Introduction
Every sales organization relies on a steady flow of qualified leads to drive revenue. However, not every lead that enters the system is worth pursuing. One of the biggest challenges sellers face is knowing which leads deserve their time and which ones don't.
Imagine you're a seller at Contoso Coffee, a company that sells commercial coffee equipment and bean subscriptions to mid-size hospitality and retail organizations. After a recent product announcement, your team receives dozens of new leads. Some are strong prospects with genuine interest, while others are casual visitors who filled out a form out of curiosity. Without a structured approach, you might spend equal time on every lead, regardless of how likely it is to convert. Some leads slip through the cracks when no one follows up in time. Others move to sales before they're truly ready.
Dynamics 365 Sales provides the tools and AI features that solve this problem. In this module, you explore the lead-to-opportunity process and learn how predictive lead scoring, the work list, and sequences keep sellers organized. You discover how the Sales Qualification Agent and Sales Research Agent automate early qualification and enrich lead records with actionable intelligence. You also examine how Sales in Microsoft 365 Copilot, the Sales mobile app, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator extend selling capabilities. These tools help sellers engage with customers across every channel and location.
By the end of this module, you can describe the key features in Dynamics 365 Sales that support lead qualification, prospecting, and seller productivity.
