Most sales teams think they need more headcount when they really need better automation. Here are the 5 workflows that will transform your CRM from a contact database into a revenue engine.

1. Lead Routing & Assignment

Stop manually assigning leads. Set up rules based on territory, deal size, or round-robin to ensure every lead gets immediate attention.

2. Follow-up Reminders

The fortune is in the follow-up. Automate reminders when contacts go cold or deals stall.

3. Deal Stage Automation

When a deal moves to 'Proposal Sent', automatically create a follow-up task for 3 days later.

4. Email Sequences

Nurture leads with automated email sequences based on their behavior and stage.

5. Data Enrichment

Automatically pull company data from external sources when a new contact is created.
