<h2 style="text-align: justify">Leads<a name="leads"></a></h2>
<p style="text-align: justify">A lead represents a <strong>potential sales opportunity</strong> linked to a contact or organization that has yet to be qualified. They’re perfect for initial outreach when you’re not ready to actively track these opportunities in your pipeline.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify"><a href="https://support.pipedrive.com/en/article/leads-inbox" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Leads Inbox</a> is a dedicated space to organize and work on your prequalified leads before they become <a href="https://support.pipedrive.com/article/deals-what-they-are-and-how-to-add-them" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">deals</a>. Here are a few things to keep in mind about leads:</p>
<ul>
<li>You <strong>must</strong> link a lead with either a <strong>contact person</strong> or <strong>organization</strong>, or both</li>
<li>You can use leads to organize potential clients, converting them into deals</li>

<ul>
<li>User, organization, and person-type custom fields will click through to the item entered in those values.</li>
<li>People contacts in Pipedrive already have a default phone field, but a phone-type custom field can be added under other items (organizations, deals etc.)</li>
<li>Organizations in Pipedrive already have a default address field, but an address-type custom field can be added under other items (leads, projects etc.)</li>
<li>When adding a value in a person or organization field, if a contact with that name doesn’t already exist in your account, a new one will be created</li>
<li>Numerical and monetary fields for deals can also have formulas added to them. You can learn more about formula fields <a href="https://support.pipedrive.com/article/custom-fields-formula-fields" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">in this article</a>.</li>
<li>Text fields can be used for URLs, and clicking a URL in a text field will redirect you to that webpage</li>
<li>Address custom fields behave like the default address fields under organizations, including subfields and the <a href="https://support.pipedrive.com/article/-show-on-map-feature" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>“Show on Map”</strong></a> feature.</li>
<li>The currency of a monetary field will match your default currency setting unless otherwise specified.</li></ul>
