Hi everyone,
We want to measure not only the turnover of team members but also their sales profitability. We make premium payments based on profitability and measure this monthly. While we pay x% premium up to a certain level of profitability, we pay y% higher premium for higher profits. Can we show this as a report in Hubspot?
For example, Joe made a profit of $1K and earned a bonus of $100 based on a 10% bonus rate. Sarah made a profit of $15K and based on the 20% bonus rate, it looks like she earned a bonus of $3K. I wonder if such calculations have been made. In the Hubspot Pro version, I can set a turnover target, but I cannot set a profit target and follow it through the bar.
Thanks in advance.
Hey @FatihSeven , to my knowledge this isn’t something that’s easily set up within Hubspot - especially as there’s quite a lot of conditional/scaling variables. However, if someone else knows, I’d love to hear.
A standard approach I’ve used previously is to export the data on a weekly basis to a pre-filled Google Sheet that has formulas setup in advance. That way you can standardize the export/import into Sheets, and the profitability/commission calculations are done automatically.
I believe there are some plugins that may help, perhaps HubSpot Login and Sign in - however not too sure about the scaling variables you have. worth checking out none the less!
Good luck!

Hey Fatih,
One thing that comes to my mind is this:
- Create a “Commission” pipeline, manage accesses and remove it for all users except yourself if need be.
Create a deal based workflow that creates “Deal 2” (associated to Deal 1) when Deal 1 enter “Closed Won” stage.
Add a step in your workflow to set up your comission % ( eg Branch 1 : if Amount Deal 1 is greater than 50K then set property value of deal 2 to 5%)
Create a calculated field in Deal 2 if you want your amount to be negative
Now go to your Hubspot report, you should be able to stack amounts of each deal based on the association of the 2 deals/owner.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Jeremy
@FatihSeven - How do you currently capture profitability within HubSpot?
To do this out-of-the-box:
- I would get reps to add line items to deals utilsing both the Price and Unit cost properties so the Margin is auto-calculated by HubSpot.
- You could then create a custom calculated deal property to pull the line item Margin up to the Deal record.
The benefit of having the margin at a deal level is that you can then create a custom calculation deal property formatted as a currency - calculation properties are not available at a line item level - to calculate the commission payment for that deal based on the profitability of it.
E.g. If the commission on deals with a margin of less than £10,000 is 10% and over £10,000 is 20% the calculation property would be something like:
IF(([DEAL.margin] < 10000), ([DEAL.margin] * 0.1), ([DEAL.margin] * 0.2))
- As this is a deal property, you can then build a report showing total commission by rep by close month, something like this:
