For example, \u2018\u2019engaged\u2019\u2019, \u2018\u2019schedule demo\u2019\u2019, \u2018\u2019follow up\u2019\u2019, etc.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>2.<\/strong> Then, when you receive an email form a prospect that\u2019s interested in your service or a product, you simply add the prospect to your list. You can do this directly from your email inbox, by clicking the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.loom.com\/share\/3cb98b6b0b414bb0851215a667526c53\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u2018\u2019Add as a task\u2019\u2019<\/a><\/strong> button.<\/p>\n<p>When you get back to Yanado, you\u2019ll see that your first status has a new task attached \u2013 the one you\u2019ve just created from your email!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>3.<\/strong> Now you can open a task and set the date on which you\u2019ll contact your prospect. Hopefully, you\u2019ll receive new prospects on a daily basis, so you might mismatch the dates or even forget some. But, Yanado won\u2019t!<\/p>\n<p>After you set the due date, you will have an option to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/yanado.com\/blog\/how-to-set-task-reminders-in-yanado\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">add a reminder<\/a><\/strong>. Customized, predefined or default, it\u2019s up to you. Also, you can choose the type of notification you would like to get.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>4.<\/strong> You can <strong>contact your prospect directly<\/strong> from Yanado, by clicking the little envelope icon at the bottom of the task. No need to search for it in your crowded inbox!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>5.<\/strong> After you\u2019ve successfully contacted the prospect, you should <strong>schedule a demo<\/strong>. Just drag and drop the task to the \u2018\u2019schedule demo\u2019\u2019 status. So the status becomes a big reminder itself!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>6.<\/strong> Once you\u2019ve had the demo scheduled, you can move this task to the <strong>\u2018\u2019demo scheduled\u2019\u2019<\/strong> status. Then you can change the due date, so it can match the date of the demo itself. Once again you\u2019ll have your reminders set and Yanado won\u2019t forget!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>7.<\/strong> If you close the deal on the spot, you can move your task to the <strong>\u2018\u2019won\u2019\u2019<\/strong> status. Hopefully, the most crowded of them all on your list!<\/p>\n<p>And if you don\u2019t, but the prospect is still interested, you can move your task to the \u2018\u2019follow up\u2019\u2019 status until the deal is closed.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there\u2019s a \u2018\u2019lost\u2019\u2019 status at the end of your list, for the deals you didn\u2019t win. But, let\u2019s leave it empty in this tutorial and hope it stays like that on each and every of your Sales pipeline lists!<\/p>\n<p>So, let\u2019s hit to Yanado and practice &amp; apply what you\u2019ve just learned.
