Investment

Conversion

The purpose of the Lead ‘master’ is to capture sufficient first contact information to enable salespeople to reach out to the contact to discover the customer’s ‘problem’, qualify the sales opportunity, and if appropriate convert the Lead to a Prospect.

Create Leads on Prospects and Customers

A Lead can be created as a stand-alone or belonging to an existing Customer.

New Leads can emerge at any stage after the original Lead was captured. You can create Leads from the Prospect and Customer masters.

Alternatively, you can assign a Lead to a Prospect or Customer by selecting a ‘trading partner’ from the select action in the Company field on the Lead master.
