An account in Lead Gen & CRM is just like a folder in a digital filing cabinet, where you can store all of the information related to a contact or an opportunity in one place.
Adding contacts, or leads, to an account is a smart way to keep track of the individuals associated with a company. Contacts can be key stakeholders who you have started a conversation with, or leads who have reached out to you to start a working relationship.
In this article, you'll learn how to submit a record of your calls with a contact that is assigned to an account.
