Add CC and BCC capabilities to emails from HubSpot
We have a need for the option to add CC and BCC to emails that are sent from HubSpot. We have two important use cases for this.
Use case 1: We have a registration form set up on our website. When someone registers, they receive an automated email from us through HubSpot saying "Thank you for registering!". Since we have a lot of different people signing up, it's very important for us to follow up on that email.
If we could add CC to me on the email that is sent out, I could pick up the conversation with the person registering very quickly. I could simply press "Reply" on the email and continue the conversation with the lead.
If I want to do this now with today's HubSpot solution, I'd have to copy/paste the lead's email address from the internal registration confirmation email, write a subject line that wouldn't confuse the lead, and then write the message to the lead. This delays the response time dramatically, and takes up substantially more resources.
Use case 2: If we could add BCC to emails as well, it would give people two great advantages; (1) HubSpot emails could easily be integrated with almost ANY CRM (ex. Email to CRM option), and (2) it would add the contents of the email to the CRM (more than just "Sent Subject Line").
If anything is unclear, I would loooove to explain in more detail.
I would really like to have a cc: field for marketing automation (workflow) emails. Then when an email goes to a client, a copy will go to a department head and that will trigger appropriate action internally. We have people who don't work in HS that should know when certain emails are sent to their clients. A cc: field would be very helpful.
This is ideally a basic functionality that should be available. It's quite disapointing that it isn't there. The ability to CC or BCC on mktg emails is available in most other enterprise applications.
I would like to add cc field to internal emails triggered by workflows. This will help me in keeping the department heads in the loop without unnecessary forwarding of emails.
We have setup a workflow so that sales reps get email belonging to their region once a new lead is assigned, we need the region mangers to be cc'd on those emails so they are aware of the emails and communication being sent. Even if it's not in the cc field just 2 email address to be sent in the same email woudl be extremly helpful.
Use case- When sending the marketing emails, we often would like to add the agent email address as CC in order to share the customer's information and provide a seamless service to customers. It would be a great benefit if the CC feature become available.
