Stage To Stage Pipeline Automation

This article applies to:

Pro-Tip! Note that an opportunity can only be moved from one stage to another manually by a user. Pipeline automation refers to automating processes after an opportunity has been moved from one stage to another by a user.

When a sales rep moves the stage in an opportunity record, Infusionsoft can initiate automation that updates tags, sends an email to the prospect, starts a new campaign sequence, sends  internal notification messages, assigns tasks to other users, and more.

You can run actions based on an opportunity record moving INTO a specific stage, or OUT OF a  specific stage. When you plan the marketing automation strategy for your direct sales process, ask yourself:

  • Is this series of actions specific to the newly assigned stage? If the answer is yes, then  you will want to assign the action to the movement INTO that stage.
  • Is the action appropriate regardless of the next stage? If the next stage is irrelevant, then you will assign the action to the movement OUT OF  the stage. This is less common.
