Ability to update marketing contact status in real-time
This would benefit anyone using Hubspot's marketing features. Right now we can't change a contact's marketing status in real time. This is a total bummer. Marketing is by nature time sensitive, and having to wait up to 30 days for someone's status to change is less than ideal. Changes to marketing contact status should be implemented immediately, even if that puts you into a new tier in terms of billing. I would be happy to pay a pro-rated increase if it means the changes are implemented immediately.
It is infuriating that the job to change to non-marketing contact status runs monthly, but contact tier calculations and subscription changes calculate daily. You get an invoice right away. Feels like HubSpot purposefully designed this so people are forced to higher contact tiers than needed without the control to manage it appropriately.
100%! I hate this. The fact that HubSpot automatically updates the Marketing Contact list size when you addcontacts, but doesn't update the Marketing Contact list size as you delete them (until the next billing date) feels like a total scam. They make it impossible to know what your actual Marketing contact list size is.
This has been requested since 2021 and is still an issue in 2024, that is nuts. I have hundreds of contacts we need to mark as Non-Marketing NOW, our Marketing emails are stalled until this change takes place. We can't just stop sending Marketing emails for an entire month because HubSpot has some crazy rule about delaying Marketing status changes. Please consider changing this!
