Use this interactive demo to learn how to log emails in HubSpot.

‍

Logging emails in HubSpot allows you to track your email conversations and automatically save them to contact records for better visibility and follow-ups.

  1. Log in to your HubSpot account and navigate to your main dashboard.
  2. Click on CRM from the left side panel, and select Contacts from the dropdown list.
  3. Search for and open the Contact Record you want to log an email for.
  4. Click on the Activities tab, and select Emails to filter and view email communications specifically.
  5. Click Log Email to manually record an email conversation you've had outside HubSpot.
  6. Add the email body text to capture the full context of your communication.
  7. Click Log email to save this entry to the contact's timeline.

📌 Why this matters

Logging emails creates a complete communication history that your entire team can access, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks when colleagues handle follow-ups or you're out of office. Beyond simple record-keeping, this data becomes invaluable for identifying communication patterns and timing that lead to successful deals. When you review logged emails months later, you'll spot which messaging resonated with similar prospects, turning your past conversations into a playbook for closing future opportunities more effectively.
