Multiple Sales Pipeline - Word of the day #107

Every business has a unique sales process. If you are selling different products or targeting different types of markets, multiple pipelines can help you capture each deal's journey.

With Multiple Sales Pipelines, you can accurately track multiple sales workflows for all of your products and markets. This feature helps us in defining the sales process for every deal.

For instance, let's say Zylker Cars is a car dealership company that has different sales processes for reselling used cars, selling new cars, and providing car servicing. Some of the basic sales stages will be similar across these three processes, but there will also be significant differences. The table below shows the different deal stages for each process:

New Cars	Used Cars	Service Requests
Gathering requirements	Show available models	Request analysis
Test drives and car selection	Test drives and car selection	Repair process (ongoing)
Price quote	Price quote	Quality check and test drive
Negotiation	Negotiation	Bill generation
Closed won/lost	Closed won/lost	Service request/closed

As every process is different, putting all the deals through a single pipeline will not give a clear understanding of their progress. Therefore, Zylker Cars needs to create multiple sales pipelines to more accurately show how a deal is progressing.

Here's a knowledge-base article on creating Multiple Sales Pipeline.
