Basically, all I want to do is track each time someone books a course. On looking at all the pipeline info with "presentations schedules" and "decision maker brought in", I don't think that's going to work for us.
Our process is:
They email or call us
we reply
sometimes they book straight away and other times it's several months later and sometimes not at all.
Some clients come back for 2 or even 3 courses.
What would you suggest is the best course of action please? I'm not a technophobe at all but the whole import thing has got me so confused. I've had to split it all up and have clients and companies so far, but am unsure where to go from here and it's been taking me hours. Also, I am only on the free one - if someone comes back for subsequent courses, does this mean I can't log them?
It sounds like you want to use HubSpot CRM to track the sales of courses to contact and companies, in which case deals and the deal pipeline would be a suitable tool for doing this.
Tickets is really intended for managing customer support issues.
Thanks - I am using the CRM but I can use the deals as part of the CRM can't I? I have transferred across all my clients and took out all the bookings data from my spreadsheet. Now I just need to figure out how I put across all the bookings data and how to match them to my clients.
I'll have to think of a naming system. It seems from what I could see that you can't add a deal directly from a person. This just seemed a bit weird unless I'm missing something.
I'll also wait to see what @Phil_Vallender says on the 'more than one' deal on the free version.
