Integration Logic

  • HubSpot Native Connectors

    HubSpot CRM Suite and Marketing Hub are built on the same unified database. This means there is no traditional 'syncing' of data; they share the same core objects (Contacts, Companies, Deals, Tickets). When a sales rep updates a contact's lifecycle stage in the CRM, that change is instantly available in the Marketing Hub for segmentation, list building, and workflow enrollment. Conversely, when a contact fills out a form or interacts with a marketing email, that activity is immediately logged on their contact record, visible to the sales team in the CRM. This creates a single source of truth and enables real-time, bidirectional data flow, aligning sales and marketing efforts seamlessly.
