Pipeline stage

A named step a lead passes through on the way to becoming a client or being lost.

Typical stages are new, contacted, qualified, proposal sent, negotiating, won and lost. Each stage should have a one-line rule for when a lead enters it. Fewer stages with clear rules work better than many vague ones.
