To ensure that steps in the sales process are clear and adhered to by the new inside sales team, the consultant should recommend creating a Path on the Opportunity object. Salesforce Path provides a visual representation of the stages in a business process. It allows administrators to define key fields, guidance for success, and specific steps that need to be completed at each stage. This feature is ideal for providing clear guidelines, support materials, and coaching tips for each step of the sales process, helping sales teams stay on track and adhere to best practices.
