HubSpot Updates

Introducing the HubSpot - join.me Integration

For sales reps, meetings and demos are the name of the game. The more efficiently you can set up and execute those pivotal conversations with your prospects, the better.

With that in mind, we're excited to announce an easy-to-use integration between HubSpot CRM and join.me that enables sales teams to quickly create and launch calls, video conferences, and screenshares from within contact, company, and deal timelines in HubSpot. Instant meetings via join.me in HubSpot means fewer clicks for you and no downloads for your prospects, so you can do more demos in a day. And more demos equals more deals. Win-win.

How it works:
Navigate to any contact, company, or deal record in your HubSpot CRM.

Create a new meeting or find one that’s already created on the timeline.

Click on the meeting and you’ll see a brand new option to create a join.me

Hover over the button and follow the steps to log into your join.me account. After your account is set up, you’ll be able to start a meeting instantly from any record in HubSpot.

A quick note on support: if you have a question or find an issue within the HubSpot interface, you can use the same HubSpot Support channels you're used to. If you're having trouble with your join.me account, please reach out to join.me's support team.

The join.me integration is now live to all users of HubSpot CRM. Not yet using HubSpot CRM? Get started now --- it's 100% free, forever.

Set Defaults for Lists & Contacts

Customization per user in HubSpot is a double edged sword. On one side, each person can make their portal their own and easily find things most important to them. 

On the other side, when your whole team can individually customize their own portal, they may not be looking at the same information as the rest of the team, or doing things uniformly.

That’s why we think one should be able to set list and contact defaults for the marketing and or sales team inside the marketing software as well as the CRM.
