HubSpot offers the inbound tools you need to accelerate your growth. HubSpot has marketing, sales, content management, and customer service tools that allow you to attract, interact with, and retain your customers, all built around a CRM. Marketing Hub tools help you drive traffic to your website, launch effective marketing campaigns, and generate more interest in your business. Sales Hub tools are useful for tracking every interaction with your prospects – automatically. You can organize your activities, close deals and track your entire pipeline to engage with your prospects in a human and relevant way.
HubSpot Service tools help you keep your customers happy and turn them into promoters. With this software, you can respond to your customers faster, improve the productivity of your teams, and help your customers find solutions to their problems. Let’s take a look at how these tools can help you and your business. In your HubSpot account, the main navigation bar at the top of the screen gives you access to all of your information and tools within HubSpot. Your HubSpot account is based on the CRM database, which stores the contacts you’re connected to.
Your contacts are a great way to see your level of engagement with your target audience and the impact you have on them.
You can also measure this, along with the results of your other initiatives, in your dashboard reports. With them, you get complete visibility into your business performance, and you can analyze data on how you’re attracting, engaging and retaining prospects and customers. By the way, to chat with them, the Conversations tool is available in the main navigation bar. You can use it to interact with your site visitors in real time and quickly answer their questions.
Now let’s move on to your marketing tools, which consist of ads, emails, social media and tools specific to your website and its design.
The last two are automation tools: sequences and workflows. With them, you can achieve your goals quickly to provide your customers with what they need, when they need it. Finally, you have a full library of reporting tools to help you track the metrics that matter most to you. Now let’s move to the right side of the main navigation bar.
The search bar allows you to search for anything in HubSpot, whether it’s contacts, tools, help documents or online courses. So if you’re having trouble finding something, this search bar is a good place to start. Next, the store icon gives you access to the application and resource marketplaces. Finally, the gear icon allows you to access all your account settings. The last icon you can click on is this one, which gives you access to your profile and preferences, as well as HubSpot Academy, which offers many free inbound marketing and HubSpot training courses in multiple languages!
