2022 Goals

[ThatChristinaG]

Happy New Year, HubFans!!!

Would love to start the year by sharing our goals for the future and see if we can all help each other. 

What do you want to accomplish in 2022?

How can the members of this group help you?

My goals for 2022 are to move to Account Based Marketing for my company.

Here are the Milestones:

1. Identify from our existing 250 customers what our Ideal Customer looks like
2. Use Intent Data with topics relevant for my ideal customers
3. Create a list of 150 Target Accounts, identify the stakeholders using Sales Navigator and update ABM details on Hubspot accordingly.
4. Get my head around LinkedIn Ads and start using Hubspot to automate adding and removing our target accounts from LinkedIn Audiences and then delivering ads to our target accounts and contacts
5. Create a personalised landing page for each audience - using multiple CTA's that reference the particular vertical the company are in. All offers at this stage will be ungated.
6.  Engaged accounts to move to the next stage - with gated personalised content
7. InMail, Phone Calls and Emails - build a closer relationship and identify the stakeholders
8. Book meetings and demonstations
9. Get more customers!

That's the plan anyway!

Wish me luck!

Which platform will you use or where will you get the intent data?

We have a big hiary audacious goal for 2022!

We have been partners for the last 3 years, and this year I want to build on the experience we have gained to go all out with the Sales Enterprise Hub and offer Enterprise Sales Coaching! Currently working on a plan with our CAM, but this is perfect for us and our existing expertise. We'll also expand our sales tech offering too.

Watch this space 🙂

I'm open to opportunities that comes with using hubspot as a tool in Content marketing.

My goal for 2022 with HubSpot is to take this system out for a spin and see what it can really do.  We spent 2021 implmenting and getting use to housing data in a CRM.  We launched our first marketing campaign in December with fascinating results that helped prepare for the many things we have planned in 2022.  I am most excited about using HubSpot for trade shows and conferences.  

[DaveMeyer]

Great topic Christina! At BizzyWeb, we have a few goals: become a Diamond Partner, run a successful HUG program for Manufacturers (our focus client type this year), we're rebuilding our website in HubSpot CMS (finally!) and bringing on 3 new HubSpot-focused employees. 

I'd personally like to speak at INBOUND 2022 (hopefully in person!), we're launching a new podcast this year, and I'd like to present for HubSpot and/or Google in at least 10 new states this year (I've done 28 states so far). 

On the personal/non-professional level I'm going to ditch the pandemic pounds. Noom is working great for me so far. 

Cheers to an amazing new year all!

[DavidDennison]

Hi everyone!

This year I have some pretty HUGE goals!

I've actually been lucky enough to come across a great opportunity this year and will be moving to Germany for about 7 months 🙌🥳

- The first and foremost of my goals is to be able to pull it off successfully and learn to live in a new place, as well as travel to as many different places as I can! I've never lived outside of the US (besides when I was deployed to Iraq) so I'm pretty nervous/scared/excited/stressed! 😂

- Secondly, I want to move into freelancing full time so that I can focus on what really drives me and my passions, which are SEO, Content Marketing, and Social Media Marketing. I want to be able to expand on the abilities and expertise that I currently offer my clients. I feel as if I won't be able to do this without the freedom and personal time management that comes with freelancing. Being financially able to sustain full-time freelancing definitely makes the top of my goals!

- Third, I want to continue building my personal brand and land at least two or three speaking engagements within the marketing community. Traditionally I've always had clients that were service-based (garage door repair, accountants, etc.) and didn't really need to personally brand myself as most of my clients came by word of mouth. (I already know what you're thinking "This guy is in marketing?" 😫😂). That's definitely changing in 2022 and I'm going to make a huge splash! 🙌🙌

- Fourthly, I'm currently in the works of starting a project that shows how to use HubSpot from beginning to end to start a business, including building a website. I want to show others that with the right tools and the right community, they can make their dreams happen too. So my goal is to really hunker down and find time out of this busy year to get it kicked off!

- For my fifth goal, I would like to start my journey of learning how to code. While it's not a necessity for what I do, I want to be the guy that knows the digital end of a business from beginning to end. I've tried a few times and it really never clicked for me somehow. I'd really like to get over that hump in 2022 and make it happen!

- Second to last goal of mine, I want to start a project that focuses on not only the marketing industry but the people that make it happen behind the scenes. Kind of like a podcast / YouTube channel that interviews marketers and just lets them tell their story. Kind of like Humans of HubSpot, but on a much larger scale! We're such an integral part of many businesses, yet sometimes there isn't much in the way of recognition or appreciation for what we do. Let's change that!

- Lastly, I want to continue helping business owners and other marketers make their dreams come true. I want to expand the ways that I help people, even including here on the HubSpot Community. I'm not exactly sure what this looks like yet, but I'm working on it! If you have any ideas, I'm all ears!

I'm not a robot so I'll give ya some personal goals as well:

• Stop biting my nails.
• Learn not to get annoyed in traffic (autobahn here I come! 🏎️)
• Stop going down rabbit holes and wasting 6 hours on Wikipedia and digital marketing blogs (We've all been there....right? No? Just me? Cool. 😂)
• Continue to grow as a person and become a better man for my amazing girlfriend who deserves the world!
• Finally, be able to afford and build my dream gaming/work PC. (If anyone has $10K they don't know what to do with, please call me immediately 😎).
• Learn to not bottle up stress and use it as a motivator.

How can you help?

Well if you are someone who:

• Has lived in Germany, send me a message! Would love to chat!
• Knows of a client that needs SEO, Content Marketing, or Social Media Marketing - I'd love to get in touch and see if we'd be a good fit!
• Is in need of a digital marketer to be a speaker or know someone who needs a speaker, I'd appreciate the opportunity to introduce myself! (Looking at you HubSpot 👀😉)
• Knows how to code - I'd love to chat!
• Knows a few people who might be a good fit to host a podcast or YouTube channel with me - let's talk! If you would like to be a guest, that's great too!

If you match any of the above, feel free to send me a message, and let's make some magic happen! Even if you aren't any of the above, if there's any way that I can help you achieve your goals in 2022, let me know! This is OUR year, and we're all going to do great things together! 💪

Can't wait to see what this year brings! Let's get it! 🙌

[GPantelatos]

[DavidDennison]

Good luck getting that Tesla! haha Love that for you! 🤞

[dperolio]

Haha, thanks David!

Statistically it's pretty unlikely, especially since I've got a very late start, but I've got some good ideas (that I might not have time to implement 😔) and I'm going to do my best.

Always aim for the sky, am I right?

[DavidDennison]

Always! If you ever need someone to bounce some ideas off of or need help in any way, don't hesitate to reach out!

[AHooks]

Goals for this year would be the streamlining of several current manual processes to reduce the wasted back and forth in the following areas.

Quoting process - currently a manual process - Bring into hubspot for a better and more effecient flow.

Support Pipelines - Better define the support pipeline process for a more detailed reporting flow. 

Knowledgebase - Build support knowledgebase for support team.

Improvement of Sales, Support and production dashboards.  -

One major issue within hubspot at the moment for support is a way to easily track support issues on a 30\60\90 day after a device installation so we can better track defects and\or compliance issues.  It can be done for one but not all on one report. 

Another would be a way to better validate a quoute for a customer. 

There are a few others but overall we want to have the tools available for a more effecient working process.
