How to get dataInto Insightly
![Page 12: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Is to type it in manually. If you are a new business that doesn’t already have a lot of information you want to get into the system, that may be fine. Just click “add new,” fill out the boxes, and click “save.”
The simplest way to get data into your CRM
![Page 13: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Adding a New Record
To Insightly Manually
![Page 14: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Then it may be too much data to enter manually. If you have your data in Gmail, Outlook, Act9, or a .CSV spreadsheet, then you are in luck. Insightly allows you to import data directly from these applications automatically.
If you are an
existing business
![Page 15: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Importing Data into Insightly
![Page 16: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
You will get a screen where you can select the program you would like to import from, and Insightly takes care of the rest:
Once you do that
![Page 17: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Many systems will allow you to export data into a .csv excel file. The key is getting your data from whatever systems you have it in now, into a spreadsheet which you can then import in your CRM.
What If My Program
Is Not Listed?

Once you have your data in a .csv spreadsheet, go back to the same “import contacts” window above, and select “import contacts from a .csv file”. Select your file and then push upload, which will bring up a window that looks like this:

You can use opportunities to see where a potential lead is in the sales process, what people are buying, what the probability is someone will make a purchase, and your sales team’s success rate.
Sales opportunities represent the product
or service you are selling

little more complicated
But is also a very powerful feature for salespeople and sales managers. When used correctly you can track the current stage of all your sales opportunities on the individual salesperson and company level.

1. Define your sales process
Define your sales process before. Here is an example of a simple sales process: !- New Lead - Schedule a Meeting/Demo - Meeting/Demo - Signed Contract !In this example, the sales process is made up of 4 stages.
![Page 41: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Using permissioning and
keeping your data safe
![Page 58: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
The more restrictive you make the permissions for individual users in terms of what they can see, the less useful the system becomes. Alternatively, the more access you give your individual users, the more likely it is that someone is going to run off with all your data.
There is a Balance here
Between keeping it useful and being exposed
![Page 59: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
There are two levels where user permissions can be set in Insightly: !1. The System Level 2. The Record Level
Here’s what you need to keep your system useful
![Page 60: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
1. The System LevelUnder the system settings tab you can give administrative access (the ability to change system settings), and set whether or not a user can export data from the system.
![Page 61: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
2. The Record Level
By default records are visible to everyone. You can also set records to be visible only to the person that created it, specific people, or teams of people. Regardless of what an individual record’s permission level is set to, administrators will always be able to see all records.
![Page 62: How To Set Up Insightly CRM](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042602/55936cdb1a28ab78138b4715/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
