The Challenge

How do you empower employees to create their own workflows?

Foothill Credit Union selected HubSpot for its robust customization options and seamless data integration capabilities. With WebStrategies' expertise, HubSpot provided a platform that met the credit union's complex automation and data needs. The ability to control workflows internally, without relying on an IT department or third-party, was a game changer.

Restricted Workflow Management

The previous email platform required third-party support for creating workflows, causing delays and inefficiencies.

Data Integration Challenges

Their core system (Jack Henry Symitar) does not directly integrate with marketing tools, forcing manual data uploads.

No Automated Member Engagement

There were no workflows for onboarding, abandoned applications, or product-specific campaigns, limiting personalized member engagement.

    Automated follow-ups for five key products: membership, credit cards, personal loans, auto loans, and home equity lines of credit.

  • Product-Specific Onboarding

    Created tailored workflows for onboarding specific products, enhancing messaging for services like checking accounts and credit cards.

  • Auto Loan Campaigns

    Implemented workflows to recapture members nearing loan end terms for renewals.

  • Credit Card Points Management

    Set up reminders for points expiration to help members maximize benefits.

  • Cross-Sell and Retargeting Campaigns

    Configured tracking and personalized emails to retarget members by product interest, increasing conversion rates.

Partnering with an expert like WebStrategies to manage the powerful Hubspot platform allowed us to do what we have been envisioning before but cannot due to our antiquated and restrictive system. With HubSpot, we now offer personalized and automated messaging that meets our objectives––opening new membership, driving loan growth, and product adoption. It’s like having another marketing person who loves what they do. Kudos WS!
