Adding 'Send Internal Marketing E-mail' for deal-based workflows as well

Hi community!

 

We are working a lot with partners. They usually provide us with leads and get a commission when their lead buys our service.

 

We'd like to send our partners an e-mail whenever one of their leads has signed a contract. Basically, this allows us to notify them and have a celebration moment.

 

We want to use the customer's 'Deal stage' as a trigger to send the e-mail to the partner.

In the e-mail, we'd like to provide more deal properties, such as the contract start- and end date, the price, etc.

 

We would be able to very easily do this if we could send an "internal Marketing Email" from deal-based workflows. Currently, this feature is only available for contact-based workflow.

 

The issue is that our e-mail needs the values of deal properties, which we will not be able to fill if we use a contact-based workflow. The alternative would be to "send an internal email notification", but this can only be done to Hubspot users and our partners do not have a Hubspot account in our portal.

 

Having this option would make it incredibly easy to automatically update external stakeholders (usually partners) about certain deals. Ideal to build a strong relationship with them. 

 

Please add this. If anyone can help me with a work-around, please let me know. I am also available for additional questions or comments.

I raised this with support and it is very much wanted for our team with a similar situation in that we want to notify external stakeholders who do not have HubSpot accounts when certain properties are updated in deals.  I've upvoted, please make this possible. We just need the ability to type in a static email address with internal marketing emails on deal-based workflows. It looks like this used to be possible (when trying to find a solution to my problem and seeing previous threads in the community: https://community.hubspot.com/t5/Lists-Lead-Scoring-Workflows/Ability-to-add-links-to-internal-notif... to name a few)

We have an almost identical use case.  This would be very useful for us.

Please, please make this happen. I'm not sure why it isn't already a feature.

Yes! I have a bunch of use cases that require a more customized internal email than currently possible with internal email notifications. Frustrating that I can do this on Contact workflows but not on Deal workflows.

Definitely need this as well. We use these emails to automate follow-ups with suppliers based on enquiries made by clients. Although the client can make multiple enquiries (deals) so using contact-based workflows just doesn't work for this.

 

Our client is associated with the deal and the supplier is just a property identifier on the deal rather than an associated contact.

Upvoted this, have a usecase where a client wants to update stakeholders in different regions of deals closing in their vinicity yet I'm surprised this isn't doable.

 

Definitely need this, should really be an option already!

Same as above.  There are workarounds, but I'd prefer not to add fields, clone values, etc.  I feel like with a little work, you could leverage what already exists in the Contact Workflow and apply it to Deals.

This is desperately needed for our business. 

 

Is there any update on this at all?
