Create a Lead

Leads are potential customers or contacts who have shown interest in your product or service but have not yet been qualified or converted into a deal. The Lead module in Taskip helps you capture, organize, and manage these prospects efficiently to improve conversion rates and streamline your sales pipeline.

Overview

The Create Lead feature allows users to manually add a new potential client into the system. Each lead can later be nurtured, qualified, and converted into a deal within the sales pipeline.

This module is designed to:

  • Centralize all incoming prospects
  • Track engagement and interaction history
  • Improve follow-up efficiency
  • Support conversion into deals

How It Works

Taskip’s lead management system provides a structured workflow:

  1. Capture a lead from manual entry or external sources
  2. Assign ownership to a team member
  3. Categorize by status, source, and value
  4. Track interactions and updates
  5. Convert qualified leads into deals

This ensures no potential customer is lost or unmanaged.

To access lead management:

  1. Go to Taskip Main Menu
  2. Click Leads
  3. You will be directed to the Lead List Page where you can:
    • View all leads
    • Filter by status, source, or owner
    • Search and manage lead records
    • Create new leads
