Assigning tasks
Assign tasks to your team members from the Tasks section on the side menu.
Once assigned a task, a team member will receive an email notification.
You can also modify pipeline stages, owners, priority, value, and occurrence fields associated with the opportunity, in the "Opportunities" section.
Opportunity status update - the status will be synced to the lead in the campaign if the opportunity was created automatically when the lead became interested.

Update any relevant info such as the contact's name, contact information, and value, or add a new variable in the Contacts section, by clicking on the pencil icon.
