HubSpot Lifecycle Stages
HubSpot lifecycle stages are a built-in contact property that tracks where a person is in the journey from first touch to customer. HubSpot ships with 8 default stages. Most B2B SaaS teams need to customize them. The defaults are a starting point, not a destination.
The HubSpot-specific challenge: lifecycle stage is a single property shared across contacts and companies, but it behaves differently than most properties. It has special automation rules, a built-in hierarchy, and quirks around backward movement. Understanding these mechanics matters more than the stage names themselves.
