Deal6 stepsUpdated for HubSpot seat pricing
OutcomeA deal that has sat open for a week with zero logged activity gets flagged and the owner nudged, catching a deal that stalled before it ever really started, which deal-hygiene-001's "last activity" check cannot see since there is no last activity date to compare against yet.

When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it as the creation-time counterpart to deal-hygiene-001, which only fires once Last Activity Date exists and then goes stale, this fiche catches the case where that date never got populated in the first place.
  • Use it on inbound or auto-created deals where a rep sometimes lets a new deal sit untouched, assuming someone else will pick it up.

Skip it

  • Do not use it on deals created from a source that legitimately has no immediate activity expected, for example a deal auto-created from a signed contract upload where the "activity" already happened outside HubSpot.
  • Do not use the same 7-day threshold this fiche defaults to without checking it against your actual response-time targets, adjust with sales leadership.
