What is a HubSpot Audit & Refresh?

Essentially, it’s a chance to review everything you’ve put into HubSpot, reorganize it, as well as evaluate what you’re doing with the platform. You may not be growing the way you could be with HubSpot because certain tools or features are not being used effectively.

 

Auditing your HubSpot portal will provide insight into how to best move forward and which best practices need to be implemented and trained on during the refresh.

When Should I Refresh HubSpot?

From our experience, there are a handful of leading indicators that prompt ecommerce marketers to invest in a HubSpot refresh, including:

  • Your HubSpot portal has never been calibrated for ecommerce and/or you (or your team) has not been coached on how to best leverage it for growth
  • You've had your subscription for 12 or more months and are suffering from a "failure to launch" with respect to many of the key features
  • You've recently inherited your HubSpot portal and want to dramatically shorten your ramp-up time
  • You are impeded by "noise" inside your portal, including an abundance of data, lists, workflows, email templates and other assets that are stale or unused
  • You are considering or planning to add a new Hub or HubSpot product
  • Former employees took the knowledge about how HubSpot was configured with them and it's now left up to you to understand and build upon

Benefits of a Clean HubSpot Portal

In addition to enjoying a highly organized portal that's easy to navigate, you'll also:

  • Be able to quickly and efficiently execute on growth-oriented strategies
  • Maximize the return on your investment in HubSpot
  • Control your HubSpot cost by removing disengaged and duplicate contacts
  • Better automate evergreen customer lifecycle marketing campaigns
  • More easily track and report on your success

We will assess the current state of your instance against both industry best practices as well as your use case, stated goals and objectives.
