• Bring a HubSpot expert on staff

The most expensive option is to hire a full-time HubSpot expert. You'll need to hire someone with experience with HubSpot, not just general marketing or sales experience. This person needs to be able to work independently and take the initiative when needed.

• Outsource a HubSpot expert

Hiring a HubSpot expert agency is one of the best ways to ensure that your project will be successful. There are a few things to look for when choosing an agency:

Reputation: Look for outsourcing partners with a good industry reputation, and ensure they have experience working with HubSpot.

Experience working with HubSpot: Find out how much experience the team has developing and implementing campaigns on HubSpot so you can see if it matches your needs or goals.

Industry knowledge: Don't just hire someone who knows how to use Hubspot's platform—find someone who understands your industry too! This makes it easier for them to understand what success looks like when they're building out your campaign strategy, which ultimately leads to better results down the line (and fewer headaches). Additionally, having someone on hand who knows how businesses operate helps ensure that there won't be any communication issues between you and whoever does work on your behalf (especially helpful when you don't speak English as a first language).

• Ask your friends

The best way to find a HubSpot expert is to ask people who have hired them before. Ask your friends, family, and colleagues who have previously used HubSpot to see if they can recommend someone. You may be surprised by how many people know of an expert in the field! If you feel you have few connections or don’t know anyone who works with HubSpot, then start asking on Twitter and LinkedIn groups. You might make a new connection who can refer you to someone great. You should also consider asking for references from previous clients or referrals from people that are not using HubSpot but know about it (for example, people in your industry).

• Find a HubSpot Community member.

Once you've determined what kind of expert you need, it's time to find one. Finding experts can be difficult, but HubSpot Community members are especially good at answering questions and providing advice—and they're generally more than happy to help! You can use HubSpot Community to search for experts by keyword or expertise.

Alternatively, if there is an expert that has impressed you in some way (such as through blog posts), then reach out directly via email or social media so they may recommend another person who could assist further down your road map with hiring someone else's services. Paying for help is a worthwhile investment that can save you time, money, and headaches in the long run.

Conclusion

Hiring someone who knows their stuff is a worthwhile investment—not just in terms of time and money, but also stress. If you’re looking for Hubspot experts who know HubSpot inside and out, Team INSIDEA would love to hear from you!
