Integrating Orum with HubSpot can revolutionize your sales process by automating tasks and providing valuable insights. Whether you're an admin or a sales representative, this guide will help you seamlessly set up the Orum-HubSpot integration.
1. Confirm/Create User Permissions
For Admins:
To kickstart your dialing process effectively, it's crucial to grant specific permissions to users in your HubSpot account.
These permissions ensure that your team can access and utilize the integration seamlessly. Follow our easy-to-follow guide for confirming or creating user permissions in HubSpot.
This step will lay the foundation for a smooth integration experience.
2. Create Call Outcomes
For Admins:
In the world of sales, data is power. To make the most of your insights, consider setting up new Call Outcomes (also known as Dispositions) in HubSpot. These custom call outcomes allow you to categorize and track prospect interactions accurately.
To get started, check out our recommended best practices for creating call outcomes and follow the step-by-step instructions to add them to your HubSpot account.
3. Create Automation Rules
For Admins:
One of the key benefits of integrating Orum with HubSpot is the ability to automate repetitive tasks. HubSpot can work for your team by automatically removing prospects from Contact Lists and Sequences after your reps have engaged with them.
Minimum Automation: At the very least, create the first automation listed below to ensure a more efficient workflow:
IF a meeting is booked (Call outcome = Answered - Booked Meeting)
OR the prospect is disqualified (Call outcome = Objection: Not a Priority, etc.):
- THEN set Lead Status (or whichever field your Active Contact Lists are filtered by) to In Progress, Disqualified, etc.
- Note: If you filter your Active Lists by a field like Lead Status, this automation prevents prospects from inadvertently being called again.
- AND Unenroll the contact from Sequence (requires HubSpot Sales Hub Enterprise; if on a lower plan, reps should manually remove prospects from Sequence).
Additional Automation: Consider implementing the following automation for more efficient follow-up:
IF a follow-up is required (Disposition = Busy - Call Later, etc.):
- THEN set Lead Status to In Progress, etc.
- AND Unenroll the prospect from Sequence.
- AND add to a new List for follow-ups: “Hot Leads”.
These automation rules will save you time and ensure that your prospects are appropriately managed throughout the sales process, preventing duplicate calls and ensuring timely follow-ups.
