. Locate the notification type you want to tag (for example, Saved Listing or Viewed Property X Times).
5. Click the **+** button in the Tags section.
6. Choose one or more tags from the list.
7. Click **Save Changes**.

**Remove an auto-applied tag**

1. In the same area, click the **X** next to the tag you want to remove.
2. Click **Save Changes**.

⚠️ Only Primary Managers and Manager-level users can edit these settings. Agent-level and Lender-level users can view the settings but can't edit or remove them.

For a full walkthrough of creating, editing, and organizing the tags themselves before you assign them here, see [Tags Manager: Adding, Editing, and Organizing Lead Tags](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/helpcenter/the-sierra-tags-manager-how-tagging-enhances-your-lead-management?hsLang=en).

---

### Applies Account-Wide

Auto-tagging rules apply to every lead across the account. Any lead that performs the matching behavior receives the specified tag, regardless of which agent or team they're assigned to. Auto-tagging isn't user-specific; it can't be turned on for some agents or teams and off for others.

[back to the top](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/helpcenter/auto-tagging-leads-based-on-behavioral-notification-triggers#top)

---

### Best Practices

- Build tag-based smart filters on the Manage Leads page to surface high-intent leads at a glance. See [Advanced Search and Smart Filters in the Leads Dashboard](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/helpcenter/advanced-search-and-smart-filters-in-the-leads-dashboard?hsLang=en) for how to set these up.
- Train your team to check tagged leads first in their daily workflow.
- Use consistent, descriptive tag names, like "Saved Listing" or "Viewed 3+ Times," so filters stay easy to read.
- Review your auto-tagging rules periodically as your lead engagement strategy evolves.

---

### Troubleshooting Common Issues

- **Tags aren't applying to the leads you expect.**  
  Confirm the behavior criteria were met exactly, for example, that the lead viewed the same property the required number of times.
- **Agents can't change or remove an auto-applied tag.**  
  Only Managers or the Primary Manager can make tag assignment changes. This is expected, not a bug.

### FAQs

- **What counts as a "behavioral notification"?**  
  Behavioral notifications are triggered when a lead takes a specific action that signals interest or re-engagement. These include: saving a listing, submitting a Request for More Info on a specific listing, submitting a Schedule Showing request, returning to the site after being away for 21 or more days, viewing the same property 5 or more times, clicking 3 or more listing alerts, and taking action while marked as a pond lead in Not Working status
- **Can I apply multiple tags to a single behavior?**  
  Yes. You can associate more than one tag with each notification type.
- **Can I turn this off for some users or teams?**  
  No. Auto-tagging applies to all leads across the entire account.
- **Where do I manage the tags themselves, like renaming or deleting one?**  
  Use the Tags Manager. See [Tags Manager: Adding, Editing, and Organizing Lead Tags](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/helpcenter/the-sierra-tags-manager-how-tagging-enhances-your-lead-management?hsLang=en).
- **How do I make sure my team actually sees a lead the moment it's tagged?**  
  Pair auto-tagging with your notification preferences. See [Lead Notification Settings: Email, Text, and In-App](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/helpcenter/lead-notification-settings-email-text-and-in-app?hsLang=en).
