Create productive habits with the help of effective sales software. This will increase your likelihood of retaining your customers. How will it help you? They automate the way you follow up with your customers. They also track contracts, offers, products, and more.

Cleaning your funnel should be part of your routine. It's better to do it once a week or every day rather than once a month. This way, you'll avoid disorganization and help you maintain productive habits.

Olivia Henkel, sales manager at Grovo, a New York-based botim database learning technology company, suggests asking yourself the following questions for good funnel management habits:

Did I record the activity in my CRM?
Did I mark my follow-up on the calendar?
Are all stages and categories configured correctly in the system?
How long has this opportunity been in my sales funnel?
5. Align your funnel steps with your prospects

As you gain more experience in your industry, you'll begin to learn certain details. For example, that each customer must complete certain tasks in order to make a purchase.

In many cases, this process can be delaying the customer's closing. You need to identify the steps your customer needs to take to close the deal. Also, if you align it with your sales process, everything will be much easier.

It's important to align your sales cycle with the stages of your customer's buying cycle. This way, you'll be able to more clearly identify when a prospect has stalled.
