How to Migrate from HubSpot to Leadkaun (or Run Alongside)
TL;DR
Export your sales objects from HubSpot (Contacts, Companies, Deals) as CSV, import the live ones into Leadkaun, and let it grade and queue them. The nuance with HubSpot: you often keep HubSpot Marketing and move only the sales-behaviour layer to Leadkaun — so 'alongside' is frequently the end state, not a full replacement.
The bet behind the playbook.
Indian SMBs leave HubSpot for two reasons: USD pricing that climbs with contact count, and the realisation that they're paying for a marketing suite when the actual bottleneck is sales follow-up. HubSpot is excellent at marketing; it's thinner on the sales-behaviour layer — which is exactly what Leadkaun does. So this is usually a partial move, not a rip-and-replace.
Gather these before you start.
- HubSpot access to export Contacts, Companies and Deals
- A Leadkaun account and your ICP defined
- A decision on what to keep in HubSpot (usually Marketing)
Run it in order.
- 01
Decide what actually moves
HubSpot holds marketing (forms, emails, workflows) and sales (contacts, deals). You're moving the SALES-behaviour layer to Leadkaun — grading, prioritisation, follow-up — and typically keeping HubSpot Marketing. Be clear on the split before you export.
- 02
Export your sales objects
In HubSpot, export Contacts, Companies and Deals to CSV (from each object's view, or Settings → Import & Export → Export). You don't need the marketing data — leave it in HubSpot.
- 03
Audit down to live leads
Keep leads with activity in the last 90 days; archive the rest. Don't drag a large HubSpot contact database into Leadkaun — bring the ones your reps are actually working.
- 04
Onboard Leadkaun
Same-day setup: pick your industry for a pre-configured ICP, import the live leads via CSV, and every lead is graded A–F on arrival and dropped into the Priority Queue.
- 05
Run alongside HubSpot
Point HubSpot Marketing's new leads into Leadkaun via CSV export (a native connector and Sheets sync are on the roadmap). HubSpot keeps generating demand; Leadkaun grades and works it. For many teams this alongside setup is the permanent answer.
- 06
Measure over 30 days
Baseline rep adoption, first-response time on Grade A, and ₹ recovered. If Leadkaun is clearly carrying the sales-behaviour load, right-size your HubSpot seats down to what Marketing actually needs.
Where teams usually slip.
- Trying to move marketing too — keep HubSpot Marketing; move only the sales-behaviour layer
- Importing the entire HubSpot contact database instead of live leads
- Paying full HubSpot Sales seats after the sales work has moved to Leadkaun
- Expecting a live HubSpot sync today — leads come across via CSV; a connector is on the roadmap
Questions teams ask mid-rollout.
Keep rolling.
