Managing Sales Using Opportunities in Nextiva CRM

⚠️ Nextiva CRM has been retired from the Nextiva product offerings and is currently not available to new users. 

How can businesses effectively manage data for a sales opportunity? Keeping the sales information (lead information, likelihood to close, potential MRR, etc.) organized and quickly accessible helps companies easily track potential sales and move them toward closed deals.

Businesses can use Opportunities in Nextiva CRM to manage each stage of the sales life cycle and accurately predict sales pipelines for a start-to-finish view of the prospect journey.

Stage: The current phase of the sale (required). NOTE: These stages are customizable:

  • Needs Assessment: Learning more about the prospect, their business needs, their pain points with their existing product, getting details to identify a product package you can provide to them.  
  • Value Presentation: Demonstrating products and presenting information to show how your product solves the needs identified in the Needs Assessment Stage.
  • Proposal/Quote: This stage varies widely from company to company, and may include things like delivering a quote or proposal.
  • Closed Won/Lost: As the sales process comes to a close, the sales rep asks the prospect to finalize the deal, which ends in either a win or loss.
