Prysm Note for sales pipeline
Most small teams lose deals to silence rather than competition. A pipeline that makes the next step and the last contact visible is enough to prevent most of that, without a dedicated CRM.
What matters here
- One list per stage
- A task per lead with the next step
- Last contact recorded in the note
- A weekly review of stalled leads
- A follow up date on every proposal
Stages
Three or four stages are enough: new, talking, proposal, closed. More stages create reporting work without changing what anyone does next.
The next step
Every lead has one dated next action. If the next step is wait, the date is when to check, not a vague someday.
The weekly review
Look at what has not moved in two weeks. That list is the actual pipeline, and it is usually shorter than the optimistic version.
