Best Practices
Data & Property Management
Keep dropdown values short and unambiguous ("ISO 9001", not "ISO 9001 certified"). Review property pick‑lists quarterly; deprecate unused values to avoid segmentation bloat.
Pipeline Governance
Map ONE opportunity type to ONE pipeline—e.g., never mix new‑logo deals into the renewal pipeline. Set strict entry/exit criteria on each stage and train reps to update stages during daily stand‑ups.
Workflow Hygiene
Use event or property‑change triggers rather than broad list enrollment to avoid accidental bulk actions.
Re-enrollment Strategy
Switch on re‑enrollment only where the same record truly needs repeat treatment (e.g., "Stale Deal").
List & Segmentation Strategy
Layer association‑label filters (e.g., "Primary Supplier") to target only the buying centre that matters.
Reporting & Optimization
Create funnel reports for each pipeline to spot stage‑to‑stage drop‑offs.
Track Cycle Time Metrics
Track "RFQ Submission → Quotation Sent" cycle time as a leading indicator of future bookings.
Adoption & Change Management
Run a 2‑hour kickoff with sales, applications engineering and CS teams to define ownership rules.
Pilot Before Rollout
Pilot with one business unit for 30 days, gather feedback, then roll out globally with a playbook.
