Deals & pipeline

Track every treatment opportunity from first enquiry to operation.

Where to find itMenuDeals & Pipeline
StaffAdministrators

A deal represents one treatment opportunity for one patient. Deals move through stages your clinic defines — typically from lead to consultation, surgery, post-op and follow-up — and can be worked either as a list or as a board. The screen is built around the question every clinic asks: who has gone quiet and needs contacting?

What you can do here

  • Work deals as a list or as a stage board
  • Link each deal to a patient and a service with its price
  • Filter by stage, service, owner and creation date
  • Find deals that have not been contacted in 3 or 7 days
  • Sort by staleness to work the coldest first
  • See the linked appointment for deals that reached scheduling
  • Get notified when deals move

What a deal holds

Patient
The person the opportunity belongs to. Opening the deal gets you to their file.
Service
The treatment from your catalogue, which supplies the default value of the deal.
Value
The expected revenue in CHF. Editable if the quote differs from the list price.
Stage
Where the opportunity has reached. Stages are configured for your clinic.
Owner
The advisor responsible. Filters and reporting use this.
Pipeline and location
Which pipeline and which clinic site the deal belongs to.
Title and notes
A short label plus free notes for context the next person will need.

Stages

Stages are defined per clinic, each with an underlying type so the platform knows what kind of step it is.

  • Stages have a display order, and one is the default for new deals
  • Deals in appointment-related stages show their linked appointment on the card
  • Moving a deal between stages can trigger a workflow — for example an automatic follow-up email
Stage typeTypical meaning
LeadAn enquiry that has not been qualified yet.
ConsultationA consultation is being arranged or has happened.
SurgeryTreatment or operation agreed and scheduled.
Post-opTreatment delivered, aftercare in progress.
Follow-upLonger-term follow-up, recall or a further treatment.
OtherAnything specific to your clinic's process.

List view and board view

List view
A dense table. Best for filtering, sorting by staleness and working through a call list.
Board view
A column per stage with deal cards. Best for seeing where the pipeline is congested. Long columns load more on demand rather than all at once.
  1. 1

    Switch view

    Use the list and board toggle above the deals.

  2. 2

    Filter first

    Filters apply to both views, so set them once.

Filters, and finding neglected deals

This is the part that drives revenue. The contact filters use the last time the patient was contacted on any channel.

  1. 1

    Set the contact filter to 3 days

  2. 2

    Turn on sort by staleness

    The longest-neglected deals rise to the top.

  3. 3

    Work down the list

    Open the patient, contact them on their preferred channel, and the deal drops off the list automatically once contact is recorded.

FilterWhat it finds
Never contactedDeals where no contact has been recorded at all.
No contact in 3 daysDeals going cold — the usual daily working list.
No contact in 7 daysDeals at real risk of being lost.
StageOne stage only, for example everyone awaiting a consultation.
ServiceOne treatment, useful when a campaign runs on a single procedure.
OwnerOne advisor's deals.
Date rangeDeals created between two dates.

Tip

Make this the first screen each advisor opens. It replaces the spreadsheet everyone otherwise keeps.

Creating and moving deals

  1. 1

    Create a deal against the patient

    Choose the service — the value is filled in from the catalogue — and set the owner and stage.

  2. 2

    Move it as reality changes

    In board view move the card; in list view change the stage on the deal.

  3. 3

    Let automation do the rest

    Stage changes are a workflow trigger, so aftercare mail, tasks and notifications can fire without anyone remembering.

Note

Deals are also created automatically by lead import, so imported campaign leads arrive in the pipeline rather than sitting in a file nobody opens.

Deal notifications

  • The deals icon in the header counts movement on deals you are involved in
  • A dedicated deal notifications page lists what changed
  • Combined with stage-change workflows, this is how handover between advisor and clinical team happens without a meeting

Frequently asked

One patient wants two different treatments. One deal or two?
Two. Each deal carries one service and one value, so two deals keep the pipeline value and conversion reporting honest.
Why is a deal still on my 3-day list after I emailed the patient?
The contact filters use recorded contact. Email, WhatsApp and SMS sent from inside the platform are recorded automatically; a call from your mobile is not. Log it, or call from the platform.
