Mastering HubSpot LinkedIn Integration with Sales Navigator

Does HubSpot have a LinkedIn integration?

Yes, you can integrate HubSpot with LinkedIn Ads, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and more through various integrations to boost your ROI.

HubSpot LinkedIn Native Integration

• Requires a Sales Hub Professional or Enterprise seat.
• Requires a LinkedIn Sales Navigator Advanced or Advanced Plus account.

This integration connects only to your LinkedIn Sales Navigator. Each user must connect their LinkedIn Sales Navigator app from the Marketplace using their unique HubSpot login.

Please note that importing contacts from LinkedIn is not possible with this integration. However, if you have a LinkedIn Sales Navigator Advanced Plus account, you can also connect HubSpot with LinkedIn Sales Navigator and Business Manager via CRM Sync.

HubSpot LinkedIn Third Party Integration

For third-party apps, you don’t need Sales Hub Professional or Enterprise, or a LinkedIn Sales Navigator Advanced or Advanced Plus account. Each user will connect their LinkedIn Sales Navigator app from the HubSpot Marketplace using their unique HubSpot login.

With third-party integrations like Hublead, you will be able to:

• Import Contacts: Bring LinkedIn contacts into HubSpot, enhancing your hubspot contacts with detailed LinkedIn data.
• Sync LinkedIn Messages: Keep your LinkedIn messages updated in HubSpot, ensuring that all communications are tracked and visible.
• Enrich Contact Profiles: Add LinkedIn profile information to your HubSpot contact records, providing a more comprehensive view with emails & phone numbers.
• Import Connection Requests: Gain access to data to your CRM for better and clearer reports.
• View LinkedIn data: View shared connections within your sales team on HubSpot contact records, and prospect mutual connection together to foster effective outreach and boost team synergy.

This HubSpot LinkedIn integration streamlines your CRM, enhances marketing automation, and provides valuable LinkedIn insights to drive personalized outreach and improve your sales team’s performance.

Insightful Lead Data at Your Fingertips

Have you ever wished for a crystal ball to reveal insights about your leads? With HubSpot’s integration of LinkedIn Sales Navigator, it’s almost like having one. Access job titles, company news, and other critical information directly within HubSpot contact and company records.

Navigate effortlessly to sections containing LinkedIn information, where the ‘Icebreakers’, ‘Get introduced’, and ‘Related leads’ tabs open doors to enriched sales conversations. This treasure trove of data not only informs but also transforms your approach to prospecting.

Direct Outreach with InMail Integration

The power to send InMails without leaving the HubSpot platform is a game-changer for sales outreach. Imagine crafting personalized messages to your LinkedIn prospects and sending them directly from HubSpot. Not only does this cut down on the time spent switching between platforms, but it also keeps your communications neatly organized within HubSpot’s CRM for a full-circle view of your prospect interactions.

And with the HubSpot mobile app, this convenience extends beyond the desktop, allowing sales tasks to travel with you.

Syncing LinkedIn Messages to HubSpot

Regrettably, the standard integration cannot import messages.

However, Hublead integration enables the logging of LinkedIn messages with HubSpot, preserving data from LinkedIn interactions, automating message logging into the CRM.

Install the chrome extension and click on "Sync messages" button into each conversation, allowing you to sync LinkedIn messages to HubSpot in 1 click.

Depending on your subscription, Hublead can automatically synchronize messages whenever you initiate a chat with leads.

Editing HubSpot Properties via LinkedIn

Integration tools like Hublead allow you to edit all HubSpot properties directly from your LinkedIn interface, a significant advantage.

This facilitates workflow efficiency by enabling direct updates to properties from LinkedIn.

Lead Generation with LinkedIn Sales Navigator Leads List

A cluttered leads list can be as daunting as a haystack when you’re searching for that golden needle. LinkedIn Sales Navigator’s integration with HubSpot brings order to chaos, empowering sales teams to segment and manage leads with precision.

Use the ‘Save in Sales Navigator’ feature to categorize leads within HubSpot, and watch as the Sales Navigator Leads List simplifies the hunt for additional prospects in the Related Leads and Recommended Leads tabs at the same company. It’s prospecting made efficient, targeted, and, dare we say, enjoyable.

Enriching Contact Profiles with LinkedIn Data

There’s something almost magical about having a comprehensive view of your contacts. With HubSpot’s LinkedIn Sales Navigator integration, you can see LinkedIn profile details within HubSpot records, painting a complete picture of your leads and customers. This integration pulls in data like job titles, company details, and industry information, enriching your contact profiles and providing a well-rounded context for your outreach strategies.

With tools like Hublead, you can:

• Import LinkedIn contacts to HubSpot
• Enhance your HubSpot CRM with detailed LinkedIn data
• Improve sales
• Decrease data entry
• Send automated drip sequences to new connections

This not only improves sales but also decreases data entry and allows for the sending of automated drip sequences to new connections through marketing automation.

Building Targeted Campaigns Using LinkedIn Data

Combining LinkedIn Sales Navigator with HubSpot CRM gives a detailed view of lead and account profiles, enables LinkedIn data access within HubSpot, and allows direct sending of InMails from contact and company records. This streamlines campaign targeting and personalization efforts.

Using LinkedIn’s advanced targeting and segmentation tools, you can create highly targeted and effective campaigns within HubSpot.
