HubSpot Wish List

Add Lead Flow Submissions to ‘Campaign’ feature

Submitted by: Liam Bates

Lead Flows are one of the best features HubSpot has ever created, and one of our clients receives a ton of their leads through exit-intent pop-ups and slide-in banners.

Unfortunately, they are not tracked yet in the HubSpot campaign feature, making it not fully comprehensive of a whole campaign strategy.

This would be a great addition and better represent the successes and failures of a campaign we run.

[Now Live] Set Automatic Email Reminder for Meetings

E,mail-Meeting-Reminder

We’ve all been stood up for meetings before. Not only is it a bummer, but it also means you’re missing out on a chance to close a deal.

As a sales rep, you want to be able to remind your prospects of an upcoming meeting in order to increase your chance of closing a deal.

But time is money, right? So, manually reaching out to prospects isn’t the most productive way to spend your day.

Now, you can set up your meeting’s link to automatically send reminder emails to prospects 72 hours and 1 hour before your meeting, which will decrease no-shows and increase your productivity.

HubSpot Hack Awards

Jeppe Houman Nyrup

One of our amazing friends and Hubcast listeners from Denmark sent in this hack. 

Hi George

The other day I was on the phone with a client that needed to create a list of contacts attached to a Parent company in the CRM.

Apparently HubSpot has chosen to make the life hard on people who want to do that (or it is currently a bug) cause the company property ‘Parent Company’ is a number, which makes it pretty hard to enter a name of that parent company:

Image-1-hack

But I found out that if you go into your company database in HubSpot and find that Parent company you can find this number in the URL:

Image-2-Hack

If you copy/paste this ID number into the parent company property on your list – Badabing & Boomshakalaka – you have a list of contacts associated with a company that has this parent company attached 

Image-3-Hack

That was my best hack of the month. It can be used in other ways as well, but that ID is very good to know for both Companies, Contacts, Deals, etc.

Until Next Time
