4. What makes the new Sales Professional different?
Workflows
Your sales pipeline will always be accurate and up-to-date when you use workflows for deal and task automation. It’s important to note
that Sales Professional users don’t get access to bulk email and can’t use workflows for lead nurturing or drip campaigns.
Reporting
HubSpot Sales Professional users get access to ad hoc reporting for their standard dashboards
Predictive Lead Scoring
HubSpot Sales Professional users get access to predictive lead scoring. It’s important to note that this predictive lead scoring is slightly
different from the PLS on the marketing side. That’s because we’ve rebuilt it with a proprietary algorithm that is more reliable for small
businesses with less data.
Smart Notifications
Smart notifications help you prioritize your outreach by surfacing the hottest engaged leads (rather than just the most recent activities).
Products
Products is a new object in HubSpot CRM that will be available to all HubSpot Sales Pro users. Products allows reps to associate a deal
with what they are actually selling so that teams and managers can report on product-specific data.
