Hubspot Service Hub

At Perry Avenue, we help companies get the most out of HubSpot—and in 2025, that means more than just sales and marketing automation. Customer experience is now a key differentiator, and HubSpot's Service Hub is quickly becoming one of the most powerful (and underutilized) tools in the platform.


If your customer support team is still juggling scattered emails, siloed feedback, and manual follow-ups, Service Hub may be exactly what you need to turn support into a revenue-driving function.

Here’s why we believe Service Hub is worth your serious consideration.


1. Deliver a Better Customer Experience—Systematically

Great customer experiences don’t happen by accident. With Service Hub, you get the infrastructure to build repeatable, high-quality support workflows. From live chat and ticketing to automation and reporting, it gives your team everything they need to be responsive, efficient, and helpful—without switching tools or losing visibility.

And because it lives inside the same CRM as your marketing and sales data, support becomes a seamless part of your customer journey, not an isolated department.

2. Centralize Support with a Modern Help Desk

Say goodbye to email threads and sticky notes. The Help Desk in Service Hub turns support into a structured, collaborative process.

  • Tickets are automatically generated from emails, forms, chats, or calls

  • Agents can prioritize, assign, and track progress easily

  • SLA management and automation ensure no one falls through the cracks

Whether you’re a startup or scaling fast, this level of organization makes a big difference in team productivity and response times.

3. Give Customers the Answers They Need—Before They Ask

Self-service is the future of support, and HubSpot’s Knowledge Base makes it easy to deliver it. You can:

  • Build branded FAQ and help centers

  • Track which articles customers use (and which they don’t)

  • Use data to continuously improve your support documentation

This not only reduces the number of repetitive tickets your team receives, but also empowers your customers to solve issues faster—a win-win.

4. Gather Feedback That Actually Helps

Want to know what your customers really think? Service Hub’s built-in surveys make that simple. You can easily deploy:

  • Customer satisfaction (CSAT) surveys

  • Net Promoter Score (NPS)

  • Custom feedback forms at different stages of the customer journey

The best part? All responses are tied back to the contact record in HubSpot. That means your team gets context-rich feedback they can actually use—not just numbers in a spreadsheet.

5. Proactive Support = Happier Customers

The real power of Service Hub is in automation and visibility. With pipelines, workflows, and reporting, you can:

  • Follow up on negative feedback automatically

  • Set triggers for inactive customers or stalled tickets

  • Identify trends and root causes with dashboards

For customer success teams, this is a game-changer. You move from reactive support to proactive success management—all within the same ecosystem your sales and marketing teams are using.

Is Service Hub Right for You?

If you're already using HubSpot for marketing and sales, adding Service Hub is a no-brainer. It connects the dots, closes the loop, and turns support into a strategic function—not just a cost center.

At Perry Avenue, we specialize in customizing Service Hub setups for growing businesses. Whether you need a simple help desk or a full-blown customer success engine, we can help you build the right foundation—and train your team to run with it.
