HubSpot — the system of record

HubSpot is where everything that matters lives. Every prospect, every conversation, every deal, every ticket. The call center should consider HubSpot the operating system of the engagement.

Pipeline structure

The pipeline stages the call center should use:

  1. Lead — sourced, not yet contacted
  2. Outreach — at least one touch sent
  3. Engaged — replied, opened multiple emails, accepted LI request
  4. Discovery Booked — discovery call scheduled
  5. Discovery Done — discovery call completed; qualified
  6. Demo Booked — demo scheduled
  7. Demo Done — demo completed
  8. Trial Active — Free or Pro trial in progress
  9. Closed Won — Pro — converted to paid Pro (monthly or annual)
  10. Closed Won — Team — converted to Team tier
  11. Closed Lost — not converted (reason code required)
  12. Disqualified — wrong fit (reason code required)

Required HubSpot fields per contact

  • First name, last name, email, phone
  • Title
  • Company name
  • Persona (Maya / Daniel / Sarah / James / Carmen / Other)
  • Geo (country, region, city)
  • Source (cold outbound / inbound / referral / paid social / event / other)
  • Lifecycle stage
  • Deal stage
  • Owner (agent name)
  • Last touch date
  • Next-action date

Required deal-level fields when closing

  • Tier (Pro / Team / Enterprise — escalated)
  • Annual contract value (USD)
  • Term (monthly / annual)
  • Discount applied (%)
  • Promo code used (if any)
  • Source of close (UTM-based)
  • Caller / agent who closed
  • Notes (anything notable for account management)

HubSpot data hygiene rules

  • Update lifecycle / deal stage within 24 hours of any state change
  • Log every touch (email sent, call made, LinkedIn message) using HubSpot's native logging
  • Never delete a contact — disqualify instead with reason code
  • Never duplicate a contact — if you find a duplicate, merge
  • Tag every contact with persona within 48 hours of first touch
  • Mark "Do not contact" immediately on any unsubscribe / opt-out request

Stripe — payment processing

Stripe handles: - One-time charges (annual prepay) - Subscription billing (monthly Pro / monthly Team / annual Team) - Refunds (within 14-day standard window — call center authority) - Payment links (generated for closing calls)

  1. In HubSpot, navigate to the deal
  2. Use the "Generate Payment Link" action (HubSpot-Stripe integration)
  3. Select tier (Pro / Team), term (monthly / annual), seat count (Team only), and promo code (if any)
  4. Send the link to the customer
  5. When payment processes, HubSpot deal auto-moves to "Closed Won"

Refunds — call center authority

  • 14-day full refund: ✅ self-service in Stripe
  • Beyond 14 days: ⚠️ escalate to Amir
  • Pro-rated refund for technical defect: ✅ if defect is documented

What the call center CANNOT do in Stripe

  • Override pricing below standing tier prices (use HubSpot promo codes instead)
  • Issue credit beyond 1 month of subscription value without escalation
  • Modify the Stripe product catalog
  • Access banking / connected-account settings

App Store Connect — visibility

Read-only access for the call-center lead. Useful for: - Monitoring install counts by region (helpful for EU campaign measurement) - Reviewing App Store ratings and written reviews - Identifying app crashes or technical issues at scale (correlate with HubSpot tickets)

The call center does NOT publish App Store responses — that stays with Airwai. The call center can read but not respond.

Slack — real-time collaboration

The call center will be added to the following Airwai Slack channels: - #airwai-product — product team; for technical / bug escalations - #airwai-sales — sales team; for Rig opportunities and high-value deals - #customer-feedback — real-time customer-quote sharing - #ergis-call-center — dedicated channel for the call center + Amir

Slack norms: - Use threads for follow-ups (keep channels clean) - @mentions for action required; no @mention = informational - Tag tickets / HubSpot deals with their links when discussing them - Late-night messages get a response next business day; don't expect immediate

Shared Google Drive — marketing collateral

Read-only access to the Airwai marketing collateral library: - Demo videos (versioned with each app release) - Case studies (SBD / Esri; Wright-Patterson — once approved) - Brand assets (logos, color palette, font files) - One-pagers (Pro tier, Team tier, EU Accessibility Act, etc.) - Pre-approved sales decks

The call center can use these directly in customer-facing communication. Modifications require Airwai sign-off (brand compliance).

Reporting tools

For weekly + monthly reporting: - HubSpot Reports (built-in dashboards) - Google Sheets (for ad-hoc analysis) - Notion or Confluence (for narrative reporting summaries; if the call center prefers)

Airwai will publish a template for the weekly report — see reporting-cadence.md.

Data ownership and exit

  • All customer data created during the engagement is Airwai's property
  • The call center has access during the engagement; on termination, access is revoked
  • Customer relationships built during the engagement are Airwai-owned
  • Disengagement protocol: 30-day notice, clean handoff of pipeline + customer records, no poaching of customers post-engagement
