Retailer Map HubSpot

Before:

Managing and visualizing retail locations in HubSpot was cumbersome. Users had to manually track addresses, generate maps, and attach visuals, making the process slow and error-prone. The existing solution didn’t support automated map screenshots or accurate logo placement for retailers.

The Challenge:

Create a HubSpot-integrated app that generates interactive retailer maps with branded logos, directional indicators, and automated screenshot export to PDFs. The solution needed to handle multiple locations, maintain visual accuracy, and optimize API usage to control costs.

Our Approach:

We developed a custom HubSpot app using Vue.js and Python, integrated with Google Maps APIs and a third-party screenshot service. Dynamic logo placement and directional arrows were implemented to ensure accurate visualization. API usage was controlled with batching logic, and automated PDF export linked directly to HubSpot records for seamless workflow.

The Transformation:

The new app simplifies retailer mapping for HubSpot users. Maps display accurate logos, directions, and distances, and screenshots are automatically attached to HubSpot records. Teams can now visualize locations effortlessly, reduce manual work, and save on Google Maps API costs.

Key Enhancements:

• Interactive Google Maps with accurate logo placement
• Directional arrows and distance indicators
• Automated screenshot capture and PDF export to HubSpot
• Configurable batching logic for API efficiency
• Seamless integration with HubSpot custom objects and files
