At AIMcrm we think you’ll agree that all sales lead fall into one of four mutually exclusive groups:
Under each status, choose from a customizable list of sub-statuses which categorizes them within each of the four statuses. This allows you to pull reports on exactly where each lead is within the sales cycle, providing you with data to quickly make crucial business decisions. For example, you may want to keep track of why sales are lost that could have been won. To report on this, create sub-statuses of: "Chose Competing Product" or "Too Expensive". Then, when you look back at your reports you will see exactly which of your sales were lost to the competition which were lost due to price.
With AIMcrm, set up custom sub-statuses for each of the four basic statuses (open, closed-won, closed-lost, or non-qualified) These help set the stage of the lead. Some common custom sub-statuses are:
Sub-statuses can even be color-coded so you can easily distinguish between your leads in the lead list. Custom sub-statuses pinpoints the progress of a lead through your sales cycle. They’re a great way to further divide leads and refine your lead list with precision.
