💡 Expert tips: if you may use properties for sales, outbound, or any external communications => you should use a clean version of the name and properties. For example, to store a CRM name, it's better to use it as a field type a Dropdown, or a Checkbox(es).

  2. Used a HubSpot Workflow to match the unclean property with the clean property
