The search results can be added to your new target group. The business process also enables you as a marketing employee to create a campaign, assign the newly created target group, and select a campaign type. Creating Leads This business process enables you to create a lead as a follow-up document of a campaign response. The lead can also be created without any preceding document. A lead is used to qualify a business partner's interest in a particular product or service, with the aim of both establishing and then subsequently influencing this interest. Creating and Developing Opportunities The business process enables you to create an opportunity as a follow-up document to a lead. It facilitates a proactive approach to closing sales and provides sales employees with a comprehensive view of an opportunity from when it is first created. Opportunity management also allows sales to manage opportunity-related activities effectively, as well as maintain and track opportunities SAP AG. All rights reserved. 6
