Models

Lead

The core model representing a potential customer:

from acquisitions.models import Lead

lead = Lead.objects.create(
    company_name='Acme Corp',
    email='[e-mail]',
    status=Lead.Status.NEW,
    source=Lead.Source.WEBSITE,
)

LeadContact

Multiple contacts per lead:

from acquisitions.models import LeadContact

contact = LeadContact.objects.create(
    lead=lead,
    first_name='John',
    last_name='Doe',
    title='VP of Operations',
    role=LeadContact.Role.DECISION_MAKER,
    email='[e-mail]',
    is_primary=True,
)

Touchpoint

Track all interactions:

from acquisitions.models import Touchpoint
from django.utils import timezone

touchpoint = Touchpoint.objects.create(
    lead=lead,
    touchpoint_type=Touchpoint.TouchpointType.EMAIL,
    direction=Touchpoint.Direction.OUTBOUND,
    subject='Introduction to our services',
    occurred_at=timezone.now(),
    performed_by_id=request.user.id,
)

OutreachCampaign

Automated sequences:

from acquisitions.models import OutreachCampaign, CampaignStep

campaign = OutreachCampaign.objects.create(
    name='New Lead Nurture',
    status=OutreachCampaign.Status.ACTIVE,
)

CampaignStep.objects.create(
    campaign=campaign,
    step_order=1,
    step_type=CampaignStep.StepType.EMAIL,
    delay_days=0,
    subject_template='Welcome to {{ company_name }}!',
    body_template='Hi {{ contact.first_name }}, ...',
)

API Endpoints

When using with Django REST Framework:

# urls.py
from django.urls import path, include

urlpatterns = [
    path('api/acquisitions/', include('acquisitions.api.urls')),
]

Available endpoints:

• GET/POST /api/acquisitions/leads/ - List/create leads
• GET/PUT/DELETE /api/acquisitions/leads/{uuid}/ - Lead detail
• POST /api/acquisitions/leads/{uuid}/convert/ - Convert to customer
• POST /api/acquisitions/leads/{uuid}/enroll_campaign/ - Enroll in campaign
• GET/POST /api/acquisitions/leads/{uuid}/contacts/ - Lead contacts
• GET/POST /api/acquisitions/leads/{uuid}/touchpoints/ - Lead touchpoints
• GET/POST /api/acquisitions/campaigns/ - Outreach campaigns
• GET/POST /api/acquisitions/documents/ - Marketing documents

Celery Tasks

For automated outreach, add to your Celery beat schedule:

# celery.py or settings.py
CELERY_BEAT_SCHEDULE = {
    'process_acquisitions_outreach': {
        'task': 'acquisitions.tasks.outreach_tasks.process_scheduled_outreach',
        'schedule': crontab(minute='*/5'),  # Every 5 minutes
    },
}

Custom Models

Use abstract models to add custom fields:

# myapp/models.py
from acquisitions.abstract_models import AbstractLead
from myapp.models import Account

class Lead(AbstractLead):
    account = models.ForeignKey(Account, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    custom_field = models.CharField(max_length=100)

    class Meta(AbstractLead.Meta):
        abstract = False

Then configure:

ACQUISITIONS_LEAD_MODEL = 'myapp.Lead'
