How to create and send marketing emails

Email marketing is a powerful way to reach your target audience and grow your business. HubSpot's Marketing Hub makes it easy to create and send marketing email campaigns that are effective and engaging.

Get Your Email Marketing Checklist


To create a marketing email campaign in HubSpot, you

  • Define your goals. What do you want to achieve with your campaign? Do you want to generate leads, increase sales, or build brand awareness? Once you know your goals, you can start to think about your audience. Who are you trying to reach with your campaign? What are their interests and needs?

  • Create your email content. Your email should be clear, concise, and informative. It should also be personalized to your audience. Use their names, interests, and pain points to make your email more relevant and engaging.

When you're ready to send your email campaign, you can use HubSpot's built-in tools to track its performance. You can see how many people opened your email, clicked on your links, and unsubscribed. This data can help you to improve your future email campaigns and get better results.

HubSpot Emails can be created and modified easily with its drag-and-drop editor,  providing an intuitive interface to scale email marketing efforts for your business. Use marketing email campaigns to share updates with your subscribers and promote special offers.HubSpot drag-and-drop email editor

How to track email open rates and click-through rates

Two essential email marketing metrics to track are email open and click-through rates:

  • Email open rate: The percentage of recipients who open your email. If your open rate is low, people are not seeing your emails as much as you'd like. This could be because your subject line is not compelling enough, your email subject is not relevant to the email recipients, or your email delivery is poor, e.g., your mail ends up in spam or promotion folders.

Good email open rates are above 22%

  • Click-through rate: The percentage of recipients who click on a link in your email. If your click-through rate is low, people are not clicking on the links in your email. This could be because the links are not relevant to the recipient or because the email is not well-designed.

Good email click-through rates are above 6.5%

The Email Health Dashboard tracks these and additional metrics and a breakdown of your email engagement metrics for each campaign. You can also see how your email performance compares to industry benchmarks.

Email Health Dashboard

Additional for optimizing email open rates and click-through rates in HubSpot include:

  • Use a unique tracking link for each email campaign. This will allow you to track how many people click on each link in your email.

  • Use a split test to compare the performance of different subject lines. This will help you determine which subject lines are most likely to get your emails opened.

  • Personalize your emails as much as possible. This will make your emails more relevant to your recipients and increase their chances of opening and clicking on the links. Hubspot further allows you to customize email send times based on recipients'  location (based on their IP address).

  • Use a call to action in every email. This will tell your recipients what you want them to do, such as visit your website, download a white paper, or sign up for a webinar.

HubSpot Sales Hub

With its robust features and tailored solutions, HubSpot Sales Hub equips Sales Teams with the tools to convert leads effectively, collaborate with prospects and internal team members, and track sales performance.

At its core, the Sales Hub revolves around five essential elements: Data, Content, Messaging, and Reporting, each playing a pivotal role in enhancing sales efficiency and driving revenue growth.

1. Data

HubSpot Sales Hub data model

The foundation of any successful sales strategy lies in data-driven decision-making. HubSpot's Sales Hub leverages comprehensive data management tools allowing businesses to centralize and organize customer information. This includes contact details, interaction history, deal stages, and more.

By having a holistic view of customer data, sales teams can better understand their prospects, tailor their approach, and nurture leads effectively throughout the sales funnel.

CRM and Lead Management

Data management in HubSpot's Sales Hub revolves around two critical components: CRM (Customer Relationship Management) and Deals. The CRM system is the central repository for all customer data, providing a comprehensive view of interactions and history with leads and customers.

Lead management is the process of identifying, qualifying, and nurturing leads until they are ready to become your customers. Lead Generation is essential to many marketing, business development, and sales processes. Using CRM properties like Persona and Lifecycle Stage helps you:

      • define and manage who is where in the buyer's journey and

      • define appropriate action items, personalized and (on pro-level and above) automated nurturing.

Understanding Lead Scoring

Lead scoring approaches, manual or predictive, enable automatic prioritization of leads based on thousands of data points and machine learning approaches.

      • Qualify leads and move them through the sales funnel. Ensure that your sales team only spends time on the most qualified leads.

      • Track and measure your lead management process. Improve your lead management process and close more deals.

CRM and Deals

On the other hand, Deals allow sales teams to organize and track their sales pipeline, enabling them to efficiently manage prospects through different stages of the sales process. By leveraging these data-driven tools, sales teams can gain valuable insights into customer interactions, make informed decisions, and drive revenue growth.

2. Content

Captivating and informative content is vital for engaging prospects and driving them toward conversion. HubSpot's Sales Hub empowers sales professionals with content creation and management capabilities, enabling them to craft personalized email templates, sales documents, and collateral. Moreover, the platform offers content tracking and analytics, allowing sales reps to gauge the effectiveness of their content and make data-backed improvements to their outreach efforts.

3. Messaging

Communication is the lifeblood of sales, and the Messaging component in HubSpot's Sales Hub ensures that sales teams can connect with leads and customers seamlessly. The platform provides communication tools, including email sequencing, live chat, and team email, to facilitate smooth and timely interactions. This helps build strong relationships with prospects and customers while allowing sales reps to manage and track conversations efficiently.

Sales Emails

Sales emails are a core component of any sales strategy, and HubSpot's Sales Hub provides a user-friendly interface for creating and sending personalized sales emails. With an array of customizable templates and the ability to track email opens and click-through rates, sales reps can gauge engagement levels and identify the most responsive prospects. HubSpot's email sequencing feature also enables sales reps to automate follow-up emails, ensuring consistent communication and increasing the likelihood of nurturing them into sales-qualified leads, opportunities/deals, and, eventually, customers.

Calls

Effective phone communication remains a crucial aspect of the sales process, and HubSpot's Sales Hub streamlines this through its call functionality. With the ability to make calls directly from the platform and automatically log call details and recordings, sales reps can maintain accurate records of their interactions. Furthermore, call analytics provide valuable insights, allowing reps to assess call duration, frequency, and outcomes, thus refining their approach and optimizing call performance.

Meetings

Scheduling meetings with prospects and customers can be time-consuming, but HubSpot's Sales Hub simplifies the process with its Meetings feature. Sales reps can share their availability through personalized meeting links, enabling leads to schedule appointments conveniently. Additionally, automated reminders and integrations with calendar platforms reduce no-show rates, ensuring that sales reps can maximize their meeting opportunities and focus on building strong connections with prospects.

Templates

Streamlining communication is vital to maintain consistency and efficiency in sales outreach. HubSpot's Sales Hub offers a library of customizable email templates that sales reps can leverage to tailor their messages to different leads. By saving time on repetitive tasks, sales teams can engage with more prospects and provide personalized experiences that resonate with potential customers. Analyzing template performance also allows reps to fine-tune their messaging for better results.

Quotes

Providing accurate and professional-looking quotes is essential when it comes to closing deals. HubSpot's Sales Hub simplifies the process with its quote creation and management features. Sales reps can generate quotes directly from the platform, ensuring all relevant deal details are captured and presented professionally to prospects. The ability to track quote status and receive notifications when quotes are viewed or accepted enables sales teams to promptly follow up and move deals forward, expediting the sales cycle and boosting conversion rates.

4. Reporting

To continually improve sales performance, it is crucial to have access to insightful data and analytics. HubSpot's Sales Hub excels by providing robust reporting and performance tracking features. Sales teams can monitor key metrics, track deal progress, and gain valuable insights into their sales processes. This data-driven approach allows them to identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement, facilitating more informed decision-making and increased sales success.

Reporting

The Reporting functionality in HubSpot's Sales Hub empowers sales teams to delve into comprehensive performance analytics. With detailed reports on key metrics like lead generation, deal progression, and revenue generation, sales managers can gain valuable insights into their team's overall performance. These reports enable data-driven decision-making, helping managers identify top-performing reps, spot areas that need improvement, and optimize sales processes for greater efficiency.

5. Automation

Efficiency is paramount in modern sales operations, and the Sales Hub leverages automation to save valuable time and effort. Through automation, businesses can set up personalized workflows and automated tasks based on specific triggers or actions taken by prospects. This allows sales reps to focus on high-priority activities, such as engaging with qualified leads and closing deals, while routine tasks are handled automatically.

Sequences

HubSpot's Sequences feature enables sales teams to automate personalized and timely email outreach to prospects. With Sequences, sales reps can create a series of pre-defined emails sent automatically based on the recipient's specific triggers or actions. This automation ensures consistent follow-ups and nurturing, even when dealing with a large number of leads. Sales reps can tailor the content and timing of each email to suit the prospect's behavior, ensuring a more personalized and relevant communication approach. Additionally, Sequences provide real-time notifications when a prospect interacts with the email, allowing reps to respond promptly to engagement and focus on the most interested leads.

Workflows

Workflows in HubSpot's Sales Hub empower sales teams to automate complex tasks and processes. Whether it's lead qualification, deal routing, or task assignment, workflows streamline repetitive actions and ensure no leads fall through the cracks. Sales teams can set up workflows based on specific criteria, actions, or time-based triggers. For example, when a lead meets specific qualifications, the Workflow can automatically assign them to the appropriate sales rep, send a follow-up email, and add them to a specific deal pipeline. This level of automation reduces manual efforts, enhances team productivity, and fosters a more systematic and organized approach to sales, ultimately leading to higher conversion rates and improved customer experience.


Part of the HubSpot Sales Hub core features, these interconnected components synergize to equip businesses with the tools and insights necessary to create influential sales strategies, foster enduring customer relationships, and attain continuous growth in the dynamic digital arena. By fully leveraging the potential of these elements, organizations can unleash the true power of the HubSpot Sales Hub and revolutionize their sales approach, enabling them to thrive in a competitive market landscape.

HubSpot Service Hub

It also allows businesses to track article views and gather insights into customer behavior.

3. Live Chat and Conversations Inbox

Live chat and the Conversations Inbox feature enable real-time customer communication across multiple channels. Live chat allows businesses to provide immediate assistance, answer questions, and resolve real-time issues. The Conversations Inbox centralizes all customer communications into a single dashboard, including emails, chats, and social media messages. This unified view simplifies agent workflows and ensures consistent and personalized interactions.

4. Customer Feedback and Surveys

Collecting feedback is vital for understanding customer satisfaction and identifying areas for improvement. HubSpot Service Hub provides tools to gather customer feedback through surveys and forms. Customizable surveys enable businesses to collect specific feedback on support experiences, product satisfaction, and more.

Standard Survey Types include:

  • Net Promoter Score: Use a customer loyalty survey (NPS)  to understand how your customers feel about your brand and product. Once you set up an NPS survey, you should send it to your customers regularly to keep track of customer sentiment.

  • Customer Satisfaction Survey: Use customer satisfaction surveys (CSAT) to get feedback on a customer's experience with your business. You can send this type of survey through email or display it on any web page that has a HubSpot tracking code installed.

  • Customer Effort Score:  Use a customer effort score (CES) survey to determine how your contacts feel about their support experience. Once you set up your survey, you can automatically send it to your customers when a support ticket has been closed.

In addition to industry standard surveys, you can design custom surveys.

The accumulated feedback can be analyzed to identify trends, measure customer sentiment, and drive actionable insights to enhance service delivery.

HubSpot Service Hub users increase customer retention by 15%.

Automation and workflows streamline repetitive tasks and ensure consistent processes. HubSpot Service Hub allows businesses to automate routine actions such as ticket routing, email follow-ups, and knowledge-base article suggestions. By automating these tasks, companies can free up time for agents to focus on more complex support issues, improving efficiency and customer satisfaction.

HubSpot Service Hub users save an average of $10,000 per year on customer service costs.


7. Integrations

HubSpot Service Hub integrates seamlessly with other HubSpot Hubs, such as the Marketing Hub and the Sales Hub, to create a unified platform for customer engagement. This integration allows for a 360-degree view of customers and facilitates seamless handoffs between marketing, sales, and customer service teams. Integration with other third-party tools further extends the functionality of Service Hub, enabling businesses to leverage their existing tech stack.

Businesses can leverage these tools to centralize customer support, enhance self-service options, and provide personalized and efficient support experiences. By utilizing the reporting and analytics capabilities, businesses gain insights into customer behavior, measure performance metrics, and continuously improve customer service strategies.

HubSpot Operations Hub

HubSpot Operations Hub improves data management, process automation, and data quality with improved integrations, robust data quality tools, flexible business process automation, and robust data prep tools.

Reliable data lies at the heart of a successful Operations Hub implementation. Now that you're considering making it one of your core applications, here are the main benefits you can look forward to.

Data Synchronization

With more SaaS tools becoming available every day, data synchronization is critical. According to a HubSpot study, midsize companies use an average of 137 applications, and larger ones use nearly 300 tools; in each application, dozens or hundreds of exchanges produce many points of contact and information exchange. 

What happens if each one of these applications sends data to your CRM in a synchronized, organized workflow? Accurate information at a common meeting point can enhance your operations.

The data sync feature lets you integrate Salesforce, Google, Mailchimp, and many other applications under one umbrella. Plus, the data flow goes both ways. So, you can update databases and external tools directly from the Operations Hub.

Automated Maintenance

You can automate maintenance once data travels from various applications to the Operations Hub. For example, you can prevent duplicate data and inconsistent information from flowing into the centralized repository and automate formatting functions to ensure that all contacts follow the same rules. Do you want all contact information stored in upper- or lowercase letters? Automate this in your operations hub settings.

Customized Automation

With the help of a savvy developer, you can take advantage of Operation Hub's flexibility. This starts with designing workflows that won't slow down your business. Typically, a code, webhook, or action determines the workflow assignment. This can improve customer experiences and internal interactions.
