FAQ CRM IMPLEMENTATIONS

FAQ HubSpot CRM introduction in Swiss SMEs

1. What is CRM? And what are its advantages?

A CRM (customer relationship management) system is a system in which a company centrally collects and organizes all information and contacts relating to (potential) customers (e.g., inquiries, offers, purchases, and communication). The advantage: you maintain an overview, can provide more targeted and personalized customer service, and thus increase efficiency, sales opportunities, and customer satisfaction.

2. How long does HubSpot CRM implementation take?

Depending on which CRM product you choose, it takes between 4-14 weeks. The more extensive the project, the longer we need for implementation. We can implement CRM Quickstart within a month.

3. What customer data should SMEs definitely maintain in their CRM?

This depends on your needs. However, we are happy to advise you when it comes to defining the mandatory fields at the contact or company level.

4. How do I handle duplicates in HubSpot?

HubSpot offers data cleansing tools that help you keep your data clean. Depending on your license, you can automate data cleansing so you don't have to do anything.

5. What are good deal stages for B2B SMEs?

Every company has its own sales process, which we will reflect in the sales pipeline.

The most commonly used stages are:

  • Appointment scheduled

  • Qualified to buy

  • Offer sent,

  • Decision-maker has agreed

  • Contract sent

  • Closed & won

  • Closed & lost

6. What KPIs does management need for pipeline and forecasting?

Important KPIs for the CEO or management are:

  • Deal win rate

  • Deal loss rate

  • Number of deals per employee

  • Orders won per week or month

  • Average deal value

  • Weighted pipeline value

  • Number of new leads per week/month

  • Existing customer growth

  • Sales cycle duration

7. How can I ensure that my sales team is actually using HubSpot?

The right setup is essential to ensure that the sales team will actually use HubSpot. It is also important that the CRM is streamlined so as not to overwhelm the team. Ultimately, management must be committed to using the tool.

8. DSG Switzerland: What needs to be considered with CRM?

HubSpot is GDPR compliant. This means that the tool is perfectly designed to comply with GDPR guidelines in Switzerland.

9. Where is our HubSpot data hosted?

All customer data in HubSpot is hosted on a server in Germany. 

10. Which HubSpot license do I need?

Together, we will quickly identify your most important CRM requirements. I can then provide you with the perfect advice regarding licensing.

11. What is not included?

We do not define your sales processes. You must define these yourself in advance so that all employees know how to use the tool.

Existing data cleansing: We do not perform data cleansing. This is your responsibility. We then import the cleansed data into the CRM.

12. How does support work after go-live?

We are also there for you after go-live. Expenses will be billed after the project at an hourly rate of CHF 150.
