When I have a new Lead, is it possible to edit the ‘‘Lead Status’’? Create a different one? Diffetent then the ones already there?

I would like to have "Cold lead’’ ‘‘Warm Lead’’… something like that!

Thank you so much

Hi @LarHouse

By default the lead status property is a dropdown format property - meaning you can’t edit the options on the fly, by typing in whatever you want, but you can edit the predefined options in the property settings.  
More info: [Edit properties](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/crm-setup/manage-your-properties#edit-properties)

Hope this helps.
