The wrong CRM

In our experience, nonprofits get bottlenecked working in a CRM that's not the right fit for them.

 A lot of nonprofit orgs suffer from:

  • A CRM that's too complicated. Is the learning curve too steep for the team to adopt successfully? Maybe it's time for a Salesforce to HubSpot migration.

  • A "free" open source CRM that ends up costing a lot of money in ongoing software developer and tech support costs

  • A chaotic system full of redundancies—with member relationship database, email marketing, content management, and customer service all on different platforms

Sound familiar?

We're all in on HubSpot

We provide digital sales and marketing enablement services for nonprofit organizations working across many CRM platforms. This includes plenty of clients who don't have a CRM solution yet.

We're a proud HubSpot Solutions Partner.

HubSpot is the most integrated all-in-one digital business platform we know, and it’s exceptionally user-friendly. 

HubSpot’s portals integrate and streamline your most important organizational activities:

  • Sales/Customer Relationship Management
  • Marketing
  • Content Management
  • Customer service
  • Operations, and
  • E-commerce

They provide tons of high-value resources, like documentation, videos, and webinars, to ensure you get everything you want out of the site. And with our migration, onboarding, and enablement support, your team will ace this powerful CRM.

HubSpot is the most cost-effective, elegant solution we've seen in our decades of digital business enablement work.

And did we mention their 40% nonprofit discount?

As a HubSpot Partner, we provide onboarding and training, and help new or existing HubSpot clients get the most out of their investment.

"Revolutionized our small team!"


The Problem:

The organization was frustrated with CiviCRM. The CRM is open source and free, but it's complex, and required the organization to pay for ongoing technical support and software development, at a substantial cost.

Staff had so many problems with the CRM that they resorted to using "one million Google docs and spreadsheets” to manage a complicated database of constituents, schools and districts, event management tasks, and payments.

There was no accurate source of truth for the organization’s operations.
Their team lacked visibility into their activities and contacts with constituents and stakeholders. They were missing opportunities to develop constituent relationships and focus on big-picture goals.

Our Strategy:

We listened to the organization’s needs, and worked together on solutions. We initiated a transition from CiviCRM to HubSpot. HubSpot’s user-friendly interface and robust integration between sales, customer relationship management, content management, and customer service was a perfect fit. Our personalized, high-touch guidance created a confident onboarding process.


The Results:

We successfully migrated and onboarded the organization to HubSpot. We cleaned up and removed redundancies from their constituent information, MailChimp lists, and even the infamous "million Google docs."

The transition increased the organization’s visibility into their activities, and made their workflow less overwhelming and painful. A more robust, user-friendly platform decreased their dependence on outside technical support moving forward.

We trained them not only to use the new platform, but how to leverage the CRM for more advanced sales and marketing enablement, goal-setting, and building stronger constituent relationships. The organization now enjoys a greater capacity to focus on high-value goals.
