📢 New blog live + Video | A timely reminder from our April webinar: What's New in HubSpot

HubSpot released 100+ updates this spring and we ran a session on 28th April to cut through the noise and focus on what actually matters for growing B2B teams.

Three takeaways worth holding onto:

🔍 Discovery is shifting. AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) is how your brand gets found when buyers ask AI tools instead of search engines. It is not replacing SEO. It is expanding where visibility needs to happen.

🤖 Pipeline creation still depends on relevance. Prospecting Agent helps sales teams move from broad lists to context-aware outreach, using CRM data, intent signals, and account research together.

⚙️ Setup quality determines output quality. Whether it is AEO prompts or prospecting plays, the more clearly you define your audience, positioning, and signals, the better the results. Garbage in, garbage out still applies.

The blog covers both tools in full, with practical steps on where to start and is definitely worth a read if you are thinking about how your team uses AI this year!

Getting HubSpot right from the start makes a huge difference.

I’ve seen too many teams invest in CRM… only for it to end up half-used, messy, or completely ignored. It’s rarely a tech problem—it’s usually clarity, process, and adoption.

We’ve put together a practical guide on HubSpot setup for UK B2B companies—what a realistic timeline looks like, the roles you actually need, and how to make onboarding stick.

If you’re thinking about implementing HubSpot (or fixing a messy setup), this will save you time and a lot of avoidable mistakes.

Learn how UK B2B companies can deploy HubSpot faster with expert setup services. AutomateNow shares timelines, roles & onboarding steps for mid-market CRM

We've spent the last couple of weeks talking about why AI governance matters — and sharing some real examples of what happens when it doesn't exist.

So this week, one honest question:

Do you know what AI tools are running in your organisation right now — who approved them, what data they use, and what happens if something goes wrong?

If the answer is "not really", you're not alone. And that's exactly where our AI Governance Toolkit starts.

Step 1 is an AI Use Case Inventory. A simple, structured template that helps you map every AI tool in your business — the ones IT approved, the ones the marketing team quietly started using, and the ones nobody is quite sure about.

It takes less time than you think. And it's the foundation everything else is built on.

Five steps. Five weeks. Five templates straight to your inbox — one at a time, so you can actually use each one before the next arrives.
The first one is waiting for you. 👇

A practical five-step AI governance toolkit for marketing, CRM and RevOps teams, with recorded sessions, templates and a 90-day action plan.

⚡A lot of AI tools promise speed..

WHAT BUSINESS ACTUALLY NEED IS RELEVENCE.

That was the key theme running through our latest session on HubSpot's spring updates, and it shaped everything we discussed:
🔍 Better visibility through AEO
📣 Better outreach through Prospecting Agent
💡 Better outcomes through context

12/05/2026

HubSpot's spring updates brought a lot of new features. But what actually matters for your business?

For us, it comes down to two things. 👇
🔍 AEO helps your brand get found in AI-powered answers, not just traditional search
🎯 Prospecting Agent helps your team spot buying signals and act on them faster

Our latest webinar, led by Bart Kowalczyk, broke both of these down with practical examples and a real conversation about where they fit in business growth. 🚀

AI is no longer just something to test. It is something to act on. ⚡

Our latest webinar on HubSpot's spring updates made that very clear, and we want to share the highlights with you. 🎙️
We zeroed in on two practical changes that are shifting how teams work right now:
🔍 AEO for getting found in answer engines, not just search results
🎯 Prospecting Agent for building pipeline with context, not guesswork

The biggest takeaway from the whole session? The real value is not just unlocking new features. It is about using unified context to make smarter decisions across your sales and marketing.
