CRM systems aren't sexy. But untangling contact duplicates and figuring out which "Acme Corp" is real? That hit my breaking point. That's why we built Needle + HubSpot integration.
The circle of CRM hell
- "Wait, do we already have them in the system?"
- "Which contact record is current?"
- "Is this the same company as that other one?"
- "Who entered this data?!" (Narrator: it was you, six months ago)
Tedious clicking: Companies tab → Search → Create new → Contacts tab → Create new → Back to associate → Deal pipeline... By the time you're done, your prospect signed with your competitor.
Talk to your CRM like a human
Instead of navigating HubSpot's labyrinth, just talk:
- "Create a company called GlobalTech"
- "Add phone number 555-123-4567 to GlobalTech"
- "Create a contact Jan Heimes and associate with GlobalTech"
No tab-switching hell. No forgetting where fields are hidden. Just message it like a colleague.
Death to duplicates
The duplicate problem drove me nuts. Nothing screams "we don't have our shit together" like reaching out twice.
- Search for companies with "LLC" in the name → Spot duplicates
- Remove redundant entry with single command
Weirdly satisfying, like finally cleaning that one drawer.
The real cost of messy data
Messy CRM data leaves money on the table. Miss follow-ups. Deals fall through cracks. Sales forecasts become fiction. Marketing targets wrong people—or same people multiple times. Cleaning your CRM isn't just satisfying, it's profitable.
What else can this do?
- Bulk company creation (spreadsheet imports that actually work)
- Multi-stage pipeline management (without clicking nightmare)
- Cross-company contact management
- Actually usable follow-up systems
Try it yourself
- Connect HubSpot through our connector panel
- Create a collection for your data
