You can quickly create tasks to keep track of important actions you have to take regarding an ongoing deal, a company, or a contact. You can associate them with existing or new deals, companies, or contacts for better management.
You can also choose to receive reminders when a task is due or even automatically create tasks based on the trigger of your choice.
Good to know
- You can enable task reminders from your Notifications setting or when creating a task. To learn more about these notifications, check our dedicated article Set up your sales notifications.
- With Marketing Automation, you can automatically create tasks based on the trigger of your choice (e.g. after a contact submits a form or is added to a list). To learn more, check our dedicated article Create an automation to automatically create tasks.
