UserGems & HubSpot Sequences Configuration with Gem-E Messaging
While UserGems and HubSpot Sequences don't integrate directly, UserGems does directly integrate with HubSpot. The UserGems <> HubSpot integration enables:
- The sync of Contacts and Companies between UserGems and HubSpot
- UserGems to automatically add Contacts directly to the right Sequence to reduce the manual work for your reps and ensure timely followup
Steps
1. Create Gem-E fields in HubSpot
- Within HubSpot, navigate to Settings > Properties (under Data Management)
- Make sure Contact Properties is selected in the Select an Object dropdown
- Optionally, create a Group for these fields called Gem-E Fields to keep the fields grouped together and the layout clean

- On the Properties tab, click Create property

- Use the field types and labels from the table below to create all 14 Gem-E fields
- Note: it's important to create all Subject fields listed below, though you will notice that some are not referenced in the table in Step 3 below

2. Add a Campaign Workflow Action to Update CRM Fields
- Go to Campaigns in the UserGems app
- Select a Campaign to edit
- Add an Update CRM Fields action (after the Activate Gem-E action)
- Select the object you’re updating
- Add all Gem-E properties under the CRM field section (our screenshot shows a few as an example)
- For each field row, select New Value = "Dynamic"
- Map each CRM property to the dynamic Gem-E value by clicking the Label dropdown
- Make sure the toggle in the top right is set to "Action On" and save the Campaign

3. Create Templates for Sequences
- Within HubSpot, navigate to CRM > Message Templates > New Template

- Name the Template "Gem-E Email 1"
- Click Subject > Personalize > Search for "Gem-E Subject 1"
- Click into the body of the Template > Personalize > Search for "Gem-E Content 1"

4. Create Sequences
Next, create a new HubSpot Sequence using the custom properties created in Step 1. The properties will dynamically populate with Gem-E messaging when a contact enters the sequence. See this article about creating a Sequence in HubSpot.
Your sequence structure should look like one of the tables below.
- In HubSpot, navigate to Sales > Sequences > Create Sequence

- Add the Templates that were created in Step 2 to the Sequence. Search for "Gem-E Email 1" first.

- Check the Delay (number of business days) between Sequence steps. If the second email will send on day 6, then the Delay will be 5 business days.

Default sequence structure:
Co-pilot (high touch) sequence template:
Auto-pilot (low touch) sequence template:
5. Set Up Workflow
- In HubSpot, navigate to Automation > Workflows > Create Workflow

- Select Triggers > Data values > Record meets a set of filter conditions

- Select Contact > Contact Properties

- Search for "Gem-E Content 1" and make the criteria "is known"

- Click Next > Save & Continue
- Add an action
- Go to Communications > Enroll in a sequence

- Select the Sequence you created in Step 3, "Gem-E Sequence"
- Choose the Sender and Contact Owner Property. We suggest "Contact Owner" for both.

- Click Save.
6. Publish Workflow 🚀
After creating the properties, templates, sequence(s), and workflow, you're ready to publish the workflow!
Navigate to Review and Publish to activate the workflow.
