Sending a Newsletter in HubSpot
1. Update the database
-
-
Go to marketing and look up when we last sent an email (marketing→ content → emails)
-
Go to sales → contacts → add filter → create date “is after” last email that we sent *apply filter*
-
Add another filter: contact owner = samara, alyssa, dave, jen, tim, allie shanahan, angel, levi, lauren, joe, caroliiiine *apply filter*

Save

Go through list and deselect people who work at competitors or treat samara’s yard for mosquitoes

Remove “Bill Frist contacts”

-
Select all → more → add to static list → add to master database from previous master database (go to next page and do the same)
-
Go to the marketing tab → contacts → list → rename it with today’s date
-
Go back to list
-
Contacts → landing pages → FINAL: The Pursuit of Innovation WP DL → Date range: custom time period from last date send → quick view → use in list → Pursuit of innovation downloads → request export
