Are you a school using iSAMS and still juggling spreadsheets and disconnected admissions data?

We’ve got something exciting to share....

🎉 The iSAMS Admissions Data Sync app is officially live on the HubSpot App Marketplace.

Built in partnership with Cursor, this is a big step towards making admissions simpler, more connected, and far less manual for schools using iSAMS.

🔄 Sync admissions data from HubSpot to iSAMS
📊 Get a live view of sync activity
👀 See deal-level sync status directly in HubSpot

No more spreadsheets. No more disconnected systems. Just a smoother, more efficient admissions journey from first enquiry to enrolment.

We’re delighted to welcome Tara Cooper to the HubGem team 👋✨

Tara joins us as an Admin Executive, bringing valuable experience from within an independent school environment 🎓. She’s worked across customer-facing roles and systems, with hands-on exposure to CRM and education processes, giving her a strong foundation to support both our team and our clients.

What stood out immediately was her approach. Thoughtful, proactive, and genuinely aligned with how we work at HubGem.

As we continue to grow, it’s important that every new addition strengthens not just what we deliver, but how we deliver it. Tara is a great example of that, with her wealth of experience working in education an eduction setting.

We’re excited to have her on board and looking forward to what’s ahead 🚀.

We did it! 🎉

HubGem LIVE: Modernising Marketing & Admission using HubSpot - our very first event - and what a moment it was!

From the early setup to a room full of energy, ideas, and collaboration… every part of the day reminded us why we do what we do. Bringing together the education sector to share, learn, and grow alongside our clients and partners meant everything.

Inspiring talks. Innovative thinking. Incredible people.
And a team that made it all happen!

We’re so proud of Team HubGem for creating something truly special - and so grateful to everyone who showed up, supported us, and celebrated with us.

A huge thank you to our partners and sponsors, including our headline sponsor hapily, as well as Unify Schools and Insycle - and to everyone who joined us for the celebrations (and helped us mark a pretty special award win too - Best Overall People Experience at the British HR Awards🏆)

This was just the beginning!

Thank you for being part of our first ever
Roll on 2027… 👀

We’ve been named ‘Best Overall People Experience’ at the British HR Awards 🎉

But this one feels especially personal.
Because it’s not about policies or perks. It’s about people. How we support each other, challenge each other, and show up every day

At HubGem, the way we work together is the work.
🔹 Trust to speak up and improve how things are done
🔹 Real ownership, without layers getting in the way
🔹 Learning built into the job, not something separate
🔹 Feedback that turns into action, quickly

That’s what makes the difference. Not just for us, but for the education organisations we support.

When the team experience works, everything else gets better - simpler, faster and more consistent.

We're really proud of this amazing team of people and what they create together every day 🙌

And thank you to the British HR Awards and judging panel. We’re incredibly proud to be recognised alongside organisations doing this properly.

HubSpot wasn’t the problem.
The setup was.

Gravity Learning, a training provider, had already invested in HubSpot - but it wasn’t delivering the value it should. Disconnected processes, low adoption, and a system that didn’t reflect how they actually work.

So they partnered with HubGem 🤝

Working with
Alana Burman, Director of Learning and Organisational Development at Gravity Learning, we started with a full CRM audit to establish what needed to change.

From there, we mapped their processes together, then rebuilt and tested HubSpot around how the organisation actually operates.

The result?

A fully aligned CRM and a true single source of truth - improving collaboration, visibility, and decision-making across the business 🚀

“It’s like a single source of truth and like a shared brain… making collaboration easier and decisions more intelligent.” - Alana Burman, Gravity Learning

Education marketing and admissions teams using HubSpot have a wealth of powerful tools at their disposal.

But they don’t have the time to keep up with them.

So they don’t need more from HubSpot. They need more clarity on what to do with it.

Because right now in HubSpot:
➡️ HubSpot’s tools and features are constantly evolving to meet user needs
➡️ Teams are already stretched
➡️ It’s not always clear what to focus on

So HubSpot gets used… but not fully leveraged. And this is where opportunity is missed for many teams.

That’s exactly why we created Hidden Gem 💎
A subscription platform designed for education marketing and admissions teams who want to:
🔹 Stay on top of what’s changing in HubSpot without the overwhelm
🔹 Understand how updates actually apply to education marketing and admissions
🔹 Continuously improve enquiry journeys with practical, real-world examples
🔹 Reduce manual work through smarter use of automation and tools
🔹 Build confidence in how to use HubSpot day-to-day

No generic advice. Just education-specific insight you can actually apply!

So you can spend less time figuring things out, and more time improving the journeys that matter.
