What Are the Main Properties of Hubspot?

When we talk about HubSpot properties, we refer to the key information stored about customers on the platform. Some properties are automatically filled in by HubSpot, while others need to be completed by the company. There are default properties (some of which are not editable) and custom properties that you can create yourself.

In this article, we'll guide you on how to access these properties and provide a detailed overview of each HubSpot property.

How To View Hubspot Properties

1. Go to your account in the tool and select the Settings icon on the main navigation bar.

2. Once inside, look at the left sidebar menu and click on Properties.

3. In the dropdown menu, select Filter by, then click on Contact Properties.

Also, keep in mind that your chosen subscription on the platform may limit you to a maximum number of custom properties. If so, an error message will appear, notifying you that you've reached your limit. However, we recommend analyzing whether the default properties offered by HubSpot can meet your business's information and data needs before creating a custom property.

We hope this article has helped you gain a deeper understanding of all the information and data that the HubSpot platform can collect from all your contacts. This is extremely useful in understanding the status of each contact and their needs. Not all CRMs provide organizations with such extensive data capabilities for each contact, making HubSpot an excellent choice for your sales team to work effectively.

From the outset, you'll find that creating and accessing properties is not difficult, as the platform is very intuitive and user-friendly. Moreover, the best thing about HubSpot properties is that you can tailor them to your business needs, removing those that are not relevant and adding the ones you truly need to enhance your company. In conclusion, with HubSpot properties, the days of not knowing important details about your contacts that can help guide them through the sales funnel and prevent loss are over.
