Investment & next steps
08 / 09
Your dedicated Forbidden consultant, with extensive HubSpot experience, will lead the project from start to finish. We ensure senior ownership and consistent communication, providing a single point of contact for Astec Precision throughout the implementation journey.
We will map your current processes, including your sales journey and Progress Plus integration points, to design a HubSpot solution that fits your operations. Our phased approach ensures a smooth transition, focusing on critical functionality first to deliver value quickly without overwhelming your team.
HubSpot will become your Single Source of Truth for all client communications and sales activities, integrating seamlessly with your existing Microsoft environment. We will work with your CSV data, ensuring accurate migration and a robust foundation for reporting and follow-up actions.
Beyond initial setup and training, we provide a month of dedicated support for snagging and adjustments. Our ongoing support plans ensure your team maximises HubSpot's capabilities, adapting to evolving needs and preventing technical debt as your business grows.

What happens after 12 months?
We will hold your monthly subscription pricing from the first phase until you cancel. If you later resume beyond this, it would revert to our rate card pricing. Following the initial 12-month term, the Bronze Protection Plan automatically continues on a rolling monthly basis at £190 + VAT per month, unless cancelled in accordance with the agreement terms.
