Salesmsg + HubSpot Work Together

Just in case you're new here, Salesmsg is our all-in-one texting and calling platform.

Using Salesmsg, you can easily text your HubSpot leads and customers from your computer or mobile phone using our Salesmsg app.

Salesmsg is designed to connect easily with HubSpot. It only takes a few clicks to connect your HubSpot account to Salesmsg.

Once you're set up, you can text back and forth with your HubSpot contacts, send out SMS broadcasts, or add automated text messages to any HubSpot workflow—to capture, communicate, convert, and care for your customers.

This is a native, two-way integration. That means you can login to our Salesmsg platform to text and call your HubSpot contacts. Or, if you already love HubSpot, you can use Salesmsg to text and call directly from inside your HubSpot account.

In other words, you never have to leave the HubSpot ecosystem if you don’t want to.

With HubSpot and Salesmsg connected, you're ready to put these powerful texting strategies to work.

Let’s dive in… 

Video 1: Sales Teams - What You Need to Know About SMS

To kick off this mini-course, we're starting with your sales team.

In this video, we give you the four text messages that every sales team should be testing to close more deals using HubSpot and Salesmsg.

Key Insights from Video 1:

  • Qualify Leads with SMS: Use an automated text to qualify your leads. Automated texts with targeted questions help gauge your prospects’ interest and ensure you’re only giving your time to potential customers.

  • Close Multiple Sales at Once: Just like texting a friend, using SMS allows you to address your prospects’ questions, concerns, and objections. By texting several prospects at once, you can move multiple deals through the pipeline.

  • Automate Appointment Reminders: Reduce no-shows for sales demos with automated text reminders, sent from inside your HubSpot account. Texting has proven to increase attendance rates for sales demos.

  • Forget Email. Follow-Up Demos with Texts: After a sales call, continue nurturing the lead with personalized follow-up texts. Thank them for their time, share requested resources and keep your brand top of mind. 

Now that you’ve seen how texting can streamline your sales process, let’s look at how marketers can use HubSpot and Salesmsg to drive more sales. 

Video 2: Marketers - Upgrade Your HubSpot Workflows with SMS 

Next, you'll learn four simple but effective ways your marketing team can use texting to continuously drive engagement and sales.

Key Insights from Video 2:

  • Lead Nurturing: Add a well-timed text message into your nurture HubSpot workflow to ensure leads receive the right information to build a relationship with your brand. This can help shorten the sales cycle.

  • Social Media Engagement: Use the “Text me” strategy in social media. Just add the CTA - “Text me and I’ll send it to you” to LinkedIn, Instagram or YouTube posts. It creates a connection and drives leads without landing pages or other friction.
     
  • Event Reminders: Make sure attendees show up for webinars, demos, or events by sending timely reminder texts. A “We’re live” message can also help catch last-minute registrants.

  • Launches and Promotions: Maximize promotional efforts by adding a couple of well-placed text messages to your campaign. A quick reminder about a sale or promotion can mean the difference between hitting and missing your sales goals.

With marketing covered, let’s see how texting can continue to delight your customers after you’ve made the sale.

  • Onboarding Support: Add simple, welcoming text messages to onboarding HubSpot workflows. Let customers know they can reach out via text if they have questions, ensuring they feel supported from the start.

  • User Activation Reminders: Use text messages to remind customers about key onboarding tasks, such as booking a kickoff call. Short, friendly messages keep customers on track and engaged.
