GreeneStep Lead to Cash Process
Contact to Lead:
When potential customers’ new inquiries come through a contact form or other modes, the Sales Rep fills out Lead details, acquiring customer information. Leads from various channels like social media, company websites, email, or phone calls are imported into GreeneStep CRM. Profiling data are auto-populated to assist the Sales Rep in reaching out accordingly.
Lead to Opportunity:
Sales Reps review the prospects’ information, classify, and assess them based on the company’s Marketing Qualified Leads (MQL) and Sales Qualified Leads (SQL) criteria. They contact customers to build relationships and discover their needs, thereby turning the lead into a sales opportunity.
Opportunity to Quote:
Proposals and quotations are created to track the sales pipeline. The Sales Rep can generate sales quotations, which can be negotiated with the customer. The system streamlines the process by auto-populating data across forms.
Quote to Order:
When the customer is ready to order, the Sales Rep can create a sales order directly from the lead or convert a sales quotation. The data defaults from one screen to the next, automatically populating necessary sections, including item search, quantity, price, tax calculations, and delivery date. Related accessories and substitute items can also be recommended for upselling.
Order to Cash:
The Sales Order is sent to the Warehouse for fulfilment. The Warehouse team picks, packs, and ships the order, and an email notification is sent to the customer upon shipment confirmation. The Sales Invoice is then generated and sent to the customer via email. Once the customer makes a payment, it is applied and reconciled in the system.
