Align statuses "Create Opportunity" with Sales department

A mandatory and best practice method before setting up your campaigns is to align with sales department if certain actions or insights from your customer would trigger a "create opportunity" status.

The logical way of proceeding, would be to be sure that if the customer realizes an action X within the campaign objects, this should be considered as opportunity to generate sales/business out of it, and consequently, the sales department will contact later on this contact, to try and start negotiations due to his/her interests regarding such topic.
