Zerys Content Marketplace
• Awarded “App of the Year” by HubSpot.
• Connects businesses with quality, custom content, written by experienced writers with expert knowledge in your industry.
• How it works: http://www.zerys.com/how-it-works/
• Identify the content type you’re looking for. Zerys helps you identify and select the best topics/titles to write about.
• Post your opportunity to the writer job board using SmartPost. SmartPost is a reverse bid technology that guarantees you get the highest-rated writer, at the lowest possible price. If you’ve used the service before, you can share the opportunity with a writer on your Favorites List.
• Writers submit content for your review, which you can then approve, request revisions or reject.

Twitter: #CleHUG
Zerys Content Marketplace
• What’s noteworthy:
• You only pay if you’re 100% satisfied.
• After you’ve used the marketplace, you can select favorite writers to use in the future.
• Suggested improvements:
• The most frequent feedback received from the marketplace is the initial difficulty in finding a high-quality writer during first use.
• With more than 20,000 writers available, it’s recommended that users start with 10-20 writers initially, and take time to build relationships to determine the best fit for your company, or your “go-to” writer.

Eventbrite Integration
• App allows you to connect your Eventbrite Account with your HubSpot Account.
• You'll be able bring your event attendees into HubSpot and then use HubSpot's CRM tools in order to nurture them.
• How it works:
• Connect your Eventbrite account to connect event attendee information with contacts in HubSpot marketing database.
• Analyze event success by attendees and revenue.
• Nurture contacts for future events.

Eventbrite Integration

Eventbrite Integration

Eventbrite Integration
• What’s noteworthy:
• Ability to analyze events and load contacts into HubSpot portal.
• Nurture leads loaded from Eventbrite to improve the success of future events.
• Suggested improvements:
• Integration doesn’t enable you to track attendees that purchase multiple tickets if they are free. You can see the revenue associated with tickets that include a price value.

Highrise CRM
• Automatically copies leads, lead intelligence, reconversion events and website visits to Highrise for use by sales team.
• Also copies won deals from Highrise into HubSpot, enabling closed-looped analysis in sources.
• How it works:
• Connect HubSpot portal with Highrise account.
• Select settings for “Post to Highrise when leads reconvert via the website,” and “Post to Highrise when leads visit the website.”

Highrise CRM

Highrise CRM
• What’s noteworthy:
• Enables closed-loop marketing analytics, and is a great solution for small businesses that do not use Salesforce.
• Suggested improvements:
• Reviews of the app suggest adding automatic tagging and lead nurturing/email integration. The ability to nurture leads through HubSpot’s email tool and copy that information into Highrise would be a great advantage.

Like to Download
• App enables marketers to gate content behind “Likes” on your site or Facebook Fan Page.
• How it works:
• Create content available for download — i.e. ebook or white paper.
• Select the page URL or Facebook Fan Page you’d like to gate behind a “Like” button.
• Select the “Thank you” page URL.
• Input the width of the button you’d like, as well as the color scheme.

Like to Download
• Create and select content to gate behind button.
• Create “Like” button with page URL.
• Copy and paste embed code on site.
Twitter: #CleHUG
Like to Download
• What’s noteworthy:
• Placing content behind a like button helps boost the number of people who like your website of Facebook Page. People may be more likely to “Like” a page than they would be to offer personal information.
• Helps drive social media traffic.
• Suggested improvements:
• Inflated social media likes from gated content might not be an accurate reflection of brand or fan loyalty.
• From a marketing to sales perspective, gating content behind a “Like” button does not provide you with lead information needed for nurturing that individual through the sales process the way completing a form would.
