Challenge
The client lacked infrastructure to match growth, with manual processes and limited visibility hindering scalability. Sales lived in inboxes, courses were managed via spreadsheets, and marketing efforts lacked individual tracking.
What we delivered
We implemented a comprehensive HubSpot system, integrating sales pipelines with automated nurturing and Xero for invoicing. Custom objects were built for 'Care Coins' and training delivery was automated from sale to certificate issuance.
Outcome
The client now has structured, trackable sales and automated training delivery, freeing up staff time. Care Coins are productised with real-time tracking, providing live visibility across sales, delivery, and operations for scalable growth.
