About Opportunities
An opportunity is defined as a potential revenue-generating event. Opportunity-related information is recorded and tracked in the views associated with the Opportunities screen. This chapter describes how sales professionals can use the Opportunities screen to perform the following tasks:
- Receive and respond to new leads that are assigned to you.
- Create new opportunities and enter related information such as accounts, contacts, activities, and products.
- View, qualify, and update opportunities assigned to you and your sales team (if you are a manager).
- Track the status of an opportunity through the sales cycle from creation to closure.
- Share information about the opportunity with sales team members.
- Generate quotes, presentations, and other types of information needed to close the deal.
