Sales Engagement Logging in HubSpot

As businesses continue embracing WhatsApp as a powerful communication tool, efficient tracking, and reporting become paramount. This is where Engagement Logging in HubSpot comes into play. In this article, we’ll focus on how Rasayel Engagement Logging integrates with HubSpot, bringing you a robust, data-driven communication strategy.

What is Engagement Logging?

Every time an agent reaches out to a customer (outbound message), the activity is registered as an engagement log in HubSpot. The registration happens automatically and in real-time. Each log shows the name of the agent who sent the message. For more information, you can extend the log to see the time and message content.

This feature is only available within the HubSpot WhatsApp integration by Rasayel.

Why use Rasayel Engagement Logging in HubSpot?

The integration of Rasayel Engagement Logging in HubSpot is a game-changer for businesses that strive for efficient and data-driven customer communication strategies. This potent combination brings a suite of benefits that enhance your team’s performance and provide critical insights into customer behavior.

Here’s an in-depth look at why you should leverage Rasayel Engagement Logging in HubSpot:

Enhanced performance metrics

You can accurately track and assess your team’s performance. With each engagement clearly attributed to a specific agent, you can evaluate the volume of outbound communication generated by individual team members. You can identify the top performers, pinpoint agents who might need extra support, and develop targeted training programs to elevate team productivity.

Improved customer insights

With Engagement Logging, you gain valuable insights into when and how often your customers are being contacted. These insights can inform your communication strategies, ensuring your customers are neither over-communicated nor under-communicated. They can also help you identify high-engagement periods, allowing you to allocate resources during these times better.

Customized reporting

With customizable reports, you can focus on the specific metrics that matter most to your business. Whether it’s the number of outbound messages per agent, the most frequently used message templates, or the number of conversations initiated, you can easily create a report to track it.

Streamlined processes

The automation of engagement logging eliminates the need for manual record-keeping, freeing up your agents to focus on what they do best - engaging with customers. By reducing administrative tasks, you increase the efficiency of your team and decrease the potential for human error in logging engagements.

Increased efficiency

Over time, analyzing your engagement logs can reveal patterns and trends in your communication strategy. For example, if certain message templates are used more frequently than others, this could indicate that these templates are particularly effective. This insight allows you to refine your messaging strategy, ultimately increasing its overall efficiency.

Actionable data

Every logged engagement provides a data point that can be used to understand your operations better. Over time, this wealth of data can guide decision-making processes, strategic planning, and operational improvements. With Rasayel and HubSpot, every message sent becomes an opportunity to learn and improve.

Improved accountability

With the transparency of engagement logging, every message is accounted for. This level of accountability ensures that no customer message slips through the cracks. Furthermore, it enables the identification of any bottlenecks or issues in the communication process, allowing for swift resolution.

How to Use Engagement Logging in Your Sales Strategy

Rasayel adds valuable context to HubSpot through Engagement Logging, allowing you to gain deeper insights into your communication strategies. Here are some use-case examples:

Template analysis

When you send a message template from Rasayel, the engagement is logged in HubSpot, providing visibility into which templates were used, how frequently, and their overall impact. Break down the filter by “Rasayel Template Name” to see what WhatsApp Message Templates are sent to your customers.

Message type tracking

Use the “Rasayel Message type” breakdown to see the different types of messages sent, such as text, images, templates, etc.

Segmented reports

Break down the report by “Rasayel Channel Name,” email, template name, and other criteria to gain specific insights into different aspects of communication.

Agent performance

Engagements have an owner, and by breaking down the counts by “Activity assigned to,” you can analyze individual agent performance and identify the best-performing team members.

Creating Engagement Logging reports

To begin creating reports with Engagement Logging, follow these steps:

  1. Click on “Reports” in HubSpot to access the reporting section.
  2. Select “Create report” and choose “Custom Report Builder.”
  3. Choose “Activities” as the basis for your report, as this represents the Engagement Logging automated by Rasayel.
  4. On the next page, you’ll find all the available properties to select for your report.
    1. To track the number of activities per month, place “Count of activities” on the Y-axis and “Activity date” on the X-axis.
    2. To specify the time period, apply a filter to the “Activity date” and choose “is after.” Add the date corresponding to one month earlier (or any desired period) to view relevant data.
    3. For a more detailed breakdown, consider filtering the report by week or day to analyze the daily engagement metrics.

Impact of Logging Engagement in HubSpot

The most significant advantage of Rasayel Engagement Logging is its impact on report generation. HubSpot offers a robust reporting feature that enables you to create custom dashboards and extract valuable insights from your data.
