HubSpot Sales Pipeline Design

Stages with entry criteria, required fields on stage change and a view of deals that have stalled.

The problem this solves

HubSpot is running, but every rep moves deals their own way. One marks negotiation after the first call, another after a discount talk. Quotes nobody is waiting on anymore sit in “Quote sent”, so pipeline value tells the manager nothing.

How I work

I start by reviewing your current pipeline and the deals sitting in it. Then the sales manager and I set an entry criterion for each stage, an event that either happened or didn’t. I add a second pipeline only when the process differs, for example for contract renewals.

In HubSpot, I set up required fields on stage change, workflows that record stage dates and create tasks, and a view of deals with no activity. I move existing deals to the new stages using a list you approve before the switch, so reports from past periods stay comparable. I train reps and the manager on their own deals, in 1.5-2 hour sessions.

What you get

  • Stage definitions with entry criteria
  • Required fields between stages
  • Workflows for stage dates and follow-up tasks
  • A stalled-deals view for the manager
  • Existing deals moved per the approved list
  • Training for reps and the manager on their own deals

What people ask before a quote

One pipeline or several?

As many as you have distinct sales processes. Renewals or partner sales can get their own pipeline, while a split by product or region usually works as a filter.

Will we lose deal history when the stages change?

No. Before the change, I map each old stage to a new one, and you approve that list. Amounts, dates and activities stay on the deals.

How long does a pipeline rebuild take?

It depends on how many pipelines, open deals and workflows need to move to the new stages. I’ll give you a timeline after reviewing your portal.

Let’s check whether this service fits your situation

After you submit the form, you pick a time in my calendar. I prepare the scope and a quote after the call.
