Sales Inbox
This article explains how the sales in box is used.
Purpose of sales inbox
- It collects all emails that are sent to sales@wingtra.com
- sales@wingtra.com is used as our general sales email address. We use it with newsletters and it is on our homepage below the quote form.
What are we receiving there
- A lot of general inquiries, out of office notifications and also spam/irrelevant stuff.
- Sometimes partners/reseller reach out there!
- Minority is relevant emails
Inbox Ownership
- Stephie is the owner of the sales inbox
Process incoming
- Messages are automatically assigned to the contact owner.
- Alternatively: Sales inbox owner assigns message owner and use @mention to comment

- Answer within the sales inbox or take care in your own inbox.
- Mark as closed when no more action required or when the owner is taking care in personal inbox.
- For the answer of a lead you will be notified in your gmail account. Make sure you see and check on notifications.

- Downside: you can't forward the email within the sales inbox.
Technical changes backend
- Basil disconnected sales@wingtra.com from hubspot@wingtra.com (which was our gmail account).
- Basil created a google group sales@wingtra.com with alias sales-archive@wingtra.com
- Emails are directly forwarded to the sales inbox and to the group via archive address
- If Hubspot is down, then the group can be used
