Additional Information
The Sales Hub Professional onboarding has the following limitations:
- Meetings: All meetings are conducted via MS Teams (online conference).
- Maximum meeting participants: Our experience has shown that onboarding meetings are more successful when the number of participants is limited. Therefore, we restrict all onboarding meetings to four participants. If, for specific reasons, more people are required, please discuss this with us in advance.
- Onboarding duration: The onboarding process typically takes place within 3 months. However, if your day-to-day business requires a longer duration, we can extend the onboarding period up to 12 months.
- Questions & Support: We are happy to assist you with your questions outside the defined onboarding framework. Please send your inquiries to service@brandreach.at. You will receive written responses from us with links to solution descriptions and instructions. Please note that the time spent will be billed at the end of the month.
- Basic Onboarding costs & billing: The costs of the Basic Onboarding package are based on the standard prices set by HubSpot, which are mandatory. If you do not require extended support, there will be no additional costs for you.
Additional services related to CRM and the Sales Hub
Apart from the regular Sales Hub onboarding, some of our customers require further assistance. Since these services are only needed on a case-by-case basis, we offer them as optional add-ons that can be selected based on your specific needs. If you require any of these services, please let us know, and we will be happy to assist you.
-
Support for data migration from legacy systems: If you have been storing your data in another CRM system (such as Salesforce, MS Dynamics, Pipedrive, Zoho, etc.) for several years and now wish to migrate it to HubSpot CRM, we can assist you in planning and executing the migration process. We are here to support you as needed.
-
Support for defining, programming, and operating interfaces: HubSpot has a wide range of standardized connectors to integrate with other systems within its ecosystem. If you require assistance with testing and setting up these connectors, we are here to help you.
However, there may be instances where the appropriate connector is not available or does not meet your specific requirements. In such cases, we are more than happy to assist you with the design, programming, and operation of custom interfaces to meet your specific needs.
- Support for CRM setup and configuration: During our onboarding process, we provide you with all the necessary information to set up your HubSpot CRM. However, we understand that sometimes there may be a lack of time or expertise to perform the setup yourself. In such cases, we are more than happy to assist you by conducting the setup on your behalf.
-
Design and implementation of customized training: For businesses that are new to using a CRM system, there may be a need for a more comprehensive training to fully understand and appreciate the benefits it brings. We are more than happy to tailor a customized training package to your specific needs and conduct the relevant training sessions for your teams. Our goal is to ensure that your teams receive the necessary guidance and knowledge to effectively utilize the CRM system.
