Our guest host today is the already Hubcast-famous Stephanie Casstevens!
This episode of the Hubcast is brought to you by our friends at DigitalMarketer.
I had an outrageously awesome day at HubSpot this week. Here are some things I took away: (you’re just going to have to listen to episode to find out what they were…)
This episode we start things off with Stephanie’s INBOUND Breakout Session sneak peak! Topic: 5 Steps to Future-Proof Your Marketing Skills Against the Rise of the Robots (It’s time to let go of the fear of the future and embrace it.)
Property of the Week: Sales Enablement Series
In our sales enablement series, we’ll be focusing on properties that will help your sales team sell better!
Persona
“The contact’s persona.” What a definition!
If you’ve been doing inbound seriously, or have done anything with HubSpot Academy, you probably already know what a persona is. So why is it our property of the week?
Because while a lot of people create personas, and even add their personas to HubSpot, for many that are the end of their persona work.
A few awesome ways to use the Persona property in HubSpot: use Forms to mark your personas; mark personas with hidden form fields; mark personas based on various website actions. Once you have personas actually being tracked, oh the places you’ll go! Segmented lead nurturing, segmented sales sequences, assigning leads to the right salesperson, oh my!
And as promised, here's some info for those of you who haven't ever created Buyer Personas!
HubSpot Wish List
From ron_kagan with 144 upvotes:
I want a pony
“Hi,
I want a pony.
I discussed this after my initial request to sync with Salesforce had been resolved excellently by HubSpot Technical Support. So, since that was done to my satisfaction, I asked for a pony. I was told that I cut out a bit and to please repeat what I said, so, I restated my request and was told, unfortunately, that that cannot be done.
I was then told that it would be "so awesome if I could make a pony gallop across your screen right now." I agree. I said I would file this as a ticket in HubSpot Ideas. So I am.
I think that it would largely be agreed that we work pretty hard and that we deserve ponies.
If you agree, pleaseee share this with your teammates and vote this up. We want ponies. We each deserve a pony. We demand ponies. Give us our ponies.”
Just kidding. Here’s the real one:
Allow attachments received in emails to log to CRM
“When logging emails to CRM, allow the attachments to be placed into or linked with the Deal or Contact.” -
