Highlights from the HubSpot Partner event in Sydney last week.
Got a sneak peak into some of the upcoming HubSpot feature releases.
Service Hub was a focus.
The Funnel is dead, it’s all about the Flywheel - so sayeth David Shepherd
It’s about making the customer the centre of everything.
Good to catch up with: Stacey Chalmers, Sarah McIntyre, Tony Eades, Justin Theng #gotheextra, Samantha Alford, Charles McKay, Daniel Bertschi, Varun Bhandarkar, Bob Ruffalo, Jethu Mahtani, Michael Redboard
Good to meet Adam Steinhardt and Zaahn Johnson (finally!) from the HubnSpoke podcast:

Interesting thought from the day: are you planning for a coming recession and if so, how will approach it. Jethu noted the importance of customer retention - which played in nicely with some of the Service Hub offering.
Speaking of events, it’s Grow with HubSpot Sydney tomorrow (as we record this). Shout out to Bertie who was looking after some last minute registrations. We emailed her just before 5pm and she replied almost instantly helping us out.
And even more about events - one of the reasons we’ve called out a bunch of people we caught up with is because it is an insight into the wonderful HubSpot community. If you’d like to be part of the HubSpot community, make sure to check out a local HubSpot User Group:

How to add Google Tag Manager in HubSpot
Now set under Settings > Marketing > Web
And then scroll down to the settings for Site header and Site footer
Ideally HubSpot should support this natively as a tickbox like they do for Google Analytics.
https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/google-tag-manager-guide
Note: always use the new Google Universal Analytics script - never use Classic Analytics
If you have multiple domains in your HubSpot portal make sure to select between domains when adding in the Google Tag Manager script:
Otherwise you may have the GTM script appear on all your domains (which may not be want you want - especially if you have an Enterprise account).
Why you should be using Google Tag Manager to manage all your marketing scripts

Common examples:
https://www.simoahava.com/ is the guru on GTM and GA - worth following if you are a technical person or just love geeking out on the GA and GTM stuff.
This is a great way to get a quick overview of what your leads are doing. Plus when you hover over the record you can call, email, create a task, note, email and log activity.
