Get Set Up
Connect your email, calendar, Outlook and the HubSpot mobile app so HubSpot records your work automatically. Work down the checklist in order.
First: sign in to HubSpot
These steps are hands-on. Open the real HubSpot portal in a new tab, sign in with your Olson Homes account, and keep it open while you work through the checklist below.
- Open
Connect your work email
Connecting your Olson Homes email lets you send messages to prospects directly from HubSpot and automatically logs every reply on the contact record. Without it, your conversations stay hidden in your inbox and the team cannot see where a prospect stands.
- Open
Install the HubSpot Outlook add-in
The add-in puts HubSpot inside Outlook. You can log an email to the CRM, see a prospect's history and book a meeting without leaving your inbox — which is where most of your day already happens.
- Open
Connect your Outlook calendar
A connected calendar keeps your real availability in HubSpot, lets prospects book time with you through a meeting link, and logs meetings on the contact record so the team can see what is scheduled.
- Open
Confirm your email signature
Every email you send from HubSpot represents Olson Homes. A consistent signature with your name, title, phone number and community information builds trust and gives prospects an easy way to reach you.
- Open
Review your personal profile and notifications
Your profile is how teammates and prospects identify you, and your notification settings decide how quickly you hear about a new contact. Getting both right means nothing falls through the cracks.
- Open
Install the HubSpot mobile app
Sales happens away from your desk. The HubSpot mobile app lets you respond to new contacts, log calls, check your tasks and update deals from your phone so nothing waits until you are back at the office.
