Hello together, Hubspot absolutely needs an intermediate function in marketing for pure email marketing. The leap from €40 to over €700 is simply too big for most companies, which means that another system such as "Active Campaign" is always used. If there was an intermediate step here, without ads, landing pages and a blog, we would have dozens of new customers who would book directly and move away from Active Campaign to Hubspot. Unfortunately, most of our clients don't need landing pages etc. because that's all already in place or mapped via WordPress. But email marketing through Hubspot would be perfect, but just for this feature it is not possible to justify the price of 700€ more. The step with more form sequence automations "mini-workflows" in the forms was clearly the right one! Problem, however, it excludes 80-90% of all leads you generate these days! Very few still come through the website, it's lead forms from LinkedIn, Facebook, Google or events, cold calling where the leads come from and not the form which I can only embed on the website.... We urgently need a solution here to be able to keep our customers on Hubspot and not have to see how another tool has to be used. Kind regards Tim
