Customize some Deal properties with Hubspot contacts

[Lionheart-Paul]

A client would like salespeople to keep a record of critical customer staffmembers in a deal (Decisionmaker, gatekeeper,champion,etc) according to their sales methodology.

Is there a way to create a deal property with a type of "Hubspot Contact" that would work like "Hubspot user", and popuop with a list of contacts attached to the deal?

Hi @Lionheart-Paul, 

We use a very similar sales methodology to your client. Where we map out sales personas as you described, as we have complex deals. I created a HubSpot plug OrgChartHub to enable this functionality from within the Hubspot CRM. 

I hope this helps you and your client. Any questions then please don't hesitate to get in touch. 

Regards,

Hey @Lionheart-Paul at this time the only property that applies to internal users is HubSpot Owner. 

Any HubSpot account users with access to contacts can be designated as contact owners using the HubSpot Owner contact property. 

To add a new HubSpot Owner:

• Add the owner as a user to your account
• Make sure to select a user role that has access to contacts

If your HubSpot account is integrated with Salesforce, the HubSpot Owner property will be populated with the Owner value for your Salesforce Leads and Contacts. For more information on this, check out this article. 

Please note that you can manually add additional users to a contact by creating a custom HubSpot user field type property. Instructions can be found here.

...I undestand that the above does not directly answer your question / acheive your goal. I would reccommend posting your idea above, e.g. custom HubSpot Onwer types to the ideas forum for other members to vote for.
