Hot Prospects
Hot Prospects are a prioritized list of the most active and engaged leads and contacts for which you are the sales owner. Hot Prospects are based on the types of activities and scores outlined in your score sheets. By default, the activity shown will be for the last seven days and your default score sheet. However, you can change the timeframe and score sheet in the drop-down menus.
