Sales pipelines and ad funnels for chat leads

Every enquiry becomes a deal you can follow from first message to won or lost, on stages you name yourself. The overview tells you which deals need you this week, and Ad Funnels shows what one ad's leads turned into.

Dragged to Negotiation, and the ad account hears about it

The Sales Pipeline board: Proposal Sent holds 6 deals worth PKR 312,000 and Negotiation 4 worth PKR 268,500. Sara is dragging the Arif Textiles corporate grooming deal, worth PKR 140,000, into Negotiation.
Two pipeline tiles: PKR 1,284,500 in open deals and a 31% win rate.

One request, start to finish

Monday morning: which deals need you this week

The pipeline overview for the last 30 days: PKR 1,284,500 in open deals, PKR 412,350 weighted by stage, 37 open deals, and a 31% win rate from 18 won and 40 lost.
Worklists name the deals that need action: the Arif Textiles corporate grooming deal worth PKR 140,000 is due on Thursday, Mehak Javed's PKR 85,000 bridal package has not moved for 17 days, and 3 deals have no owner.
On the board, Sara drags the Arif Textiles deal from Proposal Sent to Negotiation, which clears its overdue mark. Each column shows its count and total value: Proposal Sent 6 deals worth PKR 312,000, Negotiation 4 worth PKR 268,500.
Ad Funnels follows one Instagram ad through the same stages: 83 leads, 77 on the pipeline, 41 qualified, 22 sent a proposal, 13 in negotiation, 9 won worth PKR 612,500, with 11 disqualified. Of the 83, 9 were hot.

01: YOUR STAGES

Stages that match how you actually sell

A salon's bridal enquiry and a corporate grooming contract don't move the same way. Every account starts with a Sales Pipeline of five stages: New Lead, Qualified, Proposal Sent, Negotiation and Won. Rename it, add stages, drag them into order and give each one of ten colours. Then add more pipelines, each with its own stages and board.

  • Drop-off stages

    Mark a stage as a drop-off, such as Disqualified or No show. Ad Funnels shows drop-offs beside the step they follow, so you can see where leads fall out.

  • Your currency, per deal if needed

    Values show in your account's default currency, and any deal can carry its own.

  • Safe edits

    A stage that still holds deals can't be deleted, and the button tells you why.

  • New leads can start as deals

    If you switch it on, every new lead, or only leads from an ad, opens a deal in the pipeline and starting stage you choose the moment they first message.

The Sales Pipeline stage editor with New Lead, Qualified, Proposal Sent, Negotiation and Won, each with its own colour, Disqualified marked as a drop-off, a second pipeline called Corporate clients, and a deal valued in AED while the account currency is PKR.

02: THE BOARD

Drag deals forward, or work them from a table

The board is where most teams live. Drag a deal between stages with the mouse or the keyboard. Each stage shows its count and total value, and you can collapse the stages you're not working on. Add a deal straight into any stage. Cards show the title, contact, value, owner and an overdue mark.

The deals table lists the same deals, sortable by title, stage, value, status, owner, expected close date and last update. Board and table share one set of filters: search, Open, Closed or All with live counts, and owner, including Unassigned.

  • The deal editor

    Title, contact, stage, value, currency, expected close date, owner and notes, with the weighted value shown beside the amount.

  • Won, lost, reopened

    Mark a deal won or lost, reopen it, or delete it after a confirmation. Closed deals keep their history in a separate panel.

  • Sensible defaults

    The board opens on Open deals so it stays a working view. The table opens on All so nothing is hidden when you are checking history. Collapsed stages stay collapsed for that pipeline.

The result is a board your whole team trusts. When Sara drags a deal on Monday, the owner sees it on the overview, the ad account can hear about it, and nobody keeps a second list on the side.

03: OVERVIEW

The deals that need you, by name

A board full of cards doesn't tell you where to start. The overview does. Four tiles show open pipeline value, weighted value, open deals and win rate, and each opens the deals behind it.

  • Weighted value

    Each open deal's value multiplied by its stage's likelihood, from about 10% at the first stage to 90% near the end and 100% at the last. Lost deals are left out.

  • Win rate

    Won deals divided by won plus lost, in the date range you pick.

  • Charts

    Open value by stage, the stage funnel, won against lost over time, and a donut of open deals by stage.

  • Worklists

    Closing or overdue (due within 7 days or already past), going stale (untouched for 14 days or more) and unassigned. Each names the deals so someone can act today.

Start the week here. Give the stale deals to whoever owns them, assign the deals nobody has, and call the ones closing this week before they slip. The same open value and a stage donut also sit on the main dashboard, so the owner sees the pipeline without opening it.

The pipeline overview for the last 30 days: PKR 1,284,500 open, PKR 412,350 weighted by stage, 37 open deals and a 31% win rate from 18 won and 40 lost.
Worklists: the Arif Textiles corporate grooming deal, PKR 140,000, is due on Thursday; Mehak Javed's PKR 85,000 bridal package has sat in Proposal Sent for 17 days; 3 deals have no owner.

04: AD FUNNELS

Follow one ad all the way to revenue

Ad dashboards stop at the click. Ad Funnels picks up there. Choose a date range and an ad, and see its leads move through the same stages your team uses, drawn as a funnel. It works for every industry.

The ad, up front

Ads are named by the first real line of their own text, with where they ran, the last digits of the ad ID and the lead count. The page opens with the ad itself: platforms, the channel leads arrived on, the full ad ID and its full text.

What it became

Leads from the ad (and how many aren't on the pipeline yet), how many reached the last stage, deals won, lost and open, revenue won, lead-to-won rate and average won deal.

Honest bands

Each band shows its count, its share of all leads and its share of the stage above. A lead counts at a stage once any of its deals reaches it or a later one, so a skipped stage still counts as passed.

Lead quality

With lead labelling on, each band and drop-off shows how many leads were hot, warm, cold, spam or job enquiries, or not yet labelled.

The pipeline is picked from the data, and you can switch it if an ad's leads land on more than one. Read side by side, two ads with the same lead count can tell very different stories: one fills New Lead and stops, the other reaches Won. That is the ad to give more money.

Revenue is credited to the first ad a customer clicked, the same rule the ad report uses.

05: FROM THE CHAT

Move the deal without leaving the conversation

When a deal moves forward in a chat, your team shouldn't have to open the board to record it. The inbox contact panel lists every deal the customer has, grouped by pipeline, with a stage dropdown. Changing it moves the deal exactly as dragging the card does, so ad reporting, AI triggers and webhooks all still fire.

  • The AI suggests the next stage

    When the chat shows the customer has moved on, the lead panel suggests the next stage with Apply and Dismiss.

  • The assistant can move deals too

    With the deal tools switched on, the assistant updates deals as the conversation moves.

  • A stage move can start a job

    A deal moving to a new stage can wake an AI trigger, for example to send a proposal follow-up.

  • Your ad accounts hear about it

    Stage changes, wins and losses can be reported to Meta and Google, pipeline by pipeline and stage by stage, once you switch it on.

How ad tracking works

In the chat's contact panel, Ayesha Malik's Hydrafacial deal worth PKR 6,500 is moved from Visit booked to Won with the stage dropdown, exactly as dragging it on the board would.
Because the move counts like a drag on the board, the stage change is reported to Meta Ads with the deal value.

The honest part

What it won't do

  • Convert currencies

    Deals won in more than one currency are added up as they are, and a note says so.

  • Show stage history from before 28 Sep 2026

    Older deals start at the stage they were in on that date.

  • Let you set a probability per stage

    Weighted value follows stage position.

  • Delete a stage that holds deals

    Move the deals first.

  • Turn imported contacts into deals

    Contacts added by hand or imported never open a deal by themselves, and a contact with an open deal in that pipeline is left alone.

  • Split revenue across ads

    It goes to the first ad the customer clicked.

Questions about pipelines

Asked by people who run sales

Can I have separate pipelines for different services?

Yes. Create as many as you need, each with its own stages, colours and board. You can even run one pipeline per ad platform.

How is weighted value worked out?

Each open deal's value is multiplied by its stage's likelihood, which rises from about 10% at the first stage to 100% at the last. Lost deals are left out.

Can deals be created automatically from new chats?

Yes, if you switch it on. Every new lead, or only leads from ads, opens a deal in the pipeline and stage you choose when they first message.

What if we sell in more than one currency?

Set an account default and give any deal its own currency. Totals of mixed currencies are added as they are, never converted, with a note.

Does Ad Funnels work for my industry?

Yes. Ad Funnels works for every industry, on the stages of whichever pipeline the ad's leads land on.

Can other software move deals?

Yes. The API can list pipelines and create, move, win, lose and reopen deals, and deal events can be sent to your other systems.
