How to Change Lead Status in HubSpot

Use this interactive demo to learn how to update lead status in HubSpot CRM individually or in bulk.

Quick summary

Changing lead status in HubSpot CRM lets sales teams track where each contact stands in the pipeline, from first touch to closed deal. You can update the Lead Status property for a single contact or edit multiple contacts at once using HubSpot's bulk edit feature.


Steps

  1. Navigate to CRM > Contacts in your HubSpot account.
  2. Open the specific contact record you want to update and locate the Lead Status property.
  3. Click the dropdown menu and choose the new lead status (e.g., Connected, Open deal).
  4. To bulk update lead status, select the checkboxes next to all the contacts you want to change.
  5. Choose Edit from the action bar above the contacts table.
  6. In the bulk edit view, locate the Lead Status property and use the dropdown menu to apply the new status to all selected leads.
  7. Confirm the changes and view the updated lead status on the contacts list.

📌 Why this matters

Keeping lead status accurate in HubSpot is essential for sales teams to prioritize outreach, measure pipeline health, and ensure no prospect falls through the cracks. HubSpot's Lead Status property gives revenue teams a real-time view of where every contact stands in the sales process, from new leads to open deals. The ability to bulk edit lead status across multiple contacts at once saves significant manual effort and keeps CRM data clean at scale. Accurate lead status tracking directly improves forecasting accuracy, handoff quality between marketing and sales, and overall CRM hygiene.
