What if I told you that being an expert in the HubSpot platform is only a fraction of what you need to increase sales using the HubSpot CRM? You can spend your nights and weekends getting certified in every feature and button within the platform, but you still may not be fully confident that your HubSpot CRM is set up right for your business.

The tension between your sales team and your marketing team is one of the most written about or discussed slow-burning feuds on earth.

For some businesses, it is right up there with:
