Hunter offers a free HubSpot integration that allows adding new and already saved leads from Hunter to Hubspot.
This tutorial will show you how to connect Hunter to your HubSpot account and synchronize newly created and existing leads.
How to connect Hunter to HubSpot
To get started, visit the Leads section of your account.
In the left sidebar, find the Integrations section and click on ''➕ New application'';
You will be redirected to the Integrations page, where all available CRM integrations are visible. In this case, click on ''Connect'' in the HubSpot section;
Enter your HubSpot credentials and log in to authorize the integration;
Now you’ll see HubSpot in the “Integrations” sidebar menu and you will be redirected to the HubSpot configuration page to review/update the settings;
From here, you can configure your default HubSpot attributes with Hunter's.
Synchronization between Hunter <> HubSpot
There are several options available to configure your synchronization between Hunter and HubSpot:
You can configure whether you want leads to be updated in Hubspot when they are updated in Hunter and/or deleted from Hunter;
🚩 Duplicate leads: If a lead already exists in HubSpot, no new lead will be created. In this case, an error message will appear on the lead's page with the following message:
Error ❌ Contact already exists
You can also select when a lead should be created in HubSpot:
when you create a lead in Hunter,
when an email is sent from Hunter Campaigns to the lead,
or opt to do this sync manually*.
💡 In case you opt for a manual synchronization → When you click on a lead's page, a button will appear under ''Synchronization''. Click on ''Sync this lead'' to manually update it in HubSpot.
If you already had existing leads before connecting Hunter with HubSpot, those leads won't be synchronized by default. Nonetheless, it's pretty simple to synchronize them in HubSpot by clicking the ''Synchronize X leads'' button on the integration's settings page;
Your synchronized leads can have a dedicated Contact Owner in HubSpot. To enable that option, select the assigned person from your team:
It's also possible to create a deal in HubSpot every time a lead is created in Hunter, by selecting the appropriate box.
