How to Change Lifecycle Stage in HubSpot

Use this interactive demo to learn how to update a company's lifecycle stage in HubSpot CRM.

Quick summary

Changing the lifecycle stage in HubSpot CRM lets revenue teams accurately reflect where a company stands in the sales pipeline. You can update the stage for a single record via the Companies list view or bulk update multiple records at once using the inline edit toolbar.


Steps

  1. Navigate to CRM > Companies in your HubSpot account.
  2. Scroll right in the Companies list to reveal the lifecycle stage column.
  3. Click the dropdown menu in the lifecycle stage column and choose the new stage for the record.
  4. Click Save to confirm the lifecycle stage change.
  5. To bulk update multiple records, select the checkboxes next to each company you want to update.
  6. Choose Edit from the action bar that appears above the table.
  7. In the bulk edit view, locate the Lifecycle Stage property and select the updated stage.
  8. Return to the Companies page to verify the updated lifecycle stage is reflected for all selected records.

📌 Why this matters

Keeping lifecycle stages accurate in HubSpot CRM is essential for aligning sales and marketing teams around where each company sits in the buyer journey. Up-to-date lifecycle data powers smarter segmentation, more relevant outreach, and accurate pipeline reporting. HubSpot's ability to update lifecycle stages both individually and in bulk means teams can maintain clean CRM data without manual, record-by-record editing. This makes it easier to prioritize high-value accounts, trigger lifecycle-based automation, and forecast revenue with confidence.
