Not sure what a sales funnel is?
It can vary depending on what you’re selling. Standard stages generally include:

  • Awareness
  • Interaction
  • Interest
  • Evaluation
  • Decision

A robust sales funnel software should store every single piece of sales-related information and data in one central place and allow users to track prospects through all stages.

Association-specific sales funnel software should allow you to:

  • monetize and track sales opportunities
  • create and track proposals
  • forecast revenue
  • manage and process member applications
  • track every piece of communication about each sales opportunity
  • create tasks and timelines, complete with follow-up reminders
  • run comprehensive reports so you can forecast your close rate and revenue
  • provide data on probability, sales stage, and lead source – all with a single system

Keeping all data and information in one place instead of having to rely on multiple systems prevents little details from easily fall through the cracks.
