For internal connections, Slack is our go-to. 

For sales prospecting and connecting, LinkedIn is my go-to online tool. I also reply on video conferencing services like Google Meet and Zoom.

I am old school, my favorite method of contact is face to face- I can observe body language, etc. Also a personal visit gives better access to a prospect or clients facility, where I can learn more about that person’s buisness& process.

After that, my second favorite method of communication is phone, followed by email.

Hello!  I love to use LinkedIn.  It's helpful to see what is going on with their job or organization so I can connect with them in a meaningful way.

I would say phone calls are still my favorite way to communicate with contacts. The HubSpot call integration makes it easy to dial and the call recording and transcrition feature is very helpful for coaching and review.

Although Hubspot's tools are working wonders for my growth, the best tool for me is still voice calls (video conference also). A lot of times you can feel and comprehend a persons passion or desire when they speak.
