How to create outlook signature

Today, we're going to look at how you can  get started with monday sales CRM, a CRM   that your sales team will actually want to use. monday sales CRM is a fully customizable dedicated   sales platform that requires absolutely  no coding. You can view all of your leads,   customer information, communications, deal  status, all in one centralized place. That   way nothing slips through the cracks. You can even analyze your sales processes   using real time data within  fully customizable dashboards.  Basically, if you're a business owner  or on a sales team, sales CRM helps   you manage the entire sales cycle. In this video, I partnered with monday   sales CRM to show you how you can use it  end-to-end, all the way from getting a new   lead all the way through closing that deal. Let's get started with how you can even get   monday sales CRM. To get started with monday sales  CRM, head to the following website. You can click   on the card in the top right-hand corner, and  I've also included a link down below in the   description. Using this link gives you an extended  30-day trial. Once you land on this website,   click on the button that says get started and you  don't have to provide any payment information.   Once you finish signing up for monday sales CRM,  you'll land here on the home screen. In the top   left-hand corner, you can see that we're currently  in monday sales CRM. In the top left-hand corner,   if you have multiple monday.com products,  when you click on the app launcher,   here you'll see all of your different installed  products. I also happen to have work management.   If you're interested in learning more about how  you can use work management in your organization,   be sure to check out the video down below in  the description. Over here, I'll click out of   this. Right down below, you'll see that I have a  workspace titled CRM, and within this workspace,   we have a number of different boards. I also  have a sales dashboard and at the very bottom,   there's also a getting started document.  Now, I want to track new franchises for   the Kevin Cookie Company and I think CRM will be  perfect for that. Over on the right-hand side,   I'll click on the three dots and here I can  rename this workspace. So let me remove CRM and   I'll type in the Kevin Cookie Company franchises. Also, I'll click on the three dots and I can also   change the icon, maybe choose a color that stands  out just a little bit more. Let me go with this   red color. That really does stand out. Now, I  was recently at a cookie convention, and yes,   they are amazing. You get to sample lots of  cookies, but best of all, I also met lots of   different potential franchisees or you could also  refer to them as leads, and I want to track all   of them with CRM. Over on the left-hand side, I  have a board titled leads. Let's click into that.   Within leads, you can add new potential customers,  or in my case, new franchisees for the Kevin   Cookie Company. Basically, people who want to open  a location of the Kevin Cookie Company and they'll   pay me money to do that. Like I've always said,  there is money in the cookie business. Now there   are a few different ways that you can add a new  lead. You could manually add a new lead. You could   simply click on this button right up above or you  could type directly into the table. You can also   have a customer proactively reach out via a form  that let's say you can put on your website. Right   up on top, you could click on form. Right down  below, you can also click on this dropdown on the   new lead button and you can bulk import new leads.  Let's say from a spreadsheet. Right up on top,   you can also integrate with third party providers  to get leads into monday.com. So again, there are   lots of different ways to add leads. To start out,  I just want to manually add a lead. So over here,   I'll click on this button titled new lead. This  has now added a new lead or row to my table down   below. And right here in the first column, I can  type in a name for the lead. Her name was Ginger   Snap, very friendly lady and she seemed very  serious about opening up a location of the Kevin   Cookie Company. In the next column, I can set the  status and when I click on that, I have all these   different options. So, once I contact her, I could  select this or once I qualify her here, I could   select this option. Down at the very bottom, I can  also edit all of these different labels to match   my needs, but for now I'm okay with the defaults,  so here I’ll select new lead. In the next column,   I have the option to move Ginger to contacts, but  I haven't yet qualified her, so for now I'm going   to leave her in leads. If we scroll over to the  right, that exposes a few more columns. Over here,   I could enter in the email address. I could  type in her title. She was fairly high within   her organization and over here, I'll type in the  company. She works with United cookies, one of the   leaders in the cookie industry. And lastly,  I could also type in her phone number. Now,   one of the great things about this view is I can  completely customize what it looks like. Say for   instance, you'd prefer to see the phone number  before company. I can simply press and hold on   this column and here I'll move it before company.  And there we have it. Now, I would also like to   include some notes or comments related to this  lead. That way the sales team knows that she was   very serious. Right up on top, I'll click on this  plus icon and here I have the option to add more   columns. Here we see all of the different core CRM  columns like the status or create a contact. Over   here, I could also turn it on so I can assign an  owner to this lead. And here, if I scroll down,   we also have the option of location and also  comments. And in a moment, I'll select comments,   but first let's also look at more columns, and  here you see all the other column types that you   can add to this table. So, you can truly make  this view your own. Here I'll go back to core   CRM and let me add comments. This is now added a  new column over on the right-hand side with lead   comments. Here I'll click into Ginger's row and  let me type in the comment. Again, she was very   excited about launching a new location and she  wanted to chat soon. I'll make sure to capture   that information and then I could click out  of that comment. Now that I've added a lead,   you can also group your leads. Right up on top,  this group is currently referred to as new leads,   but here if I click into that, I can also change  it. Now these are all the different leads that I   met at the cookie convention. So, I'll make sure  to call that out up above, so I have some context   of how I met these different leads. Down below,  I can also add another new group. I'll click on   that and that adds yet another new table. So maybe  I want a table to track all the different leads   from our website. So, I'll make sure to call that  group website. Now, of course, this table down at   the very bottom is just a little bit bare and  also empty. I want potential leads to be able   to reach out via our website. Up on top, I think  the perfect way to do that is to add a form to   the KevinCookieCompany.com site. So right up here,  I'll click on this. This now opens up a form that   I can place on my website or that I can share on  social media. And down below, I can see all these   different form questions. And one thing you might  notice is each one of these questions corresponds   with one of the columns in the table. This way,  if a lead comes in and they fill in their name,   they fill in their email address, that information  will feed directly into my table. So that'll make   it really easy to capture this information. But  one thing you might notice here is there's also   the question about the status and I don't want a  new lead to fill this information out. So, I need   to make a few modifications to this form. Right up  on top, let's click on edit form. This now opens   up a window where I can completely customize  what this form looks like. Right up on top,   I can upload a logo. Over on the right-hand side,  I could also add a background image or adjust the   color. I could change the layout, the typography.  Right here, I want to modify the title of this   form. I'll type in Kevin Cookie Company Franchise  Interest Form. And right down below, I could also   type in a description and here I can see all the  different questions on the form. Now I wanted to   hide the status question from potential leads.  I'll click on that and right down here, I could   click on this icon and that'll hide the question.  I think all these other questions look good,   so I’ll leave them as is. Right up on top, let's  click into customize and here we have a few other   options. You can customize the welcome screen,  the thank you screen, and down at the very bottom,   also the monday.com settings. And when I click  on that, I can configure what group all these   responses should go into. And remember, we created  a group for website. So here I'll select that.   Now, I think all these other settings look good.  So up on top, I'll click on publish and once it   publishes it, over here, I can now copy the link.  I'll click on copy link and I can now link to that   from the KevinCookieCompany.com website. In the  top right-hand corner, I’ll now close out of this   view and over on the left-hand side, let's go back  to the main table. Back on the main table. Look   at that. I've already gotten five new leads from  that form. That form is really paying off. Now,   of course, I want to start reaching out to some  of these new leads to see if I could start pushing   them down the sales pipeline. But to do that, I  need to connect my email address to monday sales   CRM. That way I can track all of my communications  and also conversations in just one place. Up on   top, let's click on these settings gear and right  here you see a category for my connections. I'll   click on add account. You can add either a Gmail  or an Outlook email address to monday sales CRM.   Now right down below, I already have an existing  account. I'll choose that and that's now been   added. Up on top, I'll close out of this view.  Back now on the main table, I want to reach out   to one of these leads to see if I can qualify her.  Right down here, we have Lila and she reached out   on our website. Now I'll simply click on the lead  and that opens up more details. Right over here,   I could see where she is currently in the  lead flow. So right now, she's just a new   lead. I haven't even attempted to contact her,  but that's about to change. So right down here,   let me click on new email. This opens up a new  email message over on the right-hand side. Up   on top, I'll type in the subject and down below  I'll type in the body text. You can even use AI   to help compose your message. I think this text  will convert very well. However, I think what   would make it even better is if I can personalize  this message. For example, if I called out Lila's   name right up here at the top. Luckily, I can use  different fields or columns from the table on the   leads page in this email message. Down below, we  have the option for inserting columns. I'll click   on that and here I see all the different columns.  So, for example, if I want to insert Lila's name,   I could click on item name. I can call out her  company name or maybe the comments that she asked   about. I could insert all those different fields  into this email message. I just want to call out   her name, so I'll click on item name and that  inserts a dynamic field at the top of the email.   This pulse.name will be replaced by her actual  name. That's the only column I want to use, so   I'll close out of this and right up on top, I'll  format it, so it looks good in the email message. I can envision that I end up using this same email  message with all of the other leads who reach out   through the website. Now, luckily, I could save  this as a template. In the bottom right-hand   corner, we have the option for templates and I'll  click on that and here I see that I don't yet have   any templates. Down at the bottom, I'll click on  save draft as new template and here I'll give it   a name. I would like to share it with everyone  in the organization. I'll select everyone and   then click on save. I think this email message  now looks very good. So, in the bottom left-hand   corner, I'll click on send. Now that I've sent  the message over here, I could see that it   hasn't been opened yet and here I can review the  text of the email that I sent to Lila. Hopefully   she responds back positively. Oop and look at  that. It looks like Lila has responded. Yes,   I would love to explore opening a franchise. Let's  meet. This outreach is off to a really good start.   Now, although I reached out to Lila directly  through monday sales CRM, I could also email   her directly through Outlook and all of those  communications will also be captured here. So,   this is my one stop shop for all communications  and correspondence with my leads. Now, because she   expressed interest, I would say this qualifies as  being qualified. So, in the top right-hand corner,   I'll click on qualified and here we see the  lead pipeline update and here it also shows   the status as qualified. Over here, I'll click on  this button to move her into contacts. In the top   right-hand corner, I’ll now close out of this view  by clicking on the X. Back here on the main leads   screen, if we look down at the website group,  you'll notice that Lila no longer shows up down   here and the reason why is I've now moved her onto  contacts. If I click into contacts over on the   left-hand side, here we see Lila now shows up as a  contact. Let's now go back to leads. That outreach   was so successful that I think I should probably  reach out to all these different website leads.   To do that, I could simply click on all these  check boxes next to all of the leads and down   at the very bottom, I have the option to mass mail  all of these different contacts. Let's try that.   This opens up a new email message and up on top, I  can see that it'll be sent to the four recipients   that I just selected. I want to use the same  email message that I sent to Lila and the good   thing is I saved that as a template. In the bottom  right-hand corner, let's click on templates and   there's that template. I’ll click on that and that  fills in the subject and the body of the email   message and right up here, I can see that dynamic  value that'll auto populate the name of the lead.   This now all looks good. So, in the bottom  left-hand corner, let's click on send. And just   like that, it's now sent out a personalized email  to every single one of my leads. I can click into   any one of the leads and here I can see a copy of  the message. Here we see the personalized name in   the message. That was so easy. Right up on top, I  can also check on the status. It looks like Owen   hasn't opened this email yet. However, I'm sure  that once he does, we'll get a positive response.   In the top right-hand corner, let's close out of  this view. Over on the left-hand side, let's now   click into the contacts board. And here I can see  all of the different primary contacts. We have   quite a few people that we're working with. Right  here, I see Lila Baker and this is the contact   that I just added. Over here, I see that she's  not currently assigned to an account. I'll click   on this and here I'll set it to Universal Cookies.  And I believe we had a few other contacts who also   work for Universal Cookies. Now over here, I could  hover over any one of these columns and here I can   sort the list. So that's one way I could look at  it. But I think probably what would be even easier   is if I filtered this view. Right over here, I'll  click on the three dots and here's the option to   filter. I'll click on that and let me filter by  accounts and let's set it to Universal Cookies.   Here, I'll click out of the filter and here,  yes, I see we have two contacts for this company,   Ben and Lila. Just like we saw earlier with the  leads board, you can also adjust these columns.   So over here, I can drag the column around and  put it in a position that I prefer. Also, if we go   over to the right-hand side, I can add additional  columns to this view. I'll click on this button   and here we have all these other column types that  I can add here. But for now, I'm okay with the   default set of columns. Again, you can make this  view your own without needing to know any coding.   All you have to do is point and click and you  can customize this. Over on the left-hand side,   I see that Lila currently is not associated with  any deals. It looks like her coworker, Ben, is   working on the New York flagship location. Now I  could click on this to add a deal directly within   this view or over on the left-hand side, we can  click into the deals board and this will show me a   comprehensive view of all deals that we're working  on. Let's click into that. This opens up the deals   board and here I can quickly see where all of  our different deals stand. And look at that.   We're planning on opening up lots of different  flagship stores for the Kevin Cookie Company. Lila   mentioned that she was interested in opening up  a Los Angeles flagship store. To add a new deal,   down at the bottom of this table, I'll click  into here and let's type in Los Angeles flagship.  That looks good. Now I need to assign an owner  from the Kevin Cookie Company to drive this   deal through to completion. Here I'll click on  this profile picture icon and I think Nestor   would do a really good job. He is so solid at  closing out these deals. I'll select him and   right here I can also choose the contact. Now I'm  working with Lila on this from Universal Cookies,   so I'll select her. That looks great. I could  also select multiple contacts if let's say   multiple people from the customer side were  working on this deal. Now right over here,   I could also choose the stage. Let's click on  this. This opens up all of the different default   stages and this works OK, but in the cookie  industry, we have slightly different terminology.   The good thing is I can customize all of these  stages to meet my needs. Down at the bottom,   I'll click on edit labels. Here I can now type  in new text. For example, instead of discovery,   this is really where we evaluate the franchisee.  So, I'll type in that text right here. Also,   when we win a deal, that's really when we sign the  franchisee agreement. So, there I'll type it in.   Along with changing the text, I could also add new  stages or over here I could also shift the order   of these various stages. But I think for now this  looks good. So down below I'll click on apply,   and right here I can now select the stage. Now  right now we're evaluating whether Lila is a   good match. So, I'll select franchisee evaluation. Over on the right-hand side in the next column I   can also add a deal value. Now Lila wants to  open up in a major metropolitan area and we   charge quite a bit for that. So, I'm going to  put down five hundred thousand dollars as the   expected deal value. Now, just like we saw in  some of the previous views, right up on top I   can also add additional columns and I would really  like to track when we expect some of these deals   to close. Over here we can see all the different  core columns. And here if I scroll down here's an   option for expected close date. Let me check that  box. And now if I scroll over to the right-hand   side, here we see the expected close date. Now  for the Los Angeles flagship store, I think we   can move on this fairly quickly. So let me put  down maybe early May on this. Keep in mind that's   really fast when you're franchising locations.  I’ll select that as the expected close date.  Now I'm feeling really good about these deals and  I'd like to see how we're looking for the year. Up   on top let's switch it to the forecast view. I'll  click on this. This now drops me into the forecast   view and the beautiful thing about one of these  views is you can completely customize it to match   your needs. Now currently I have two different  widgets included in this view. One for the monthly   forecast and another one showing me how we're  performing against the annual goal. However,   I could also include additional widgets. Right up  on top, I can click on this add widget button and   here we see some of the most common widgets  that you might want to include in your view.   But down here at the very bottom, you can also  click on more widgets and there is a massive   collection of different widgets that you can use  to customize your view. For now, let's go to the   top right-hand corner and close out of this.  Right down here I have two existing widgets   but you'll notice that in this first widget  it doesn’t currently show a monthly forecast.   Let’s take a quick look at how you can customize  these widgets. In the top right-hand corner, I'll   click on the three dots and here that shows me  more options and then let's click into settings. This now opens up settings and over on the  right-hand side, I can select a chart type. I   think a bar chart would work well. So, I'll click  on this one and then let's minimize this category.   Along with choosing the chart type, I could also  define what the X-axis is or what the Y-axis is.   Let's start with the X and click on that and here  I can choose how I want to group the data. I'll   group it by month. Down below, I can also choose  what type of deals I want to show. Now I want to   show it by the expected close date. So, I'll  select that. Let's now minimize this category   and then go down to Y. And here I want to show the  deal value. So, I'll check this box and as soon as   I select that I can now visualize the data over  on the left-hand side. And again, this is pulling   in data from that table view or the main table but  now I'm seeing it in a visual way. This is really   nice. Up in the top right-hand corner, I'll click  on the X icon and here I can now see my monthly   forecast simply by clicking into this view up  above. One of the nice things is here I can   also adjust how it appears within this view so I  can make it smaller. Or here I can make it larger.   Here I'll make it the same size as the annual goal  over on the right-hand side. With the annual goal,   here too, I can also customize it. I can click  on the three dots and here I could go into the   settings. You can also filter the view. Maybe you  only want to look at a subset of your deals. You   have all these different options to filter this  visual. But for now, I'm happy with the defaults.   And here I think it looks really good. We're  already almost halfway through to our annual goal   of 10 million. We're making such good progress.  Right up on top, I can also add additional views.   Here I can click on this plus icon to add a view.  And here we see all sorts of different boards that   we can add. Down at the very bottom, I could also  click into more views and you'll see a massive   collection of different views that you can add.  Right up on top, you can even add a blank view so   that way you can completely customize it to your  needs. Right up on top, let's close out of this.   Let's now click into the pipeline view. Up above  I'll click on pipeline. And this now shows me a   visual view of how all of our different deals are  progressing. If you've ever used a Kanban board   before this is a very similar view. Right down  here I can see the Los Angeles flagship store.   Currently it sits under franchisee evaluation.  However, Nestor just let me know that we've been   making some progress. We're currently in the  proposal stage. I can click on one of these   cards and here I'll drag it over to the proposal  step. And there we now see it in this column. Here   too with this view you have all the same sorting  and also filtering mechanisms up above. Now that   we've been making some good progress on these  deals, over on the left-hand side let's shift   back into the contacts view. And again, this  is where you can see a comprehensive view of   all of your different contacts. Here's Lila Baker  and one of the neat things is over here under the   deals column we see that the Los Angeles flagship  automatically shows up, even though we added that   deal within the deals board. And over here I can  even click on that deal and here I can see all the   details. Here I can even see what stage we're  currently in. It's currently in the proposal   stage. The great thing is all of your different  boards automatically stay in sync. So, if you make   an update in deals, it'll automatically flow  through to all of these associated boards. I   recently had a phone call with Lila and I want  to make sure to capture that activity that way   Nestor is in the loop. Over here, I'll click on  Lila, and right up on top, here I can click on   this to add an activity. I have different options  like a meeting or call or just a note. I can even   add custom activities. I had a call so I'll select  this option and this opens up a dialogue and I   can now type in my notes. It sounds like we're  getting really close to signing that franchise   agreement. Down below I'll click on add and then  let's close out of this view. To get a view of all   of the activities across your entire sales team,  over on the left-hand side, let's click into the   activities board and here this drops me into a  table view. So here I could see that it looks   like Nestor's hosted a few meetings and here I  see that call that I recently hosted with Lila   Baker. Now just like we've seen with all the other  tables here I could customize it. I could also add   additional columns if I'd like but I think this  includes all the information that I would like to   track. Right up on top, we could also filter this  but let's say I want to see how active I've been.   I'll click on person, select my photo, and right  here I can see that I've had two recent calls.   Right on top, I'll close out of this filter. Right  up on top we can also shift into different views   and again with the view you can use all the data  from the main table in just a more visual way.   So right here, there's already a few included  widgets. For example, I can see a summary of   all the different activity types across this sales  team. I could see how many phone calls we've made,   how many meetings we've hosted, how many call  summaries have been entered in. Down below,   here I could also see by month how active the team  has been. And just like we saw in the deals view,   I can completely customize this view. Here I could  adjust the sizing and I could also add additional   widgets and I get the full collection of different  widgets. So again, this view is yours to make your   own so that way it's valuable to you. With all of  this activity going on I'm fairly confident that   we're going to be closing some deals soon. And  ideally, I want the build out team to be notified   as soon as we close one of these deals. Now of  course I could manually contact the build out   team to let them know or I could automate that.  Over on the left-hand side let's click into deals   and then at the very top there's the option to  automate. Let's click on that. Within automation,   you can automate all sorts of different workflows.  Over on the left-hand side, you'll see some of the   top level categories and within these categories  you'll see some recipes that you can use. And you   can even integrate with third party providers.  Now I just need a very basic recipe. I'll go   up to the top under explore and right here  when status changes, so when we close a deal,   I want to notify the build out team. I think this  one will work perfectly. Over here I'll click on   use template. This now opens up a recipe that  I can customize. And again, I don't have to do   any coding. I'm simply clicking my mouse. So right  up here I'll click on these underlined words. So,   when status changes to something. I'll click on  this and I want it to notify someone when the   stage changes. So, I'll click on stage and I need  to define what it changes to. So, I'll click on   this, so when it changes to franchisee agreement.  Then I want to notify the build out team. So right   here I'll click on notify and here I could type in  the message. So right up here. Hey Patty. We just   recently signed a new franchisee agreement and  we need our team to get ready to build out the   new location. And right down here I can include  some of the details. Now just like we saw in the   mass email, you can insert dynamic fields that'll  pull data from that table. So here I'll insert the   board name. Let's also put in the deal value and  also the expected close date. I'll select all of   those. This message looks good, so I'll click on  done. Now I need to define who should be notified.   I'll click on someone and over here it'll be  a guest. We're going to go with Patty. She's   one of our vendors who can build this out. Now  that I've entered in all these different fields,   let's click on create automation. This is going to  make my life so much easier. Right down below. I   can now see my new automation. If I want to edit  it, I simply click on it again. And over here I   can see that it's currently active. Again, this  way, anytime we sign that franchisee agreement,   our build out team will be immediately notified.  Right up in the top right-hand corner, let's click   on the X. Back now within the deals view, look at  that! It looks like Nestor has already closed this   deal with Lila. He moves so fast. I'll click into  this card and we need to make sure that we now   charge that franchise fee. Right up on top, one of  the beautiful things is I can generate an invoice   directly within sales CRM. I'll click on this text  and this opens up an invoice and I can now use all   the data from that table directly in this invoice.  For example, here I can click on the customer   name and here I see the name from the board, or  right over here, I could insert the phone number   and I can go through and insert all the different  information onto this invoice. And then over here,   I can download it once I'm ready to send it to  the customer. For now, let's click out of this   view. To get a full picture of what's going on  in your organization, over on the left-hand side,   let's click into the sales dashboard. Within the  sales dashboard, you can customize this view to   show you just the information that you care about.  Right up on top, you can have multiple different   boards feed into this dashboard. Currently I have  it set to show the deals board, but maybe you   have other workspaces and you want to aggregate  or consolidate all of that information into one   dashboard. You can do that. Here I'll close out.  Right up on top, you can also add widgets. And   when I click on that, you'll see some example  widgets that you can add. At the very bottom,   we could also click on more widgets. And there  are so many different options of widgets that   you can include on your dashboard. I'll close out  of this. Once you add a widget to your dashboard,   you can customize what that widget shows. Here  you could click on the three dots, go to settings,   and here you could customize as showing count,  what columns, how do you want it to appear? You   have all these different options. I'll close out  of this. Now, two of my favorite widgets. Here   we have the funnel chart, and this shows how all  of our different deals are progressing along all   of the different stages. This way I can see how  much progress our team has been making. Here,   if I go down to the sales pipeline, just a  different visual of the same data, you can   even drill down to look at these specific data  or tables behind the visual. Here, for example,   let's say I want to see all of our completed  deals. Simply click on that, and that opens   up a drill down view. And here I see those two  deals that we closed. Here I can exit the drill   down and close out of this. If I go down a little  bit more, one of my other favorite views here is   the leader board. Here I see all the different  members of the sales team. Also, how many deals   they've closed and the average deal size. With  this sales dashboard, I can organize and position   things how I would like. For example, I can make  this smaller. I can make it larger. Maybe I want   to move it up the page. Here I can drag it up.  And keep in mind that I can build all of this out   without needing any development help. I can do all  of this on my own to give me the view that I need.   All right.
