Survey for Unsubscribes

SOLVE

We are hopeful to collect feedback from our contacts that unsubscribe from our emails, asking them a quick couple of questions about why specifically they are unsubscribing. I can't seem to figure out how to do this... does HubSpot have this feature available? If not, it'd be great to have some sort of feature implemented that allows for us to collect feedback from our contacts that unsubscribe.

Survey for Unsubscribes

SOLVE

Hi @VFiorino,

 

Good news, there is now a beta for this under Settings > Product updates > All > Unsubscribe Feedback Survey Available on Preference Pages:

 


Unsubscribe Feedback Survey Available on Preference Pages

 

What is it?

You can now trigger an unsubscribe survey on the preference page to collect feedback about why a contact is unsubscribing from all emails and view this feedback for more insights about your marketing email strategy. Turn every unsubscribe into a learning opportunity without adding friction to the unsubscribe process.

 

Why does it matter?

Automatically collect feedback when a contact unsubscribes from all email, giving Marketers actionable insights to reduce churn and improve content relevance.

 

How does it work?

Within the Subscriptions settings tab, Marketers can toggle on the unsubscribe survey.

 

Once this setting is toggled on, anytime a contact unsubscribes from all email communications, they will see a questionnaire on the confirmation page inquiring as to the reason for the unsubscribe. The survey includes 5 preset options:

  • I'm no longer interested in your company
  • I didn't sign up for your mailing list
  • I receive too many emails
  • Your emails are not relevant to me
  • Other (50-character count open text field)

How to Access Data

There will be several ways to view the unsubscribe survey results, including --

  • Contact Record Page (in the Activity Timeline)
  • Custom Report Builder (contacts > marketing email activities > gave reason for unsubscribe)
    • Note: This option will be available for Professional and Enterprise tier customers only.

Additionally, we're aiming to have unsubscribe survey results accessible in the email post-send performance page in the near future.

 

Callouts

  • Available across all Marketing Hub tiers (Free, Starter, Professional, Enterprise)
    • Feature is enabled by default for all Free/Starter MH customers and new MH customers (customers who created an account after launch date).
    • Feature is not enabled by default for legacy Pro/ Ent MH customers
  • Multi-language support. Page will be available in the language the user viewed their Manage Preference pages in.
  • The setting does not block or prohibit users from unsubscribing, it is optional and not required. Any responses received will be stored and made available to you.

Omissions

  • No API support
  • No customization of the survey questions

Who gets it?

All hubs and tiers, Marketing Starter, Marketing Pro, Marketing Enterprise, Marketing+ Pro, Marketing+ Enterprise


If you're not seeing this yet, you'll have to be a bit more patient or reach out to your HubSpot customer success manager.

 

Best regards!

Hi @VFiorino,

 

At the moment, this requires the help of a developer and custom development on the manage preference / unsubscribe templates, see here: https://knowledge.hubspot.com/marketing-email/how-do-i-customize-my-email-opt-out-page#edit-subscrip...

 

Out of the box, this is unfortunately not possible at this stage. However, other users have requested this before: https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Short-survey-asking-people-why-they-unsubscribed/idc-...

 

These requests submitted to the HubSpot Ideas section of the community are reviewed by the HubSpot product team, based on their popularity and the assumed demand. This one is already set to "In planning" by the product team but has sat there for a while so I'd recommend commenting and upvoting.

 

You can also help other HubSpot users find this request more easily (and drive traction) by accepting my reply as a solution. I'd appreciate it, too.

 

Have a great day!
