HubSpot Updates

[Now Live] - New In-App Integration Listings Page

HubSpot updated the in-app integration listings page in HubSpot. This change brings their new visual redesign, an enhanced UI, and a simple way for you to see what you have integrated (what apps have access to your data) and make changes as desired. You can find the in-app integration page in the right hand drop down next to Hub ID in your portal.

Hubcast - HubSpot Integrations

[HubSpot Connect] - Privy Integration

What’s this integration partner do?

Privy is an on-site lead acquisition solution for marketers. The tool makes it easy to create pop-up lead capture forms or offers on your website without touching any code or HTML. With Privy linked to HubSpot, leads flow directly into your Contacts.

HubSpot Wish List

Ability to filter social streams in the social monitoring tool by follower count, amount of engagement with post etc.

For instance, when I look for mentions of Marcus Sheridan or The Sales Lion, be able to see those mentions in order of follower base or tweet engagement
