Hubcast 198: Snippets in Gmail, Article Feedback for Knowledge Base, & Another Price Change

This episode of the Hubcast is brought to you by Rambl.

This week HubSpot released a Bot Directory. We dive into what this means (or at least what we think it means!), and where it might be going.

Property of the Week: Ticket Property Series

Close Date

“The day the ticket was closed.”

Another standard property here - but one that will be hugely important to collect feedback and ensure customer delight.

Think: sending feedback survey 1 day or week after close date, OR workflows that send an email to a specific ticket CATEGORY (remember last week) after their close date to provide additional information on succeeding with your product/service.

What’s on Marcus’ Mind

If you're not using 1:1 video in emails  for sales and service (and everything else), what are you waiting for?!

We spent some time talking about how we've been using it individually and how much of an impact it can have on the recipients of our emails.

HubSpot Wishlist: Search for Snippets in Gmail Extension

Another Duffmeister original:

“It's great that when I go to use a Template, Document, or a Sequence in the Chrome Extension I get a pop-up where I can search for what I'm looking for. However, when I go to use a Snippet I just get a big long list of all of my snippets and have to comb through them to find what I'm looking for.

Would love to have a pop-up with the ability to search for Snippets just like you can with Templates, Sequences, and Documents!”

Woohoo! This is a must-have for workflows and I’m so glad it’s here.

Report More Accurately on your Contacts by Editing their Original Source Property

“When looking up properties on a contact record, you’ll now be able to edit the original source property as you see fit. You can also do this in bulk from the contacts dashboard, or through a workflow.

In addition, you can also import contacts and include original source information, updating new contacts in bulk as you add them to the HubSpot CRM.”

An import note on this: "At this time, this does not extend to the original source drill down properties."
