2. INTRODUCTION
In any business organization, sales is the department that generates revenue and the
basic goal of the sales team is promote the sales and increase the contribute to the profits on
one hand and satisfaction to the customer on the other hand. They are always a spine of an
organization.

ďź Make and Keep the network with customers.
ďź Find good and best Markets.
ďź Good listeners.
ďź Building and maintaining relationship with customer.
ďź Correct and healthy follow up.

4. When we get a lead we can convert it into an opportunity and after traveling different
stages, we won that opportunity and make it as a quotation. We sent that quotation
and client satisfied with the amount we quote. Then sales happens very smoothly.
When we are using Odoo we can go through this workflow.
If the clients are not satisfied with the amount we quote. Then what we do? The point
is very simple. Negotiation. A good salesman is good at negotiating almost anything.
After the negotiation we edit the quotation and resent it to the clients. This process is
run until a healthy quote will approve by the client. Odoo sales allow you to edit the
quote in quotation after sent it to the customer. And resent it to the customer.

state. That is before confirm the quotation we need to fix the amount in
