Know the stages

The pipeline has six stages: New, Contacted, Qualified, Negotiating and, once it closes, Won or Lost. The New, Active and Won/Lost views show each group.

Move to the next one

On the lead's record, the main button moves them to the next stage, for example from New to Contacted. The strip below shows which stage they're in.

Pick any stage

Tap the stage next to their name and, under Move to, pick any other, Won or Lost included. Marking a lead lost doesn't ask for a reason; if you want it on record, use the Notes.

Drag on the board

On a computer, in Leads, switch to Board. Drag the card to another column. From the keyboard, use the card's button and pick the stage under Move to.

Check the history

Every stage change is logged as a note in the activity on their record, so your team knows when it moved.
