Shot 2: HubSpot Marketing Feature of the Week

Scheduling on popup forms: For existing popups you can now set an End time:

Pop Up Forms   HubSpot

If your popup is not yet published, you can also set Publish Start times:

Pop Up Forms   HubSpot 1

Only seems to be available in Pro and Enterprise, not in Starter or Free.

Shot 3: HubSpot Sales Feature of the Week

Collecting all the data you need in the right contact properties.

Why is this important?  Because we discovered sales teams have internal processes that they do adhere to.  Like sending an email to accounts to have an account set up in SAP.  So we created a snippet that all the necessary bits of data so it could be used in a task for account setup.

Snippets   HubSpot

Shot 4: HubSpot Gotcha of the Week

There’s no way to tell from the contact timeline which social post a person clicked on that brought them to the site.

Would be nice if HubSpot could incorporate that into the timeline.

There’s an Ideas forum entry you upvote if you agree:

Shot 5: Marketing Tip of the Week

Using Google search operators:

The Exclude operator is handy eg you can exclude terms or sites from the search results eg:

hubspot podcast -hubspot.com

hubspot podcast  hubspot com   Google Search

This will return a list of results that excludes anything from the hubspot.com domain.
