When a new inquiry comes in through HoneyBook, mirror the lead into HubSpot CRM with light AI enrichment so the sales pipeline lives in one place.
Trigger: a HoneyBook webhook on the new-inquiry event. The payload includes the client name, email, phone, project type, free-text message, event date, and budget estimate.
For each inquiry, the agent should:
1. Parse the inquiry and pull out client name, email, phone, project type, message, event date, and budget.
2. Decide whether to enrich. If the email domain is a personal mailbox (gmail.com, yahoo.com, hotmail.com, outlook.com, icloud.com, aol.com, proton.me), skip the web research and use only what HoneyBook sent. This is a token and time saver.
3. For business email domains, do a quick web search on the company domain (and client name if helpful) to learn what the company does and a rough size, like employee band or revenue range. Keep this to one or two sentences of facts. Do not write a research report.
4. Look up HubSpot first with Get Contact by email. If a contact already exists for that email, do not create a duplicate. Use the existing contact id.
5. Otherwise call HubSpot Create Contact with first name, last name, email, and phone. In a notes or description field, write a short skimmable summary: project type, event date, budget, a one-line excerpt of the inquiry message, and the enrichment (company description plus size) if we did one.
6. Call HubSpot Create Deal with deal name set to the project type (fall back to "Project type, Client name" if the project type is generic), amount set to the budget estimate, deal stage set to your inquiry stage in the default sales pipeline, and associate it to the contact found or created in the previous step.
Integrations: HoneyBook (webhook trigger on new inquiry) and HubSpot (Get Contact, Create Contact, Create Deal).
Tone for the HubSpot notes: short and skimmable. A salesperson should be able to open the contact and walk into the first reply with enough context to sound prepared.
What it does

- Creates a matching HubSpot contact with name, email, phone, and a clean summary of the project, event date, and budget.
- Opens a new deal at your inquiry stage with the budget and project type already filled in and associated to the contact.
- For business email addresses, adds a short note on what the company does and a rough size, so your reps walk in informed.
