Which marketing brings in paying customers?
Every ad platform takes credit for the same customer. Google, Meta and your email tool can each claim one booking, and they cannot all be right. You need one count you can trust.

How Google Search Console and HubSpot records line up
Google Search Console and HubSpot both report by page. URLs are normalised first (protocol, trailing slash and tracking parameters removed) and then joined page by page.
Shared between the two: the page URL.
What revenue attribution uses from each
Revenue attribution needs a way to connect a touchpoint to a payment.
From Google Search Console that means clicks by landing page. From HubSpot it means closed-won deal amounts and each contact's original source.
These two tools hold no shared customer identifier, so per-customer answers need a third connected tool that each side can match, such as GA4 or your CRM. Daily totals work with these two alone.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
Google Search Console on its own
Search Console sees the search up to the click and stops there. It cannot say whether that visitor booked, bought or left.
Timing. Search Console numbers usually arrive two to three days behind, reported as daily totals per query and page.
Access. The Search Console API with read access to the property.
HubSpot on its own
HubSpot sees the contact and the deal. It cannot see money collected outside it, or ad spend on platforms it is not connected to.
Timing. HubSpot updates contact and deal properties as they change, and keeps the original source and first page seen on each contact.
Access. A HubSpot private app or OAuth connection with read-only CRM scopes.
