Add a Stage to a Pipeline — Step-by-step (easy read)

A stage is one step inside a pipeline. Think of a pipeline like a race track and stages are the checkpoints (for example: New → Contacted → Demo → Won). Below are the simple steps to add new stages.

1. Get to the list of pipelines

There are two ways to open the pipelines list:

From Settings (top-right)

  1. Click the settings icon at the top-right of the page.

Quick Example

You want to add a stage called “Follow-up” to the Sales Pipeline:

  1. Go to Settings → Pipeline (or use the Navigation hover).
  2. In the table, click the pipeline’s “…” → Edit.
  3. In Edit Pipeline, click +, type Follow-up, stop typing and the system saves it automatically.
  4. Now Follow-up appears as a new stage in that pipeline.

Notes & Tips

  • You can add as many stages as you need by repeating the plus (+) step.
  • To change stages later, open the Edit Pipeline sheet again and update the stage names.
  • Keep stage names short and clear (example: New, Contacted, Proposal, Closed) so everyone understands them quickly.
