Your data

HubSpot objects this cookbook focuses on:

Objects to prioritize during catalog sync

  • Deals — pipeline and revenue
  • Contacts — lead acquisition
  • Companies — account-level health
  • Tickets — support SLA

Dashboards to build

Sales pipeline

Answers: Is the team on track to hit quota? Include pipeline value, win rate, average deal size, and closed deals KPIs; deals by stage; and created versus closed over time.

Lead acquisition

Answers: Where are new leads coming from? Include new contacts and MQL KPIs; contacts by source; and contacts created over time.

Support SLA

Answers: Is support keeping up with demand? Include open tickets and average resolution KPIs; volume by priority; and overdue tickets table.

Account health

Answers: Which accounts have risk signals? Combine companies with open tickets and active deals; show deal stage distribution.

Questions to ask by role

Example conversations

Pipeline by stage

Ask: How many deals closed this quarter by pipeline stage? You should see stage breakdown with win rate and pipeline value context. Try next: Filter to enterprise segment only, then ask about average deal cycle length by segment.

Metrics worth defining

Add HubSpot-specific definitions to Connector memory:
  • Pipeline value — sum of open deal amounts
  • Win rate — closed-won deals ÷ total closed deals
  • MQL — your team’s marketing qualified lead criteria
  • Deal cycle length — days from deal created to closed-won
