Lead

A Lead is every potential sales opportunity that has not been qualified yet. It can either come from Marketing (both from your Marketing or Wildix Marketing passed to you), or from any activity you and your sales team have done. You need to make sure this potential sales opportunity (or lead) has some characteristics without which it doesn't make sense to move forward in the sales cycle and make this Lead an opportunity. Up to you to decide which characteristics are required, but generally speaking, we talk about: the company is in target, the person is the right one etc, so Wildix so Salesforce Partner Community gives you the opportunity to track this qualification process through the Lead object.

Account, Contact and Project are the key object related to the Sales Process. Accounts and Contacts are useful in order to store information about your customers. Accounts represent the companies, and  Contacts - are the people who work for them.
