[The Hub] Product Reporting + client emailing/data export

1

Hi – I’m looking for more expanded product/client reporting features for the clients & billing hub.

– Ability to see at high level how many clients are actively subscribed to each product. Also, to filter granularly by failed payments etc.

THEN
– Ability to bulk email client segments, or all clients at once with updates, or to upsell clients from one product to another.
– If that’s not possible, at least the ability export a filtered list of client emails that we could copy/paste into email platform would be helpful.

These would be a massive value add to this platform.

Thanks!

    Hi John

    I hope you are doing well.

    The filter feature is a really good idea and we will pass it to our developers, for the Bulk email had you considered Mailchimp with Zapier?

    I checked Zapier and it should be able to catch the plan name, I believe this would be related:

    Then in Mailchimp, you can tag or segment your audiences based on specific plans.

    I checked the trigger options, unfortunately, there are only one for failed payment, but not for Payment overdue but it does have one trigger for failed payments that could be used to create some automated emails.

    Hey Patrick – Thanks for the reply here! Would love to see the advanced filtering/reporting implemented for high-level decision-making and analytics.

    As for the Zap + Mailchimp idea, I did not realize that could work – good to know! I will check into this.

    Another thought on that – it would be awesome if the Hub client plugin could pull customer data back into your WordPress site, so you could use any prebuilt plugins and integrations from there to market as you would a normal eCommerce site. Maybe this could backward integrate with your other plugin Hustle, so then you could do email marketing to your Hub clients right from the parent site that Client Hub is setup on. Not sure if that’s feasible, but let me know what you think.

    Lastly – Is there a list of automated emails that the hub already sends for failed payment, subscription reminders, etc that I could see somewhere?

    Many thanks!

    Hi John

    Thanks for response!

    Another thought on that – it would be awesome if the Hub client plugin could pull customer data back into your WordPress site (… )

    I’m not sure if I fully got the idea. I’m guessing you’re not referring to simply “embedding” or “displaying” some information but rather actually fetching that to the site; could you explain a bit more how this should work? If you could just describe some example scenario it would be great!

    Maybe this could backward integrate with your other plugin Hustle, so then you could do email marketing to your Hub clients right from the parent site that Client Hub is setup on. Not sure if that’s feasible, but let me know what you think.

    Hustle isn’t designed to “manage” or “do” any such mail marketing directly. It can sand basic single e-mails but other than this, it’s more of a “lead catch” solution as it can help gather user data (via popups etc) and can push them to external services too but that’s it – you can’t manually send newsletters or notifications from it or schedule e-mails in it. All that needs to be done in either a 3rd-party plugins or directly in the external service to which Hustle is integrated to push user data to.

    Lastly – Is there a list of automated emails that the hub already sends for failed payment, subscription reminders, etc that I could see somewhere?

    Yes, take a look at here (in sub-sections of this docs you’ll find lists of e-mails):
