If "Industry" has 31 variations of “SaaS,” your funnel reporting is fake. We fix that so your data works for you, not against you.

Our Step-by-Step HubSpot Implementation Process
We keep it simple.
No fluff.
No extra workshops.
No endless “strategy” decks.
No fluff.
No extra workshops.
No endless “strategy” decks.
This is how we build HubSpot systems that work on day one.
1. Learn How Your Team Works
We start with the real workflow, not theory.
We look at:
We look at:
- how leads are generated
- how reps qualify
- how deals move
- how handoffs break
- where data gets messy
- what leaders cannot see today
Common issues we find here:
- pipeline stages that mean different things to different reps
- marketing handing over unqualified leads
- CS having no visibility into sales promises
- CRM fields no one uses but everyone ignores
This is where we find the root causes, not the symptoms.
2. Build a Solid Data Structure
This is the heart of a clean CRM.
We plan your:
We plan your:
- objects
- associations
- naming rules
- field architecture
- required fields
- master picklists
- standardization rules
Why it matters:
- workflows
- reports
- integrations
- automation
- routing
- lifecycle
This is the “invisible work” most agencies overlook.
This is why our systems last.
3. Design Your Pipelines and Lifecycle
We build:
- sales pipelines
- onboarding pipelines
- ticket pipelines
- lifecycle stages
- lead status logic
With simple, clear, aligned stages.
Signs of a good pipeline:
Signs of a good pipeline:
- reps can explain every stage
- there is one source of truth
- no ambiguous labels
- no dead zones where deals sit for weeks
- leaders can tell where deals get stuck
Signs of a bad pipeline (what you probably have now):
- 18 stages
- half of them are duplicates
- no exit criteria
- reps making up their own rules
We fix this.
4. Automate the Busywork
We automate the boring stuff:
- lead routing
- qualification tasks
- enrichment
- alerts and reminders
- deal creation
- renewal workflows
- handoff steps
- CS notifications
Your team stops doing admin work.
Your CRM keeps itself clean.

Common Challenges in HubSpot Implementation and How We Solve Them
Here’s what we fix every day.
1. Properties built the lazy way
Teams use free-text fields for everything.
This breaks:
This breaks:
- reporting
- automation
- segmentation
- lead scoring
We convert them to clean picklists, standardize values, and fix your data history.
2. Lifecycle stages used as a dumping ground
Everything is an MQL or SQL. Or, there’s no automated transition at all.
This makes conversion tracking impossible.
This makes conversion tracking impossible.
We tie each stage to a real action so lifecycle becomes a reliable metric again.
3. Pipelines with too many unclear stages
If reps cannot explain a stage, it should not exist.
We simplify to stages that match your real buyer journey.
Clean pipelines = cleaner forecasts.
Clean pipelines = cleaner forecasts.
4. Workflows stacked on workflows
This is how:
- loops form
- email bombs fire
- tasks duplicate
- deals get created twice
We remove the junk and rebuild workflows with one clear job each.
5. Integrations mapped without logic
Most teams map fields blindly.
The result:
The result:
- mismatched values
- sync loops
- overwritten data
- corrupted lifecycle
We fix your integration logic so your systems talk cleanly.
6. Reports that lie
If your dashboards feel “off,” they are.
We build systems tied to real numbers:

- revenue
- funnel health
- rep activity
- retention
- renewals

Where Most Agencies Get HubSpot Wrong
Most agencies force you into HubSpot’s defaults.
Templates. Shortcuts. Quick wins.
Then your system collapses in 3 months.
We do the opposite.
Templates. Shortcuts. Quick wins.
Then your system collapses in 3 months.
We do the opposite.
We build HubSpot around:
your process
your model
your data
your team
your tech stack
Real examples we fix weekly:
Free-text State fields
“CA,” “Calif,” “California,” “california,” “CA “
→ reporting junk
→ reporting junk
Industry as ‘Other’ 70% of the time
→ segmentation useless
Workflows firing twice due to OR triggers
→ duplicate tasks, angry reps
Generic pipelines copied from templates
→ reps skip stages and updates become inconsistent
Once we fix these, HubSpot stops feeling heavy and starts acting like a lever.
