Looking to optimise your sales pipeline and maintain business efficiency? Priorities can assist.
Begin by setting up your pipeline. Adjust the first list to feature projects with clients in preliminary talks. This could be initial discussions about a tender or a preliminary meeting with a potential client. Any early-stage business discussions belong in this column.
Make a second list for jobs you're actively pitching or need to provide quotes for. This assists in maintaining a clear view of your sales efforts and tracking emerging business opportunities.
You can now add a third column for jobs that are awaiting approval.
Your sales pipeline is now more streamlined, courtesy of Priorities in Streamtime. The advantage? Immediate action can be taken directly from Priorities.
Need to draft a quote or invoice? Simply turn the card and proceed. Looking to set a reminder for sending an email or a proposal on Wednesday? That's possible as well. With Priorities, the range of options is expansive.
π So go ahead and give it a try! Get your sales pipeline in order with Priorities and watch your business thrive.
π©πΎβπΌ Responsible for the money?
Managing finances can be challenging, but Priorities in Streamtime simplifies the process. Use Priorities to monitor jobs that require invoicing, are pending payment, or are overdue. Set up a list for each category and reposition tasks to the appropriate column as payments are received.
With Priorities, overseeing the financial health of your business becomes straightforward. Consolidate your invoices, payments, and unsettled debts in one centralised location. One of the main advantages is the ability to act directly from Priorities. For instance, once an invoice is settled, transfer it to the "paid" column. If a payment becomes overdue, shift it to the "overdue" column.
Eradicate the hassle of finance management and embrace a streamlined workflow with Priorities in Streamtime. Test it for yourself and observe the efficiency it brings.
π§πΌββοΈ Project Manager?
Maintaining a clear head in a bustling work environment is essential. With Priorities in Streamtime, achieving this becomes simpler. Taking a moment to categorise jobs based on their stages can make work more manageable. Priorities provides a platform for this kind of organisation.
During the design phase for Priorities, we collaborated with Studio Badu. They had a distinct workflow for projects progressing through their studio: Pipeline/Quoting, Approved Quotes, In Process, Feedback and Revisions, Production, and Completed.
Pipeline / quoting > Approved quotes > In Process > Feedback and Revisions > Production > Completed
Using Priorities, lists, and cards, Studio Badu could replicate this workflow within Streamtime, eliminating the need to navigate through multiple systems. Everything is consolidated in one location.
So, for better task and workflow management, consider giving Priorities a try. There's a noticeable ease when all is structured. Experience the utility of Priorities and see the benefits firsthand.
