This automation transfers all your Salesforce contacts to HubSpot, simplifying CRM management and ensuring data synchronization.
Sync Salesforce Contacts to HubSpot
Syncing contacts from Salesforce to HubSpot is a critical task for businesses aiming to maintain consistent data across their Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and marketing platforms. This process can be performed manually, through HubSpot's native integration features, or by leveraging automation tools like Bardeen. Each method has its unique steps and considerations.

To manually sync Salesforce contacts to HubSpot, you first need to ensure that the HubSpot-Salesforce integration is properly set up. This involves installing the HubSpot-Salesforce integration package in your Salesforce account and configuring the necessary permissions. Once the integration is in place, contacts can be synced in two primary ways: through direct import from Salesforce to HubSpot or by setting up an automatic sync that triggers when specific conditions are met.
For direct import, navigate to your HubSpot account, access the Contacts section, and select the option to import contacts from Salesforce. This method is straightforward but requires manual initiation each time you want to update your contact list in HubSpot.
For automatic syncing, you can create inclusion lists in HubSpot that define which contacts should be synced based on specific criteria. This method ensures that only relevant contacts are synced and that the data remains consistent across both platforms. Additionally, you can set up sync rules to manage how data conflicts between the two systems are resolved, ensuring data integrity.
Understanding HubSpot Salesforce Integration
The HubSpot-Salesforce integration allows for a seamless flow of data between the two platforms, enabling businesses to leverage the strengths of both systems effectively. This integration not only syncs contacts but also supports syncing activities, tasks, and even campaign data, providing a comprehensive view of your sales and marketing efforts.
When setting up the integration, it's crucial to understand the data architecture differences between HubSpot and Salesforce. Salesforce uses Leads and Contacts to represent people, while HubSpot uses a single Contact object. This difference requires careful mapping during the integration setup to ensure data consistency. Additionally, the integration allows for the syncing of custom objects, giving businesses flexibility in how they manage their data.
Another important aspect of the integration is the ability to sync campaign data. While HubSpot campaigns and Salesforce campaigns do not directly correspond to each other, the integration facilitates the syncing of campaign-related data, such as campaign IDs, to HubSpot contacts. This enables businesses to track the effectiveness of their marketing campaigns across both platforms.
