HubSpot Review
Pros
- HubSpot makes it easy to ensure that all our Blog content is optimized for SEO - it helps us with keywords, meta descriptions, CTAs, images, and more. With every blog that goes up, I'm confident it is as strong as it can be.
- HubSpot has helped us organize leads and contacts into lists so we can provide helpful and relatable information to nurture them along on the buying process and also see each client as a trustworthy, knowledgeable source.
- With HubSpot, we can track the success and shortcomings of eNewsletters. HubSpot helps with the setup process, gives sending guidelines (time, subject line, etc), and gives us a depth of information about who opens the emails, when, what they click, and more.
Cons
- It would be nice to be able to select a date range when checking the rank and success of keywords in the keyword reporting tool
- HubSpot sends great, thorough monthly reports for each of our client, but it'd be nice if we had the option to get the reports quarterly instead.
- Right now HubSpot Ads Add-On/Integration only works with LinkedIn and Google Adwords - so we're still using other resources for things like Facebook, Twitter, etc.
- We'd love to see HubSpot find a way to use Instagram and be able to schedules posts like we can on other social channels.
Return on Investment
- More qualified leads
- Better Developed Lead Nurturing Process
- Stronger, well-placed content has helped build awareness and brand identity
- Increased revenue for several clients
