Your enterprise organization (multi-location org) will have a methodology they use to advance an opp through the sales cycle. It will generally coincide with:
Vet & outreach – Once you have vet and outreach you kick it into Detect
Discovery call – Once you have a discovery call, you then kick it into Identify
Product call – Once you have a Product Call, you then kick it into Clarify
Proposal – Once you have a proposal and an agreement is out you then kick it into Clarify Agreement Out (you will have to add product as well as the correct timeline for product and start date)
Closing & onboarding – Once you have a signed PO you can put it into Closed Won
At the stage of proposal, you are going to need to add pricing to the opportunity so that management can adequately see forecasting for the opportunities that you are working on. This means adding pricing in SFDC and adding it to the opp.
