Running a small business means juggling many tasks, and keeping track of your sales opportunities can get overwhelming without a clear system. Using a CRM pipeline lets you see where each potential sale stands so you can focus on closing deals and growing your business.
📌 Why This Matters
A CRM pipeline organizes your sales process into clear stages, giving you a visual overview of your leads and prospects. This helps you spot where opportunities might be getting stuck, prioritize follow-ups, and plan your sales efforts better—all without needing complicated spreadsheets or guesswork.
✨ What’s New
- Custom Stages: Tailor each step in your sales pipeline to fit how your business works, from first contact to closing the deal.
- Deal Tracking: Easily monitor individual prospects as they move through the pipeline, so nothing falls through the cracks.
🛠️ How to Use It
- Step 1: Define the steps your sales deals go through—for example, Lead, Contacted, Proposal Sent, Negotiation, and Closed.
- Step 2: Add new prospects to your pipeline as soon as you have their contact information.
- Step 3: Move each deal along through the stages as you communicate and negotiate with the customer.
- Step 4: Review your pipeline regularly to identify which deals need attention and which are ready to close.
