Pipelines And Opportunity Tracking

See every deal, owner, and next action at a glance.

Keep your entire furniture sales pipeline visible so reps follow up faster and managers coach with real data.

What this gives your team

For Sales Reps

  • Create an opportunity in minutes and track it from first contact to close

  • Set custom phases that match your store’s selling process

  • Attach products / line items so the opportunity reflects the real deal

For Managers

  • See what’s moving, what’s stuck, and what needs attention today

  • Spot patterns behind losses (qualification, timing, follow-up)

  • Forecast more accurately based on pipeline health, not gut feeling

What you can track

  • Opportunity status by stage (what’s in each phase right now)

  • Win rate vs. loss rate (where deals drop off)

  • Conversion between stages (Lead → Appointment → Sale style view)

  • Pipeline aging (how long deals sit in each stage)

  • Rep activity / ownership coverage (who is responsible for what)

Automations

Automated Follow-Up for Every Lead Type

Trigger emails, texts, and rep tasks based on lead type and pipeline stage. Every touchpoint is logged in one place.

Lead-type workflows (phone, web, chat, social, walk-in, appointment)

Set different follow-up paths based on how the lead arrives, so the next step matches the situation. Whether someone calls, chats, fills a web form, messages on social, walks in, or books an appointment, the lead enters the right workflow automatically—no manual sorting, no missed handoffs.

Automatic messages + tasks when key moments happen

When something important happens in the sales process, the system responds for you. It can send the right email/text to the customer and create the next task for the salesperson—so follow-up stays consistent after lead creation, stage changes, inactivity, appointments, purchases, and delivery milestones.

Clear ownership and complete communication history

Every lead is assigned to a responsible rep, and every touchpoint is recorded in one place. Calls, texts, emails, notes, and follow-up tasks stay attached to the opportunity, making it easy to pick up where things left off, hand off cleanly, and manage accountability without chasing updates.

Reporting

This is how managers stop guessing.

Monitor traffic, opportunities, close rate, and sales outcomes over time—so performance is visible and improvable.

Response time and follow-up completion

This is supported by the “Manage their follow-up better” section: the page explains that you can associate leads with CRM activities, use milestones and task lists, and see leads represented across phases “from lead to reactivation” so you can find out if lead follow-up is completed. In short: it’s about making sure follow-up happens and doesn’t get missed.

Conversion between stages (Lead → Appt → Sale)

This is supported by the page’s emphasis on pipeline performance and outcomes, especially “Track success and failure of pipeline follow-up” and the Store Traffic Tracker tabs like Close Rate, # of Sales, Opportunities, Average Sale, $ Per Guest. The message is that the pipeline reveals where opportunities succeed or fail—and tracking those results helps teams improve how the pipeline is working.

Rep activity and pipeline health

This is supported by the Opportunities and pipeline descriptions on the page: Opportunities “empowers salespeople to forecast deals, set custom phases, and track with…graphs and charts,” while the pipeline “tells a story” about how well the process is working. Practically, this means managers can look at activity and results inside the pipeline/opportunities view to understand whether the pipeline is healthy (moving) or unhealthy (stalling/failing).

Tools that Help You Close

Everything your team needs to move a deal forward—appointments, signatures, mobile follow-up, and call notes in one place.

A strong selling pipeline is the backbone of consistent revenue growth. It organizes leads, tracks progress, and helps teams prioritize high-potential opportunities. By clearly visualizing each stage—from initial contact to closing—sales teams can stay focused, reduce drop-offs, and accelerate conversions. A well-managed pipeline means fewer surprises, better forecasting, and more deals won. Want predictable sales? Start with a powerful pipeline.

success-rate

Track success and failure of pipeline follow-up

Your sales pipeline tells a story—and the success or failure rate of opportunities reveals how well it’s working. High failure rates often point to weak lead qualification or poor follow-up, while strong win rates signal a healthy, focused process. Tracking this metric helps teams refine their approach, prioritize better, and close more deals with less effort. It’s not just a number—it’s your growth indicator.

Automatically, trigger follow-up messages

Through workflow automation, you can trigger emails and text messages to remind salespeople to follow-up and to keep in touch with customers. Use this for communications such as: product add-ons, protection reminders, loyalty clubs, after sale thank you, after delivery pictures, past purchase touch-base and next purchase ideas.

Selling workflows by lead type

Telephone, chat, web inquiry, social media, in store, appointment

When a non-physical lead reaches out to you, that can be put into your sales funnel so you can be more productive and get better results. However, the lead come is, they are tracked. All communications with the lead are automatically recorded. Once an action is determined, either an appointment with a salesperson, a sale or some additional follow-up, communications and notifications are automatically triggered. It is proven that handling non-physical leads better creates much higher close rates, greater average sales, and incremental sales volume.

You save time and get more done when you implement professional workflows into your sales and marketing strategies.

Automated email and text follow-up

Your customers communicate in a variety of ways. Through pre-created email or text messages you can trigger professional communications. This can be used for past purchase follow-up, next purchase ideas, related purchases, private sale invites, or anything that you can imagine. This saves your people time and puts more customers back into your sales funnel.
