Consolidating marketing on HubSpot? Mine automates the mapping between Marketo's lead-program model and HubSpot's contact-campaign architecture — preserving lead data, engagement history, and program membership.

Most enterprise migrations start 6+ months behind schedule. Yours doesn't have to.
This guide is for VPs of IT, data architects, and migration leads at companies moving data from Marketo to HubSpot — whether you're scoping, planning, or mid-program.
Marketo stores marketing data in leads with program memberships, smart campaigns, and engagement programs, while HubSpot uses contacts with lifecycle stages, workflows, and campaign attribution. Mine translates Marketo's program-centric model to HubSpot's contact-centric architecture — mapping lead fields to contact properties and program membership to list/workflow enrollment.

How Mine automates your Marketo to HubSpot migration
Mine maps Marketo lead fields to HubSpot contact properties with type translation — detecting where Marketo's field types need HubSpot property type adjustments and where new properties need creation.
Program memberships are translated to HubSpot equivalents — email programs to campaign associations, engagement programs to workflow enrollment history, event programs to custom properties with attendance status.
Lead scoring criteria are documented field-by-field — Mine catalogs every scoring rule trigger and point value so the HubSpot admin can rebuild the scoring model accurately.
Mine generates a Smart List-to-active list conversion document — each Marketo Smart List's criteria translated to HubSpot's filter syntax for faster list recreation.

Common challenges migrating from Marketo to HubSpot
Program membership to HubSpot equivalents
Marketo tracks which leads are members of which programs with statuses (Registered, Attended, Engaged). HubSpot doesn't have a native program concept — program membership must be converted to list membership, campaign associations, or custom properties. Mine maps each Marketo program type to the optimal HubSpot equivalent.
Explore related migrations →Lead scoring model translation
Marketo lead scoring uses behavior and demographic triggers to increment scores. HubSpot has its own lead scoring (available on Professional+) with different criteria structures. The scoring rules don't migrate — they must be rebuilt. But historical scores can be preserved as custom properties, and Mine documents the scoring criteria for HubSpot rebuild.
Explore related migrations →Email asset and template migration
Marketo email templates use proprietary markup (mktoContainer, mktoModule, mktoEditable). HubSpot uses its own template language (HubL). Email templates must be rebuilt in HubSpot — they can't be directly migrated. Email performance data (opens, clicks, sends) can be preserved as historical records.
Explore related migrations →Smart List to active list conversion
Marketo Smart Lists use complex filter criteria with AND/OR logic, custom activity triggers, and nested conditions. HubSpot active lists use similar but differently structured criteria. Each Smart List must be analyzed and recreated using HubSpot's filter syntax.

9 data objects typically migrated
| Source Object | → | Target Object |
|---|---|---|
| Lead | → | Contact |
| Lead Score | → | HubSpot Score / Custom |
| Program Membership | → | List / Campaign / Custom |
| Activity Log | → | Timeline Activity |
| Custom Object | → | Custom Object (Enterprise) |

| Email Performance | → | Custom properties |
Typical enterprise migrations include 500K–10M+ records across these objects. Mine handles profiling and mapping at any scale.
The cost of manual Marketo to HubSpot migration
Companies typically handle this with CSV exports from Marketo and HubSpot's import tool. The program membership history, engagement data, and scoring model translation require extensive manual work.
Frequently asked questions
In one enterprise migration, a single field mapping error in customer master data caused $100K in billing discrepancies that went undetected for 6 months.
