HubSpot AI is now woven into everyday work across Marketing Hub, Sales Hub and the Smart CRM. This playbook shows Sales and Marketing Managers how to get real outcomes without creating noise. It is written for current HubSpot users who want to ship campaigns faster, improve follow up, and measure impact with clarity.
You will find a simple rollout plan, manager checklists, a cross-team workflow, and guidance based on the latest product updates announced around and after INBOUND 2025.
HubSpot expanded Breeze AI across tools and introduced new agent capabilities. Highlights that matter to managers include
Breeze assistants in editors and CRM records for writing, summarising and suggestions
Content Remix inside Content Hub for rapid multichannel repurposing
A growing set of Breeze agents for content, prospecting and service that work with your CRM context
Lead scoring changes and broader predictive models to prioritise work
Big investment in governance and permissions so teams can adopt AI safely
The message from INBOUND 2025 was simple. Use AI to reduce busywork and to connect activity to outcomes. That means you need a shared plan across marketing and sales rather than two separate experiments.
Pick two or three outcomes you can measure inside HubSpot
Reduce time to first draft for emails and landing pages by half
Improve reply rate on first sales follow up by a small but meaningful amount
Increase campaign speed from brief to live by one working day
Capture better notes and next steps in the CRM after every meeting
Tie these targets to a single campaign so the impact is visible on one dashboard.
Set the shared goal
Agree one metric both teams influence together such as MQL to SQL conversion or first meeting booked rate.
Choose the first use cases
Pick one content workflow for marketing and one follow up workflow for sales. Keep everything else unchanged for now.
Create a small prompt library
Store prompts in Snippets or a team doc. Use real examples that people can copy and paste. See examples below.
Define review rules
Require human review for anything customer facing. Keep a short checklist for accuracy, tone, compliance and links.
Measure weekly
Add a dashboard for time saved, response rates and influenced pipeline. Review together every week.
Marketing
Draft a landing page intro in a confident and clear tone for audience X. Limit to 80 words and end with one call to action
Turn this blog into three social posts with a curiosity hook, a single insight and one link
Propose three subject lines and three preview texts for this email. Keep two short and one descriptive
Sales
Write a three line follow up that references the last conversion and asks for one next step
Summarise this call in one paragraph and list action items with owners
Personalise this sequence step using first name, company and the last page viewed
Store the best results as templates so the assistant learns from real usage.
| Stage | Tool | How AI helps | Owner |
|---|---|---|---|
| Attraction | Content Hub and Ads | Breeze drafts assets and Content Remix creates email and social variations | Marketing |
| Landing | CMS | Assistant refines headings, meta descriptions and CTAs | Marketing |
| Capture | Forms and CRM | Predictive scoring ranks new contacts for triage | RevOps |
| Handover | Lists and Workflows | Qualified leads move into sequences automatically | RevOps |
| Follow up | Sequences and Inbox | Assistant drafts first replies and personalises by context | Sales |
| Meeting | Meetings and Records | Breeze writes notes and next steps to the record | Sales |
| Review | Reports | Managers review outcomes and update prompts and playbooks | Both |
Keep ownership clear so no step is lost. If data or app connections are the blocker, see HubSpot Integrations. If scoring and lifecycle rules need attention, see RevOps Consulting.
Plan with data
Use Campaigns reporting and analytics to see which channels and topics move the needle. If you need deeper attribution or BigQuery and GA4 support, see Analytics Consulting.
Create with speed and control
Use Breeze for outlines and first drafts then apply your brand guide. Save approved snippets for tone, style and CTAs. Use Content Remix to create platform specific variations rather than copy and paste.
Publish and repurpose
Start with one strong asset. Remix into an email, a short landing page summary and three social posts. Schedule and tag everything to the same campaign.
Measure and learn
Review engagement, submissions and influenced pipeline. Update prompts each week based on what worked.
Work the right leads
Use predictive scoring and list filters to focus on contacts with recent intent. Ask RevOps to review the scoring model during the pilot period.
Write less and send better
Use the assistant for a first draft only. Keep emails short and specific and ask for one clear next step.
Capture clean CRM notes
Let the assistant summarise calls and meetings then add your own nuance and commitments. Clean notes make pipeline reviews faster and better.
Close the loop with marketing
Tag deals influenced by the pilot campaign. Share example emails that earned replies so marketing can adjust messaging.
Volume without value
AI can help you create a lot of content. Resist the urge to flood channels. Keep the focus on one clear message per campaign.
Inconsistent prompts and tone
Without shared prompts you will get inconsistent results. Store and update a small library that everyone uses.
Skipping review
Always check facts, pricing and links. Add a legal or compliance note where needed.
Messy properties
If the CRM has duplicate fields or unclear lifecycle stages the experience will suffer. Get a quick RevOps tidy up before you scale.
Week one
A live walk through of the pilot workflow above using a real campaign
A short prompt sharing session where three people show their best example
Week two
Enable one more use case such as call summaries or ad copy creation
Save improved prompts and templates based on week one results
Week three
Review metrics together and decide whether to scale the pilot
Document a short playbook with owners and quality checks
