In this episode, Mads Jorgensen shares real stories as examples of what he typically does when helping B2B, SaaS, and Manufacturing companies who were previously not getting full value from their HubSpot investment.
Examples include:
- The European B2B software company who was not getting much more value from HubSpot than they would have using Google Sheets.
- The customer with a large database of customer information who needed help to turn that into useful information on their target accounts
- The common mistake of underestimating how HubSpot should be managed in order to create value and delegating tasks without considering the skills required.
- Gaining quick wins while balancing short-term and long-term goals
- When to multiply HubSpot’s value through careful choice of integrated applications.
And Mad’s key tip around planning: “Measure twice, cut once”
