Why Deal-to-Event Attribution Matters

Events like trade shows, webinars, and conferences are key touchpoints in your marketing strategy. But to prove their value, you need answers to questions like:
  • Are these events generating revenue?
  • Which deals can we attribute to specific events?
  • How can we track ROI without manual data entry?
Traditional methods make this tough, but with event•hapily, you can tie deals to events automatically, ensuring you have all the insights you need.
 

Step 1: Start with an Event Record

Everything begins with your event record in HubSpot. This record is the foundation for tracking registrations, attendees, and — most importantly — revenue attribution.
 
Here’s how to set it up:
 
  1. Go to event•hapily Events: Navigate to your event object in HubSpot.
  2. Create Your Event Record: Add key details like the event name, type, and dates.
  3. Capture Registrants: Use landing pages, QR codes, or manual entries to record who attended your event.
With this setup, you’ll have a centralized hub to manage all event-related data.
 

Step 2: Build Workflows for Seamless Attribution

Manually associating deals with events? No thanks. Instead, set up workflows to automate this process:
 
  1. Trigger Deal Attribution: Use a HubSpot workflow action to link deals to events based on registrant activity.
  2. Choose Your Attribution Logic: Decide whether deals should associate with the first eventmost recent event, or all events tied to the contact.
  3. Define a Time Window: Limit attribution to events within a specific timeframe (e.g., the last 365 days).
💡 Pro Tip: Customize your workflows to fit your strategy. For example, you can associate deals only at specific deal stages or when new contacts are added to the deal.
 

Step 3: Unlock Real-Time Reporting

With attribution on autopilot, you’ll gain access to real-time insights without lifting a finger. Here’s what you can track:
  • Attributed Deals: See how many deals are linked to each event.
  • Pipeline Influence: Monitor the total pipeline created by event attendees.
  • Closed Revenue: Measure the revenue generated by specific events to calculate ROI.
No spreadsheets, no manual reconciliation—just clean, actionable data.
 

Step 4: Supercharge Your ROI Analysis

Want to go the extra mile? Use HubSpot’s calculated fields and custom objects to track event expenses and generate ROI insights.
  • Track Event Costs: Add expenses to your event record for a clear view of profitability.
  • Calculate ROI: Subtract costs from revenue for instant event ROI metrics.
By automating these calculations, you can confidently evaluate the success of each event and make data-driven decisions for the future.
 

Automation That Empowers Your Team

With event•hapily, your sales team can focus on what they do best: closing deals.
