Google’s First Big Acquisition In 19 Years? - Hubspot
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 พ.ค. 2024
- Have you noticed that Google hasn’t had a big product launch or acquisition since the 2000s? Back in the day, Google was launching and acquiring winners left and right from Google Maps and Android to TH-cam and Chrome. But since then, Google’s momentum has largely slowed down and that’s not due to a lack of effort. For example, in the 2010s, they launched Google Glass, Google+, and Google Pixel, but these products didn’t live up to Google’s expectations. And more recently, Google has tried to launch AI products such as Google Bard and Google Gemini, but once again, these products have largely fallen to the wayside in favor of ChatGPT. Instead of fighting against this trend, it looks like Google is shifting to go with the flow. They’ve shifted the vast majority of their growth focus to Google Cloud and now, there are rumors that they might buy out enterprise giant Hubspot. This video explains the possibility of Google acquiring Hubspot and how this would redefine the direction of the company permanently.

Google seems to have gone from trying to provide a useful service, and in the process sell some ads, to trying to hit targets to maximize executive compensation and squandering the good reputation of the company.
Maximizing stock value and shareholder returns is what kill so many good companies...
thats the thing public companies are BY LAW required to do this or else stockholders can sue and remove the board so the laws do force this BS
@@admiralkaede that needs to change
Things were fine for a bit after Sundar Pichai took over, but it didn't last too long. Then things really started going downhill when Prabhakar Raghavan took over search and Neal Mohan over TH-cam.
I found everything Google simply increasingly painfull to use, thats without taking ads in consideration. Everything has become either useless (search), suffers from absurd decisions (youtube treatment of creators and users) or full of unnecessary or dumb solutions nobody asked for (android).
Written from pixel 7, never again...
It makes sense. Hubspot's integration would go so well with Analytics
Indeed
A whole new world of data to mine. Don't worry about your personal data being stolen, its already been sold!
@@obsidianjane4413 Lol
@@obsidianjane4413 That isn't anything new; the blackmarket has and always will be, the actual hubspot for data exfiltration.
How do you know what a hub is? Because I don't you must work at the company
Google Aquires Logically Answered next?
Nah hahaha
@@LogicallyAnsweredtechnically they’d be paying themselves
Technically already happened. Technically all of them to some extend
Google is their employer
Hope our beloved LA remains as independent as ever to provide us with such insights!
Dude.. Neither Google or Apple was one of the first to the smartphone scene. They where actually very, very late. They just changed it.
That’s what ended up counting :)
last mover advantage
could agree with google but for "smart" phones specifically,apple wasn't very late
infact 2008 was almost the beginning of the smartphone industry
I remember BlackBerry and Nokia. Used to text girls in highschool during class from my pocket on my old flip phone.
@@AlexanderTheGoodEnough Yeah, there where many more smartphones than just from them im the world. Without keyboard.
You are talking about "dumb phones"
For some reason I confused the logo with Blender and was scared for a moment.
Hahaha
So did i... Was the reason i clicked the video in the first place.
I thought it was Avast antivirus
A company caring about the stock price is fundamentally bad for everyone else
whereas a private company is supposed to think about the public, not about making money.
😮😮😮😮😮😊
Well, which company doesn’t?
Unfortunately, US Courts have decided it's illegal for companies to not care about stock price. Look up Dodge v. Ford Motor Co. (1919)
I 1000% agree with what you said. Companies caring about stock price is the reason why half of the corporate problems happen but it's also inevitable 😥
Note that this is for the ERP/CRM cloud side. Comparing azure/was/gcp marketshares means essentially nothing in the context of business operations software. Also the larger B2C companies have uses for hubspot like establishing partnerships with retailers, promoters and so on (in which case it's an marketing and sales tool mainly with corporate support-portal)
I hope regulators will block this deal completely, just like they blocked Nvidia from acquiring ARM. The IT sector is already heavily monopolised, it doesn’t need to be monopolised even more.
Thank you. This is a nightmare. (Also was anybody else taken aback when he said hubspot started in 2006 then later revealed it’s got a burn rate, I.e. it’s not profitable? That’s 18 years. Motherfucker is a legal adult).
Antitrust has not been enforced since Reagan. Here's hoping.
Well, or you can buy some google stocks and take a seat in the party.

I don't know if this channel is run solo or if there is a whole team behind it but it's really nice to see you active in the comments. 😊
Try to engage on the day of posting :)
With the volume in which he publishes stuff there’s no way he does it alone, probably outsources a bunch of work and then write his own scripts or edits them w his team. Animation and video editing alone would take a significant amount of time far too much for just an individual.
@@LogicallyAnswered I of the main reasons i subscribed and stick around .
RIP HUBSPOT Google abandons everything. If Bing started their own Street View and Maps I would contribute to that instead because Google's completely abandoned user uploaded content for these products. Their uploader cannot ever count 8 seconds correctly if you feed it GPX data in a stable 2 second interval. No one is going to pay Google enterprise rates, because Google don't provide enterprise grade support.
They don’t always. Just 99.99999% of the time ;)
@@thecwwshow8036 Sounds like a rounding error
Dude, this is a 1st rate channel - Thanks !!!!
Thanks for watching man!
As someone who has owned multiple Google products, which they subsequently discontinued which cost me money, I am confident they will run this company into the ground, just like nest and their other acquisitions
ChatGPT is not a company, but a product of OpenAI. OpenAI also not owned by Microsoft, but they are heavily investing to it.
What's that music playing in the background from the 2nd part of this video? (starting at about 2:00) I hear it a lot in your vids.
I still have no idea what sets Hubspot apart from other CRM solutions like Salesforce and Zendesk. This honestly sounds like a horrible venture for Google which makes it highly likely it'll go through.
HubSpot?
Never heard of it...😂😂😂
I am so blissfully innocent
Well, they are a background business
Yeah...my first encounter was when I was taking a digital marketing course
Mine was the Dan Lyons book, I can't remember the title but the cover is a person wearing a unicorn head mask. For anyone who has ever worked in tech marketing, it's a terrifying read.
Hari dude you are living under a rock
Google has acquired plenty of big and small companies throughout the last 19 yrs.
This includes TH-cam, Android, Motorola (eventually sold off) and many more.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_Alphabet
You wrote 73 comments on this channel that shows you have watched more than 100 videos if we take average 12 minutes per video you wasted 20 hrs of your life lol HAHA.
Small point. Even by stop growing Google wouldn't fall to a PE of 10 like AT&T (which has a low PE since it has a lot pf debt. Google has negative debt so even if the (important meteric of the) Enterprise value is relatively the same, it would still have a higher PE than AT&T (my guess is between 15 and 20 rather than between 5 and 10.
I point out these small things because your videos are great and you have been one of my favorites TH-camr for a while.
You can do the sums:
Profit + interest = return on capital
Equity + debt = Enterprise value
Apply that to both and work backwards.
Ah, interesting point
@katrinabryce You are right I could, but I am too lazy for that hahaha. (The proof is the awful grammar of my first comment)
"The first question most of you have is..."
It was. But only for the first few minutes or so. Maximum.
To casually ask at 6:11 (and I still don't know if you're gonna actually answer) is beyond milking it.
infinite growth on a finite planet 💀
Google is a lot like Boeing. It isn't what it used to be. They will mess up the Hubspot too.
Neither Android nor youtube existed 20 years ago so how you can say they bought out youtube 19 years ago is just mental.
Hubspot actually doesn’t make that much money 10k per customer when it comes to B2B sales is quite low
Since the company is also growing internally, I do not complain
I mean it make totally sense for them to buy Hubspot, but they will have to compete with MS, which is huge in ERP and CRM with their Dynamics solutions.
I saw this and the first thing that I thought was "THEY BOUGHT BLENDER!!?" It appears I did not finish reading the title.
Have you read the book 'Disrupted' by Dan Lyons? A journalist gets a job a Hubspot and wrote a tell-all book about it.
How do you square your assertion that Google's not getting any growth in its consumer products with its latest earnings report? Pretty much every segment did well including consumer services like Search, TH-cam, subscriptions?
TikTok recently overtook Google as the go to search engine. And TikTok's affiliate shop as well as their shorts monetization also overtook TH-cam just when major influencers were leaving the platform....and then the US "coincidentally voted" to ban it
What is the difference between Hubspot and ERP?
Chatgpt isn't a company, It's a product by OpenAI which Microsoft kinda owns. Basic details matters. Especially when your channel name is Logically Answered.
Google's attempts to start new services have been halfhearted at best.. like Stadia
True
stadia wasnt bad from what i heard just didn't meet what google expected
@@admiralkaede At its core it wasn't bad, but... it launched as a browser app with only support in a few browsers, no support on chromecasts, and only support on some devices.
4:09 Isn't Pixel line slowly gaining market share?
In the grand scheme not really. But in terms of yoy growth, doing well.
i plan on buying one its a pretty good phone I don't like samsungs junkware that forcibly add and I don't wanna go apple and I don't really wanna buy a chinses phone like one plus
@@admiralkaedethe tensor pixel phones are great, clean stock Rom, easy custom Rom support and monthly security updates
@@admiralkaedeI am on Pixel 6 Pro. Very pleasant. Only thing that I heavily dislike is the 3.5mm jack removal, but every bigger company has done that already…
Love my Pixel 7 Pro! ❤ Fast, great camera, great AI features.
16 times sales without being profitable is a bad deal for anyone.
“Google was the king of acquisitions”
Oracle and IBM: lol cute
Google Pixel were first produced by HTC & Huawei, then they acquired a part of HTC to produce the current Pixels.
Google enterprise like GSuite is not as good as it's competetors..
Google acquired HTC? How did I miss that?
My company is a Hubspot customer and they have a great product & people.
The same thing will happen as with VMWare.
They'll acquire it, announce licensing fees increases in t-1year and it'll bleed b2c clients like crazy as competitors fly in to saturate the new demand.
Surely Google could just set up their own branch to replicate Hupspace for a fraction of the price. Like 1 Billion? Gambling 30-40 billion just seems crazy.
What? Saying Google was a customer first business is insane... GoodleAds?, GoogleCloud? under what rock have you been living at?
If this happens, RIP Hubspot.
Great video as always
Thank you as always Balpreet!
I agree he does make good videos
Would love to see a video on Alimentation Couche-tard the guys that bought Circle K
Interesting, thanks for the suggestion man
@@LogicallyAnswered if you ever need to translate french documentation just reply to this comment and I will contact you by e mail as I am from Quebec
@@qcvitals Would it be _real_ french though? 🤭
Fun fact: Where I am, most of the French speakers I ever heard, were in a Circle-K, literally.
Please make video about jio telecom.
Thanks for the suggestion Shrey
How will it help google already has anlytic integrated in ads , youtube and other products.
Google Workspace and Cloud services are not 'enterprise first' 😅
can you make a video on recruit holdings. it is a pioneer in hr tech.it is an underrated company.they own indeed and glassdoor
Thanks for the suggestion Rajit!
The golden assumption here is that even companies that burn millions of dollars can be bought. And long time monopolizing (Streamlined, as you described it) is the goal here.
Interested in Silo, not willing to buy an iPhone to use it. 😅
Fair enough. Android and Web Platforms coming soon :)
Question: Do business users care about enshitification? Google is the king of enshitification. That's why consumer sentiment is cold on them. Their products aren't very nice to use any more.
4:09 where did the logo disappear for a second xdd
Google ads are longer and longer. It starts to feel like tv ads…
Use Brave browser.
Your music's for your videos makes me feels the vibe from Halloween movie
Hahaha
Like theses bells on 9:51@LogicallyAnswered
If you’re a business, looking for services, you want stability and security. Does Google, with their track record in closing down services and data harvesting offer this? Their whole ethos (openly no longer “don’t be evil”) stifles growth. They need to address this otherwise they are just wasting their resources.
I never bothered to learn the name of the company. I do know their logo. They are one of the apps I am unable to get rid of off my phone.
Open source analytics platform is the way😂😂
I've never heard of HubSpot before.
The spectrum
Microsoft - Big on acquisitions
Google - NULL
Apple - Big on stock buybacks
Uh? Is hubspot listed? Should we buy it?
Hubspot is indeed listed. Whether you buy is completely up to you though
Thinking the same. No price spike yet...
@@mattgoodwin-king2228 its not cheap…or is it…? Bought 1 share. Let’s see what happens :)
well but microsoft hasn't acquire ChatGPT
They bought a big portion of it
thanks
Would this affect Hubspot’s integration with Microsoft products? 🤔
Embrace your uniqueness
This is probably a bot 😂
If the 'adult supervision' / shareholders wanted to make serious bank in the long term, perhaps they should have left the founders to do their thing - they were genuinely trying to create a different type of company (it was a different kind of company). There would have been some big failures, but some spectacular successes. Then again, perhaps the reliance on data and logic was also an anchor, sometimes you have to set off across the ocean using emotion/passion to reach your destination (battered and bruised, without some of those you started with). Also, Deepmind are still the rock stars of AI - solving real, difficult problems and showing human style creativity in the process - why not lean into that approach, but solving/optimising small business problems, rather than this constant 'turing test'/chatbot/language hype?
Imagine having $32bn you can just throw around like that, all the good you could do in the world. It’s just insane amounts of money
Thought Google was acquiring orange theory lol
To boost prices they are giving dividends
They need to diversify as there may be government intervention on their search monopoly.
Bhai aisa content hindi me bhi chahiye 😊
1:09 same color in logo, are they same company
Is Google success mostly from buying out competitors?
now time to sue google, hubspot, and nvidia for illegal data acquisition for AI
I knew about hubspot through the My First Million podcast
Didn't Google acquire Fitbit in 2021?
Saying business do not care about corporate privacy is so incorrect. This channel spits facts like Drake. Smh.
Hubspot? Never heard of them? What is it?
Never heard of Hubspot.
Well, they are a background company
Here to leave my mark
Thanks for being here Hiroshiken!
I have a feeling they will overpay for Hubspot like Sir Elon & Twitter BUT it will no doubt be a worthy acquisition.
You mallu bro?
Where would you even buy a Google phone?
Hubspot ad before 😂
GOOGLE MADE THE MISTAKE OF NOT RECOGNIZING ITSELF, THAT IT HAD GROWN INTO AN ELEPHANT AND HENCE AGILITY IS LOST.. SO ONLY WAY FORWARD IS WITH ACQUISITIONS... REMEMBER THE DAYS IT ACQUIRED MOTOROLA... THAT IS THE GOOGLE ONE WISHES FOR
ChatGPT was not acquired by Microsoft.
How much is a result of don't be evil which is the perception of...you're not forced to use..people choose to use.
Meanwhile musk who spent 44 billion on Twitter
Indeed hahaha
I feel Android is fine (as most of the population uses it).
As a user of both iOS and Android, Android has become a lot better over the years while keeping all the things it was already good at (Customization / Power-User friendly).
If you want a computer to get work done, get Android. If you just need a phone to call/text and to browse Instagram, I can see why iPhone is appealing.
Make a podcast bro
Love the vids. I just noticed you look kinda like Sundar Pichai
Thanks man!
Stadia was great
Logically answered loves to stretch everything. Google revenue is 80-90% consumer facing, if they buy a company that makes 1% of their revenue. Suddenly they become a b2b first company?
what about deepmind? that was 10 years ago
google is a power house. Their growth reflects in recent earnings. google and amazon will win the AI race. Give them 5 years.
G for Government. Don't be fooled.
Never heard of Hubspot. I guess if you've become too big to innovate on your own you can always fallback on acquisitions of companies that can generate ideas.
What's wrong with Boeing these days?
The decade of endless growth is comong to an end i fear.
Google has a bad rep for abandoning stuff and I think that would impact their customers as well. Azure and AWS are way ahead and more reliable than GCP on any day I dont see Google winning here.
well they always launch their products half-assed. Their hardware is not being sold in most parts of the world, pixel line, nest line. even their software has the same treatment. their wallet and google pay service is a mess, its not launched in most parts of the world also.
Google could probably rewrite this software in a year and poach all the customers with free offerings for mere billion.
google self driving is underwhelming? 100k driverless drives a week and growing?
Right?! Waymo is MIND BLOWING.
