Free trials are a common way to attract new clients, but can be difficult to track and report on. Zaybra's subscription properties and workflow triggers make it easy to set up a stellar free trial conversion report so your team knows how well your offers work.
Getting started with free trial conversion reporting
To begin, Navigate to your Property settings in HubSpot.
Here you will Create a new “Zaybra Subscription” Property and Label it with a name. (In this Example we used “Free Trial Conversion”)
Choose the Field Type as “Dropdown Select”.
Set up the Field Label options as the following:
- Converted from Free Trial
- Did not convert from Free Trial
- Currently Trialing
- Did Not Trial
Next step: workflows
After you have set up your Field labels, Navigate to your Workflows in HubSpot.
Here we will create a new Zaybra Subscription Workflow. Choose a Custom Object Workflow option and create it with the Zaybra Subscription as the enrollment trigger.
Note: If you don't have Custom Objects and your Zaybra Subscriptions populate as Deals instead, you can create a Deal based Workflow here.
Within the Enrollment Triggers options, set up the Subscription Status to equal “trialing”, “active”, “canceled”.
Select “and” to add another trigger. The second enrollment trigger will be Subscription Status has been updated in the last 1 Day.
Next, Add an If/then branch. The Filters for this branch will be the following:
First, check Converted from Free Trial:
By: Subscription Status has ever been equal to any of trialing,
and Subscription Status equal to any of active.
Then, check Did not convert from Free Trial:
By: Subscription Status has ever been equal to trialing,
And Subscription Status has never been equal to any of active,
And Subscription Status is equal to any of canceled.
Then, check Currently Trialing:
By: Subscription Status is equal to any of trialing.
Then, check Did Not Trial
By: Subscription Status has never been equal to any of trialing.
Under each of these branches, choose to Set a property value action.

Under “Available properties to display”, drag and drop the “Count of Zaybra Subscriptions” and “Free Trial Conversions” properties into the “Displaying” box.
Now you can see on the right that your chart is displaying the filtered information.

Select the option for “is all time”, then click the Update Filter button.
