# Understanding the Lead Nurture Stage

## Learn which opportunities we recommend adding to your Long Term Nurture stage!

Updated: September 08, 2025

 

If you're  unfamiliar with the different stages listed in your Sales Pipeline, please see our help article here: [Sales Pipeline Stages Explained](https://help.vintory.com/sales-pipeline-stages-explained?hsLang=en)

If you're confident that your potential prospect is currently no longer interested, we recommend deleting the opportunity and NOT the contact. Deleting the opportunity only will allow that contact to enter any new cold email campaigns or direct mail campaigns. 

You can view and edit the automated emails being sent to your opportunities directly in your account by navigating to Automations > search "nurture" > and adjust the  various email templates if you wish.
