Hi everyone! 👋 I’m a 2nd-year college student currently learning about Inbound Sales through HubSpot Academy.

I used to think sales was all about convincing people to buy, but now I see it’s really about helping, listening, and building trust. My key takeaway is: “Selling is about helping, not pushing.”

It’s such a good reminder that effective sales and communication, in general, start with understanding people. 💬

Hi Everyone,

My name is John Berres, Business Development Manager, with Sparc Fire Protection Engineering. I have worked with HubSpot for the past few years but still have much to learn. I am currently working with the Prospecting Agent and love this feature. Are there any other features that I should be checking out? Thanks

Hello everyone! My name is Trisha Mae, and I’m currently a student. I’m really interested in learning more about marketing, sales, and business analytics as part of this study group. While I don’t work in a specific industry yet, I’m exploring fields like marketing and sales to see where I can apply my skills. One tactic I think is key to closing more deals is really understanding your customer’s needs and tailoring your approach to solve their problems — listening carefully makes a big difference. I’m hoping to get out of this group practical skills, ideas from others, and tips on real-world strategies that I can apply in the future. I’m looking forward to learning and collaborating with all of you!
