12. Scope Changes
In week 8, we realized that Planet Technology uses MailChimp application for campaign marketing/email
marketing. Our team took an extra step to find out the differences between MailChimp and Outlook features.
In week 7, we realized that Planet Technology customer’s data need to be imported into CRM as part of sales
process. However, when we went back to the organization for their customer data we got below response from
both the CTO of the company and the sales team. They recommended to create sample data as part of
configuration.
“ We do not have any particular customer data as our sales team stores data on their desktop or paper”
14. Leads
The Lead entity is often thought of as a temporary entity. As the sales process progresses, a lead is ideally
converted to a Contacts, Account, and/or Opportunity. This conversion represents that a contact or
organization is no longer just a lead, but one which you are likely to do business with. The length of time your
lead remains a lead is dependent on how the sales cycle works within your organization.
15. Information to include
>> Topic
>> Basic Contact Information
>> Lead source
>> Status Reason/Lead Stage
16. Qualify / Disqualify Lead
>> When a lead is determined as a good candidate
for doing business with, it is qualified. The lead will
then into a Contact, Account, or Opportunity or a
combination of these three record types.
>> When a lead is determined as not good candidate
to do business with, it can be disqualified.
If the record is qualified, the lead is converted into
either an Account, Contact, or Opportunity record,
or a combination of those record types.
17. Opportunities
>> Potential Customer: Depending on
your business model, opportunities
can either be associated with a contact
or an account. Associating an
opportunity with the appropriate
customer allows organizations to track
the potential, won, and lost business
with specific customers.
Opportunities have quite a few fields out-of-the-box, but most organizations use these core fields to indicate
the progress of an opportunity.
18. Information to Include
>> TOPIC
>> CONTACT
>> ACCOUNT
>> PURCHASE TIMEFRAME
>> IDENTIFY DECISION MAKER
>> CAPTURE SUMMARY
>> STAKEHOLDERS
>> CURRENT BILL PROVIDED
>> TOTAL CURRENT BILL
>> ESTIMATED BUDGET
This opens a new opportunity form, and then fill out the appropriate data. The first stage of opportunity is
Qualify Stage, where a customer is qualified based on business rules.
19. Qualify Stage
>> CUSTOMER NEED
>> PROPOSED SOLUTION
>> IDENTIFY STAKEHOLDERS
>> IDENTIFY COMPETITORS
Once “Qualify” stage is complete, click on “Next Stage” and this moves sales process to the next stage
“Develop”. Enter appropriate data.
20. Develop Stage

communication.
28. Cases
>> Cases are used to track the process from the initial intake of an incident, tracking the details throughout the
remediation process, and through final resolution.
30. Resolve Case
>> Resolving a case means that the case is complete, which may include answering a question, solving a problem
or completing a request.
31. Add Case To Queue
>> Queues share cases or activities as a group until these are taken out of the queue, or accepted, by a customer
service representative (CSR) who assumes responsibility for handling them.

for multiple customers.
