Prompt User Based On Account Checkbox

I am trying to figure out how to prompt a user to create an Opportunity after they've saved an Account that meets our specific criteria. I know there is functionality to do this but I'm not sure how to trigger it this way specifically.  

I've Googled like a mad man and can't seem to find a solid solution so any help would be appreciated.

Hi JMartinez,

Try below code:-

I have "alertUser" checkbox on Account object.
1) Create one Visualforce page and copy below code in your page.

<apex:page standardController="Account" rendered="{!Account.alertUser__c == true}">
<script type="text/javascript">
{ window.alert("Please create Opportunity...!!!"); }
</script>
</apex:page>

2) Edit Account page layout and add above visualforce page in page layout.
3) Edit properties of visualforce page on page layout and set "Height"  0 as we dont want to show that VF page to user.
4) save page layout.

Now try creating Account and save account you will get prompt message.
