HubSpot's Default Contact Properties

Written by Ohad Peter | Dec 2, 2024 3:56:11 PM

Your contact properties store information about your contacts, such as their email address or the last time they filled out a form. Every HubSpot account has default properties that store key information. Several of these properties are automatically populated by HubSpot, such as the lifecycle stage properties.

There are some default contact properties that cannot be edited. Custom contact properties can be created instead of editing default ones.

Here is how you can view the properties of your contacts:

  • Click the settings icon in the top navigation bar of your HubSpot account.
  • Navigate to Properties from the left sidebar menu.
  • Select Contact properties from the first Filter by dropdown menu. The properties will be filtered by the 
    contact object. This list should contain your default contact properties.

Contact Information

  • Annual revenue: annual company revenue.
  • Business units: the business units the contact is assigned to.
  • Buying role: the role that the contact plays during the sales process. It is possible to select more than one role. HubSpot's account-based marketing features take the property value into account. The default values cannot be deleted, but you can edit the property to add new buying roles. 
  • Campaign of last booking in meetings tool: this UTM parameter shows which marketing campaign (e.g. a specific email) referred the contact to the meetings tool for their most recent booking. When you add tracking parameters to your meeting link, this property is populated.
  • City: the contact's city of residence.
  • Close date: the date that the contact became a Customer. Only if the Set lifecycle stage when a deal is won setting is enabled and the contact is moved to the default Customer stage (not a custom stage) will HubSpot automatically set this.
  • Company name: the name of the contact's company. This property is separate from the Name property of the contact's associated company, and from the Associated company shown on the contacts index page. No matter how a company is associated, this property can be manually updated regardless of automatic or manual association.
  • Contact owner: the contact's owner. By creating a custom HubSpot user field type property, you can assign additional users to the contact record.
  • Contact priority (Marketing Hub EnterpriseSales Hub Enterprise, and Service Hub Enterprise only): a ranking system of contacts evenly assigned into four tiers. The chances of a contact becoming a customer are higher when they are in tier one than when they are in tier four.
  • Contact unworked?: an indication if the contact has been worked. It means the contact has not been assigned to an owner, or does not have a sales activity logged in its timeline since its latest owner assigned it.
  • Country/Region: the contact's country of residence. Imports, forms, and integrations can be used to set this.
  • Create date: the date that the contact was created in your HubSpot account.

  • Days to close: the number of days between the day the contact was added to your account and the day they became a customer. Based on the contact's Create date and Close date properties, HubSpot sets this automatically. When a contact lacks a close date, the Days to close property will not be automatically updated. If you want to automatically set the close date based on associated deals, you can either manually update it or turn on the Set lifecycle stage when a deal is won setting.

Based on demographics in standard contact properties and interactions logged in the contact timeline such as tracked emails and meetings, this score is calculated.
