How do I know if my HubSpot setup needs a rebuild or just a cleanup?
Three signals point to a rebuild: lifecycle stages do not map to your actual sales motion, pipelines do not produce a forecast you trust, and reporting requires manual exports to make sense. If only one of those is true, it is usually a cleanup (properties, automation, deduplication). If two or more are true, the architecture is the problem and patching it costs more long-term than rebuilding.
