Why connect HubSpot and Salesforce
HubSpot contacts sit beside GA4 visits, ad clicks and payments. Each customer has a source. It fits into our digital marketing services work.
How HubSpot and Salesforce records line up
HubSpot and Salesforce both store the customer's email address. askotter lowercases and trims it on both sides before matching, so the same person shows up as one customer across the two tools.
Both tools can hold a phone number. Numbers are normalised to one international format before matching, which catches customers who never gave an email.
Shared between the two: the customer email address, the phone number, the company or account and the UTM campaign tags.
Salesforce is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
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.
Salesforce on its own
Salesforce sees leads, accounts and opportunities. It knows which campaign produced a lead only when someone records it there.
Timing. Salesforce opportunity stages move when someone updates them, so pipeline data is as current as the team's CRM habits.
Access. A connected app with read-only access to Lead, Contact, Account and Opportunity.
