Import Marketing Tasks

[janinel]

Hi lovely HubSpot team...

My ask: 

I would like to be able to create a marketing task (with campaign, assignee, draft due date, task details, attach a video/image) > Export this to google docs/sheets with a "pending" status > Client approves content > Import the updated marketing taskimport from google doc/sheets with "approved" status and updated properties > convert the task into a social post draft.

My use case:

Marketing tasks are created to organize client activity > client approves content in a google doc > the content is added to HubSpot as a social post (or added to social as a newsletter/article). 

Extra functionality needed:

• Convert a marketing task to a social post, email newsletter, or social article or social newsletter.
• Task status? (customizable list is ideal)
• Custom color options for marketing campaigns?
• More task types?  (a customizable list would be ideal)
• A calendar view (for marketing and sales tasks) that allows us to filter by any property.
