• Improve sales performance and team collaboration
• Monitor the sales pipeline and conversion rates

Lead: A potential customer or initial inquiry that has not yet been qualified.
Opportunity: A qualified sales prospect with a higher chance of becoming a customer.
Customer: A person or company that has already purchased products or services.
