In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through the quick and easy process of creating a new deal in Pipedrive. We’ll skip the unnecessary details and provide a straightforward guide to help you get started quickly. Let’s dive in! 
 
Step 1

Navigate app.pipedrive.com/deals to and sign into your Pipedrive account. 

Step 2

Once signed in click on the $ sign in the left menu if you didn’t already land on the deal Pipeline, Click “+Deal” to create a brand new deal.  

Step 3

Add the first and last name of your customer that you would like to create a new deal for. 

Step 4

Under organisation enter the company name that you are adding the new deal with, if the new deal is just a private person or not a company go ahead and leave this field blank. 

Step 5

Modify your deal title to something memorable, like the customer first & last name and product or service that you are looking to sell them. This makes it easier to identify later on when you have multiple deals on your Pipeline. 

Step 6

Enter a value for the deal or click “add products” to select from products you’ve already added to Pipedrive. 

Step 7

Next select your Pipeline that you would the new deal to be added to, only required if you have more than one Pipeline. 

Step 8

I love adding labels to new deals, it makes it much easier to filter customers and deals later, you can even use this label to send specific emails to people with a specific label later on through Pipedrive campaigns.  

Step 9

Select the applicable label or create a new one by clicking on Add new label. 

Step 10

It’s a create habit to add an expected close date, this doesn’t have to be a firm date just a rough date of when you think the new deal will be closed by it helps train Pipedrive. 

Step 11

Select the close date from the calendar. 

Step 12

This is deal visibility, leaving it on item owner will mean that only you or the person that owns the deal will be able to see this deal. 

Step 13

Selecting all users will allow everyone in your Pipedrive team to see this deal. This is great should a team member need to help the deal owner, or is away sick, someone else can continue with the deal. 

Step 14

Enter the contacts phone number 

Step 15

Enter the contacts email address 

Step 16

This is an optional field, don’t worry if you don’t see this, in our demo account we categorise organisations by the sector they work in.
