How to set-up for company or individuals for accounts?

[sipserv]

Hi there!

We get leads for both, people who work for or have a business ( Account) and owners who are acting without a business. As you can see this becomes a problem for the Owners when the Lead is converted and there is no Account name to give.

I am sure I'm not the only one with this situation. Has anyone found a clean way to set this up in their Sugar?

I am using fresh install of 6.2

Thanks!

There are two common techniques I've seen in practice:

1. Associate those acting on their own to an account named "Individual."

2. Associate those acting on their own to an account that uses the person's name for its name.

I tend to like option 2 more than the first as the first one ends up creating a bunch of accounts named "Individual."
