Some help has to outlast the conversation. A Quick Sheet is the piece of paper someone leaves with: names, addresses, and phone numbers for the few places that actually fit.

Build a sheet#

  1. Name it

    Type a sheet name at the top, like “Front desk handoff.” It prints as the title.

  2. Add up to five listings

    Search Add resources beside the sheet. On a smaller screen, tap Add a block below the sheet and use Add a resource. The counter shows how many of five you’ve used.

  3. Put the best option first

    Use the up and down arrows on each listing. Remove anything the person can’t realistically reach or qualify for.

  4. Say it your way

    Each listing has a summary box you can rewrite in plain words. Add a Top note above the list, a Footer, or an Extra block for a short print-only note.

  5. Preview, then print

    Switch to Preview to see the real page. Then tap Print on a computer, or Share / save on a phone.

Print it or share it#

On a computer, Print opens the sheet in a new tab with your print dialog, which can also save a PDF. On a phone, Share / save opens it with Share link and Print / Save PDF buttons. A shared link carries the sheet as you built it.

Five is the limit on purpose: the sheet is meant to fit one page. When it gets crowded, with five listings or a long title, the preview notes that it’s trimming summaries and hiding websites to keep it that way.

Save sheets you use often#

When you’re signed in, Save keeps a copy in your account. Find it later under Saved sheets in your account, with Open / edit, Print again, and Delete. On a small phone screen the Save button is hidden, so save from a tablet or computer.

Quick Sheet or Handouts?#

Questions people ask

How many listings can I add?
Five. The builder notes that four or five usually fits best.
Can I add a place that isn’t on LaneHelp?
Only LaneHelp listings go in the listing slots. Type other details into an Extra block, or add the missing place so it’s there next time.
Does a printed sheet stay current?
No. Paper is a snapshot, and the sheet shows the date it was made. Check hours before you hand it over.
