Hubcast 175: Snippet Filters, Native Shopify Integration, & Oh - More Product Updates!

This episode of the Hubcast is brought to you by our friends at Digital Marketer.

Also, what’s going on with INBOUND Speakers?

Last year, they announced the first wave of breakouts and all of the keynotes and spotlights on April 14, and they still have only announced six speakers total. What’s up with that?

NOTE: The day after we recorded this episode, INBOUND released the speakers list! Do you think maybe their ears were burning??

Property of the Week

First Conversion

The first form a contact submitted.

What could you use this property for?

• Lead intelligence for your salespeople: did this person engage with us first via a piece of content, or from a contact form?
• Reporting on what content gives you the best return on investment
• Super segmented lead nurturing

Great properties to use in tandem with First Conversion: First Page Seen (see: Hubcast 173), Number of Form Submissions, and Recent Conversion.

HubSpot Wish List

Snippets > Filter for Private

“We have a number of team members and the new Snippets tool in HubSpot Sales Pro looks nice. My only concern is that it could get out of control. Would it be possible to do something similar to how you have filters on templates?

As I create a snippet there would be an option to share with the team or make it private." - AJFenlason
