The foundational pipeline template for any B2B sales team. Includes 7 configurable stages from Prospecting to Closed Won, with default win probabilities at each stage for weighted pipeline forecasting. Built-in deal aging alerts notify reps when opportunities stall, and automated stage progression rules keep your pipeline clean. Each stage ships with a default probability, an average-days benchmark, and a recommended next action, so a new rep can read the board and know exactly what to do with every deal. The Excel and CSV versions mirror the CRM layout column-for-column, which means you can start in a spreadsheet today and import the same file into HelloGrowthCRM later without remapping a single field. Most teams that adopt this template report two immediate wins: the Monday pipeline meeting gets shorter because stage definitions stop being debated, and the weighted forecast finally matches what actually closes at quarter end.
Sales teams without a structured pipeline lose deals in the cracks, can't forecast accurately, and waste time on manual CRM hygiene.
