How to leverage HubSpot Integrations to boost data-driven campaigns

HubSpot is a powerful tool when it comes to converting leads and attract customers using inbound methods.  But to take marketing campaigns to the next level, a HubSpot Integration with your CRM is essential to avoid data silos and fully take advantage of all data you have at your disposal.
Though HubSpot does provide some analytics, truly efficient data-driven marketing requires taking advantage of information from all sources.

When an integration is needed

In practice, sales processes rely on complex rules that can't always be fully mapped within HubSpot. For our Paris-based customer, CAST Software, Elixir Solutions did not limit itself to a simple integration of contacts and companies.  

In fact, the vision of the client was to use the data from their CRM as to provide more insights into customer behaviour by calculating the number of visits and calculate lead interest, fetching transactional data to define customer profile, or even utilizing geographical information. As they work with large enterprise customers,  clients might be part of a different international sub-entity and are therefore assigned to dedicated sales representatives.  So, in order to run even more relevant and tailored data-driven marketing campaigns, mechanisms were set in place as to feed the HubSpot system with valuable information (not only data!) from the CRM system.

The data-driven marketing was possible

With a full data-driven approach and a tight integration, more valuable information from the CRM can be leveraged. And in the end, this allows for better segmented list and workflows that leads to more efficient marketing and positively impacts sales performance.

Complex integration project

When we started our marketing automation migration project from a former platform to HubSpot, we had to deal with the complexity of integrating it with an internally developed CRM while keeping the level of customization we had. We interviewed several service providers WW, but Elixir was the only one able to support us in this extremely complex integration project. They provided us with very sharp expertise that enabled us to successfully complete the project.
