As a team of certified HubSpot and Salesforce experts with RevOps, Marketing Operations, and Sales Operations experience, RevBlack has been dedicated to helping organizations implement and optimize their HubSpot and Salesforce. After helping many companies with the Salesforce-HubSpot integration, we started to notice some simple but recurring challenges with the out-of-the-box HubSpot and Salesforce integration.
Simple but widespread pain points
❌ Limited visibility: From Salesforce, there was no way to know which records were syncing between the platforms and when they last synced.
❌ Tedious navigation: No easy way to view a record in Salesforce and quickly access the corresponding record in HubSpot.
❌ Time-consuming: Sales and Marketing teams were wasting valuable time trying to toggle between the two tools.
How we did it
Although our team at RevBlack is well-versed in HubSpot and Salesforce integration and administration, we are not developers.
To create an app that could address the integration issues, we had the crazy idea to use ChatGPT and believe it or not, it helped us the entire way through. It taught us the Salesforce app development process and actually wrote and tested most of the app's code (Apex, LWC, Javascript, HTML, CSS). ChatGPT also helped create almost all the documentation, instructions, and marketing materials for our app, including this very blog post.
Key benefits and features
