Be effective with tracking, getting reminded and keeping up with all the tasks you need to do for your client through expertly managing your Activities! Trail's Activities feature is one you will want to know about as it is closely tied to your Opportunities management.

We strongly encourage you to use Activities frequently for all task management in Trail. This helps you stay on top of each next step for your client and reminds you what you need to do to keep the Opportunity continuously moving forward in your Pipeline.

Activities support internal processes and teamwork as you can assign Activities between teammates - adviser to assistant or client manager, and back! - and make comments/notes to each other.

It is also great for record keeping - to have a record on the Client's Profile on what you've done for the client and attach any information about the task you did.

Starting with the Activities page - this gives you a great overview and has filters for you to see any historic, current and upcoming activities.

This page is where you need to go everyday to see what are upcoming tasks for today, and what you have on for the coming week.

To access your Activities page, click the calendar icon on the navbar on the left of your screen.

From the Activities page, you will be able to see all your activities (and those of your team, depending on your settings). This page shows what the activity is, which Profile it is linked to, and when it is due, among other details. The activity header bar allows you to filter the activities by time, activity type, and complete/incomplete.
