Leads App ensures that your database on leads is managed effectively. Our team of engineers has done thorough research on the various outcomes that are possible while creating a lead. One such sorted feature is the ability to create a new lead from an existing lead. This can be achieved easily with Apptivo.

Ross is an employee of Dream Capital Enterprise. He recently attended a conference in New York. During the course of events, he came across people who belonged to the same businesses. They were potential leads for their business. So, he adds the information in the Leads App. It is time-consuming to add the same information again. He uses the duplicate feature to create a new lead from the existing lead. This way he needs to make only minimal changes.
