rep you know that there's a lot that goes into every step of the process and the first step of the process is actually assigning those leads and making sure they get to the right person now instead of doing that manually we can do that automatically through workflows workflows is a HubSpot tool that lets you automate a lot of mundane business practices now I'll be honest workflows is a really robust and Powerful tool it is available just for our Pro and Enterprise users and it comes with a ton of functionality in fact you can create over 300 customizable options through workflows so on the top right I'm going to click create workflow and I'm going to do one from scratch now you can create workflows based on contacts companies deals tickets etc for today we want to create a contact based workflow that routes leads to the right person based on territory so I'm going to set up a trigger that says when a contact lives in Austin Texas and they've filled out a certain form let's do our help form I want them to be routed to a specific owner so I'm going to click rotate record to owner I'm going to choose my North American Sales team and hubs will now evenly round robin these leads to this team so everyone is going to have the same chance of getting a lead it's going to be as Fair as possible so in less than 2 minutes we've been able to create a process that can automatically route leads to the right owners now as I mentioned uh workflows is a super robust tool this is just one of the following things that you can do but you can do a ton of other things you can create quote-based workflows you can even send out Communications so you can send internal emails you can send external emails you can send WhatsApp m messages really the power of workflows is tfold and if you do want to learn more about workflows I highly recommend clicking create workflow and looking through our templates templates is a really really great way to understand all of the robust functionality of workflows on the left hand side go ahead and click sales Hub and here are just a couple of ideas that'll help you get started with workflows all right so we've created a workflow that rotates our leads now we need to actually work those leads enter the prospecting workspace the prospecting workspace is the perfect place to work leads because it has everything you need in one place a lot of sales reps will spend their entire day in this prospecting workpace and for good reason it has all of the list of tasks you need to do looks like I got to get started on my 57 overdue tasks it has a list of sequences that I need to enroll my contacts in also it has an overview of my leads so leads that I need to reach out to reads that I've already connected with and leads that I'm still attempting to connect with on the left hand side you'll also be able to see a schedule of your calendar once you've connected if I click into leads I'll be able to see the people who I need to reach out to now these are people that were assigned to me via that workflow or these are people who somehow have gotten to my desk now we do want to talk very quickly about the differences between contacts in your CRM in leads contacts is every single person in your CRM these are the folks maybe marketing has added literally every single person who is in your CRM will be in the contacts tab now leads on the other hand are a little different these are the folks who are a little better fit for you to reach out to so instead of looking through thousands and thousands of Records you have a more specific list of people you need to reach out to so just so we're clear all leads are contact but not all contacts are leads so just a highle overview of your leads tab you can filter by leads stage so this is the communication stages that I have with my contacts you can also filter by companies Target accounts if they're in sequences or targeted emails and more so let's say I have just been assigned Juanita the first thing that I'm going to do is Click into rename and just get to know this contact a little bit more I can see that in the past someone has actually connected with her which is great that means she's open uh to talking with us and I can also see the notes and the prior Communications that she's had with folks in my company if I go into about I can also see quick information about her any notes that people in my company have left about her and associations including what company she's a part of if there have ever been deals associated with her tickets Etc now let's say that Juanita is actually someone who I really think I need to reach out to I think that she has potential um into turning into a customer for us what I'm going to do is enroll her in a sequence if I check mark her name and click enroll in sequence I can choose a set of emails to send her a sequence is a way to automate your sales Outreach so it's a set of targeted and timed emails that help you nurture your leads so on the left hand side you'll be able to see the different steps Juanita will go through once she's enrolled in the sequence so as soon as I click Send now she'll get this automated email then in one business day I'll get a task to call her and then in three business days after that another automatic email will be sent out now let's say Juanita has responded or booked a meeting with me through the Hub swap meetings link after this fourth automated email she will automatically be unenrolled from all of these subsequent emails so that takes away a lot of the manual pressure of knowing oh do I need to unenroll her from the sequence I would hate to have her you know go through this email once she's already booked a meeting no problems there hubot got you covered let's actually go into creating a sequence in your hubot account if you click into automations you can click create sequence and here you'll be able to either start with a pre-made sequence or start from scratch now a couple things that I want to note about sequences one it is for our Pro and Enterprise customers two you can create up to 5,000 sequences and believe me that's enough for you folks and three you are limited to 500 emails sent per day another cool thing about sequences is in addition to sending emails and tasks you can also also connect to your LinkedIn sales Navigator account if you have one and you can get task reminders to send inmail and connection requests as well let's actually go through the process of creating one so I want to start with an automated email and I want to make sure that that's a new thread and I want it to be this first email if that looks good I'm going to click the add button and I want to send another email in the same thread which is my prospecting email number two now if you notice you can actually AB test these emails this is a great way to optimize your sequences and make sure you're communicating in the very best way so I've seen a lot of folks uh send emails maybe some have their contacts name in the subject line um sometimes they don't but in order to really know what works it is a great idea to AB test so that you're really optimizing this experience and of course I want to also add a task to call this contact after two business days now as you can tell sequences is a really really great way to automate that followup so you don't have to remember oh it's been 2 days since I've talked to this person maybe I should call them maybe I should email them this does all that heavy lifting for you another really cool thing about sequences that I want to highlight is that you can actually automatically enroll people in sequences through through workflows so if I head on over to workflows I can create a workflow that says if they filled out a specific form then I can enroll them in a specific email and I can even choose the sender name and email address to make sure it's coming from their point of contact now I really like this option uh I do think one of the benefits about sequences is that you can edit the sequence before you send it out so that way you can make it a little bit more personalized if you'd like by doing it via workflows of course you can't edit that sequence as you might like to so just keep that in mind that a real benefit is you can edit it and make it more personalized when you send it via workflow that might not always be the case all right so let's say Juanita got your series of emails via sequences and she actually booked a meeting with you this is great news right this is what every sales rep wants well the next up is for you to do your research and really understand everything you can about tanita before you go into that call so that on the call you're asking the right questions this is where the prospecting workspace really makes sense so if you go into Juanita's information you can actually click this view record and be taken to her record in the CRM here you'll be able to see even more information about her dating back to as soon as she became a contact with you another thing that I love about rcrm is the ability to add playbooks and a Playbook is basically a Content card that helps you guide the conversation so for example here is our qualification Playbook and our sales reps have this open for every single call that they make so the first thing that the Playbook tells them to do is ask them for a budget ask them who will be involved in this purchasing decision what challenges they struggle with and how quickly they need to solve your problem this is a great way to make sure that one you are taking notes on this customer when the time comes and it's also a great thing to look at beforehand so that you know how you want to guide this conversation so those notes of course will live on the CRM record but it'll also live on the lead record as well in your prospecting workspace so as you can see it changed to connected and we're able to see our recent Communications I loged a call with her and here are the notes that we jotted down playbooks are available for pro and Enterprise users all right so let's say the call with Juanita went really well and she wants to take it to the next step and schedule a demo with her boss and myself this is great news this is what I want to hear as a sales rep now instead of working her in the leads tab she's now gone up in my eyes and I think of her as an opportunity not just a lead so I am actually going to create a deal with her in my CRM now your deals tab is where you're going to track all of your opportunities you can create deals either manually or automatically via workflows for today though let's just quickly create a deal for Juanita manually and there's actually a lot of automation that we can add to this pipeline if I just click into actions and click add pipeline automation I'm able to create workflows for each stage of the deal process so for example when a deal reaches contract Cent I can actually create a workflow that sends myself a task to follow up with the contract in 3 days so I just want to reiterate all of the automation we were able to add throughout the entire sales process one we were able to automatically route our leads two we were able to automatically get them into our prospecting workspace and send them automatic sequences we were also able to create playbooks and make sure our notes are showing up on the proper contact records and we were able to create deals for them and automate actions within that deal pipeline to make sure that we're staying on top of our prospects so we don't let anything slip through the cracks if this seems like something that you folks want to use as well make sure you sign up for our free CRM today if this wasn't
