  4. MISTAKES THAT RUIN CRM AND SALES PROCESS LOADED PIPELINES A CRM application provides a sales pipeline which is an extensive visual display of the opportunities at different stages of your sales process. It helps you to keep track of every deal as and when it moves through the sales pipeline. But if your online CRM is loaded with pipelines, it can be a challenging task to collect the relevant data and get an overall outlook of the sales. You can differentiate the leads by their sources if there are too many pipelines. Custom fields will help you to differentiate leads instead of creating a new pipeline.

  5. INVOLVEMENT OF EXCESSIVE STEPS IN SALES CYCLE The main stages of sales process are- • Leads • Appointment • Qualification • Presentation • Objectives • Sale • Referrals These stages are the basic stages of a sales process but the prospect customers do not act the same as that of your qualified customers. Knowing which sales stage is required in your sales CRM pipeline for the customer is the initial step to move. Few customers may require 3 stages i.e, first interest, meeting and agreement. Thus, do not exceed more than 7 basic steps of the pipeline as it may result in dilution of the process and you may not get effective information from the stages of the pipeline.
