Questions
Frequently asked questions
What causes dirty CRM data?
Dirty data comes from entry paths that skip validation: CSV imports, integrations writing directly through the API, and manual entry without required fields. It compounds because nobody owns cleanup — each quarter adds duplicates, bounced emails, and half-filled records until reporting stops matching reality.
How do I fix dirty HubSpot data?
Work in order: deduplicate first, then fill required properties, then clean bounced and invalid emails, then close the entry path that created the mess. Doing it in the other order means redoing work — bulk-filling fields before deduplicating just means merging conflicting values later.
How much does bad CRM data cost?
The direct costs are database tier pricing on records you cannot email and rep time spent on duplicates and bad contacts. The larger cost is decisions made on numbers that do not reflect reality. RevTrace estimates revenue impact per finding using your portal's own deal data rather than an industry average.
