If you use HubSpot's marketing hub you can create and add graphics to your social media posts
directly from your social dashboard without even leaving HubSpot. So in this tutorial I'm
going to show you two quick and easy ways to do this by integrating your HubSpot account with ...
Canva! If you're not currently using HubSpot's marketing hub then don't worry.
Martin and Elisa Shervingon, the founders of Plus Your Business
and HubSpot Platinum Partners, have an exclusive
and very generous offer for you. I'll be talking a little bit more about that later in the video so
make sure you keep your eyes peeled! If you're new to this channel I'm Nicky Pasquier, I'm a

So I've created a social media image to promote my latest YouTube video and I want to transfer
it directly to my HubSpot marketing hub. So I'm going to go to the left hand side toolbar,
scroll right down to the bottom, keep scrolling, keep scrolling until I find the
More button with the three little dots. I'm going to click on it and then I'm going to
scroll down the Apps and Integrations until I find the HubSpot icon. I'm going to click on it
and now I can connect my Canva account with HubSpot. So I'm going to click on the white
Connect button and then carefully follow the set of instructions that appear on my screen.
I'm going to locate my HubSpot account and click on the link
I need to click here to connect the app and confirm I'm not a spammy bot.
I'm just going to reduce the sidebar so it's easier to see. To transfer this image over
to my HubSpot account I'm going to go to the top right hand corner of my toolbar,
find the Share section and click on the three little dots,
scroll down until I find the HubSpot icon and i'm going to click on that. I'm going
to select my file type so I want to share this particular image as a .PNG file and click on Save
Canva will now save my image directly to my HubSpot account.
So I'm going to click on this tiny link that says View in HubSpot
And there is my Canva image! The next step I need to take is connect my social media accounts
with HubSpot. Looking at the HubSpot toolbar I can see a tab that says Marketing which I'm
going to click, and then select Social. From here I'm going to connect my social media accounts.
I'm going to select LinkedIn just for now but you can choose whichever one you want. And again all I
need to do is follow the easy set of instructions on my screen to connect LinkedIn with HubSpot
I don't use my business account very much so I'm going to select my personal account.
And now all I need to do is click on the Next button.
And here I am on my HubSpot social media desktop.
I'm now going to show you the TWO different ways to create and share a social media post
directly from HubSpot. I need to click the orange button that says Create Social Post
and I'm going to select my LinkedIn network. I'm going to type the text for my caption and click on
this little icon to insert an image.
And I can see the Canva graphic which I transferred over to HubSpot.
So I can click on that to select it and add it to my post. I can now preview my post
and once I'm happy I can either schedule the post or save it as a draft.
The second easy way to add a Canva graphic to a post is
once you've got to this stage here, instead of selecting one of
the images you've already transferred go down to the bottom of the screen and you'll see a little
button that says Design with Canva. Click on that, click on the template you want to use,
so I'm going to select social media and HubSpot will now transfer me over to Canva
without actually leaving HubSpot. I now have the option to create a graphic from scratch or I can
select a template which I've already created from one of my folders.
I'm going to name my template
and then click on Save. And Canva is magically transferring my template over to HubSpot.
And there it is! So all I need to do now is click on the image to insert it into my post
And as I did before all I have to do now is click on either Schedule Post or Save as a Draft
And if you're wondering where on earth all your Canva graphics go once you transfer them
to HubSpot go to the Marketing tab again, click on it, find Files and Templates, click on Files
and you'll see a little subfolder that says Canva Images. And you'll find them right here
And that is all there is to it. Now I mentioned at the start of this video that I have a very
