Article Summary

Resurfacing is a functionality that is tied with Dead Reasons. This lets you create a rule that "resurfaces" Opportunities that were marked dead for a specific reason so they go back into your Active Opportunities to be followed up with. This is best used for those dead Opportunities that are not actually "dead". 

Pro and Premium Feature
Resurfacing is available to Pro and Premium plans. If you are on the Essentials plan and are interested to upgrade, please email billing@investorfuse.com or send our support team a chat.

  2. Click the cogwheel icon
  3. Select Resurfacing
  4. Click +Add Resurfacing button at the bottom of the screen

  6. Select a Trigger on Dead Reason. This will tell the system to trigger this Resurfacing rule whenever an opportunity is marked dead and the reason you set is selected.
  7.  Enter how many days the Opportunities should resurface after being marked dead
  8. Click the ellipsis to delete the Resurfacing rule
