CRM - Odoo App Spotlight

Transform Your Sales Operations with Odoo CRM

One of the most important aspects of any business is getting people interested in your products/services and then converting those interested leads into customers. Of course, not everyone is going to discover your business at the same time, and there will be variances between how long it takes and how much effort is required to convert them into a paying customer. So, how does someone manage all these potential customers? Well you've probably read the title already... Odoo has a solution specifically designed for this; its Customer Relationship Manager (CRM) app. Odoo CRM is designed to help businesses boost sales performance through better lead management, communication, campaign attribution, and pipeline visibility.

Harness the Predictive Power of Odoo CRM

Odoo CRM helps you organize and track all your sales activity, including leads, opportunities, losses/successes, and more. From the CRM app, you can view and manage all the individuals you have in your sales pipeline and the stage of the pipeline they are in. In addition to having all this data centralized, the CRM app can also take that data and utilize it for predictive lead scoring to help you monitor how likely it is for any prospect to convert to a customer. And, of course, the CRM integrates with other Odoo apps, such as Email Marketing and the Website app, allowing you to automate the creation of leads, sending promotional emails, display personalized website content, and more!

Optimize Team Performance with Sales Team Management

Furthermore, the Odoo CRM can also help you manage your sales teams. Employees can be organized into sales teams with a team leader, and these teams can be assigned a unique email alias to automatically create leads/opportunities whenever a message is sent to them. Sales teams are each given their own personalized dashboard to keep track of all the leads/opportunities assigned to them. There is even a Commissions manager you can enable!

Gain Insights with Advanced Reporting

Of course, having all this data is only truly helpful if you are able to analyze it, and Odoo can help you with that as well. Odoo CRM offers native reporting features, including analysis of your sales pipeline, expected revenue reports, and forecast reports. And with Odoo's high degree of customization, your reports can be tailored to your liking with just a bit of effort—or a quick session with the Lighthouse development team!
