HubSpot Marketing Contacts Setup & Optimization

Service Scope

HubSpot Marketing Contacts Setup & Optimization is a fixed-scope HubSpot Email Marketing service for one business, one HubSpot Marketing Hub account, and up to 10,000 existing contacts.

The service covers the approved quantities and configuration described below in one HubSpot account. Work outside those quantities is quoted separately.

The objective is to deliver a practical, documented configuration that the client can understand, approve, and continue using after handoff.

Review Marketing Contact Usage

We review current marketing-contact status, contact sources, default status behavior, the active contact tier, and the business rules for deciding which records should be marketable through HubSpot.

• Current marketing versus non-marketing contacts
• Contact source and creation method
• Contact-tier usage
• Default status behavior for supported tools
• Contacts requiring client review

Configure a Practical Marketing Contact Structure

We create up to five segments for marketing-contact management, document recommended status rules, and complete one client-approved bulk status action where HubSpot permits it.

• Up to 5 marketing-contact management segments
• Source-based status review
• Lifecycle or engagement criteria review
• One approved bulk status action
• Marketing-contact usage recommendations

Testing and Validation

We verify the visible status results and document any scheduled non-marketing changes, plan limits, or contacts that remain billable until HubSpot's next applicable update date.

• Approved quantities and settings
• Names, properties, fields, and mapping logic
• Visible HubSpot status and permissions
• Representative test result
• Exceptions requiring client action

Implementation Summary

At handoff, the client receives a concise implementation summary covering the completed work, the configuration visible in HubSpot, and any unresolved platform or third-party dependency.

• Marketing-contact usage review for up to 10,000 contacts
• Current contact-tier review
• Up to 5 management segments
• Source and status-rule recommendations
• 1 client-approved bulk status action
• Post-action validation
• Implementation summary

Client Requirements

Before work begins, the client must provide the following access, information, content, and approvals:

• HubSpot Super Admin access or the permissions required for the approved work
• An active HubSpot plan that supports the requested configuration
• Final business information, brand assets, content, data, and implementation instructions required for the service
• Permission-based contact data and accurate subscription or marketing-status instructions when contacts are involved
• Timely review and written approval of proposed settings and test results
• A HubSpot Marketing Hub plan with marketing contacts
• Written criteria for which contacts should be used for marketing
• Approval before changing any marketing-contact status

Delivery and Revisions

Standard delivery is 5–7 business days after all required access, content, data, and approvals are received. Platform processing, DNS propagation, app review, or other third-party delays may extend completion.

One consolidated correction round is included when submitted within seven days of delivery and remains within the approved scope. New content, replacement data, additional assets, or a materially different configuration is treated as separate work.

• HubSpot billing disputes or subscription negotiation

• HubSpot subscription, contact-tier, add-on, app, or third-party software fees
