Updated over a week ago

An opportunity type determines what kind of sales opportunity you are logging. There are two opportunity types available in the stock version of Method:

  • New business: Business with a new customer or lead.

  • Existing business: New business with an existing customer.

But the whole point of Method is to tailor your CRM experience to your business practices, so we’ve included an option to create a new opportunity type. The following steps will show you how to create and edit opportunity types.

Note: The add and edit screens are laid out the same way, so we will go through how to create a new type. You will need to go into an opportunity in order to manage an opportunity type.


Create / Edit an Opportunity Type

  1. From your Method dashboard click ⊕ New on your Opportunities App.

  2. This opens your New Opportunity screen. In the Type dropdown, click New/Edit Opportunity Type.
