HubSpot Consultant: Get the Full Potential of Your CRM
Looking for a HubSpot consultant who can turn your CRM from a contact database into a revenue-generating machine? At MakeAutomation, we help businesses maximize their HubSpot investment through strategic implementation, custom automation, and direct integrations that connect HubSpot to the rest of your tech stack.
Whether you are just getting started with HubSpot or need to optimize an existing portal, our consulting services bridge the gap between HubSpot’s out-of-the-box capabilities and your unique business requirements.
Why Hire a HubSpot Consultant?
HubSpot is a powerful platform, but its true potential is often underutilized. Most businesses only scratch the surface of what is possible, leaving money on the table through inefficient processes, disconnected tools, and missed automation opportunities.
A HubSpot consultant helps you:
- Accelerate time-to-value: Get up and running faster with expert guidance
- Avoid costly mistakes: Prevent data structure issues that are hard to fix later
- Maximize ROI: Ensure you are using the right features for your business goals
- Integrate smoothly: Connect HubSpot to your existing tools and workflows
- Scale efficiently: Build a foundation that grows with your business
Our HubSpot Consulting Services
HubSpot Implementation & Setup
New to HubSpot? We handle the complete setup including account configuration, user management, data import, and initial training. We ensure your portal is structured correctly from day one.
CRM Optimization & Data Management
Clean, organize, and optimize your contact database. We create custom properties, set up lifecycle stages, design deal pipelines, and implement data governance practices that keep your CRM healthy.
Marketing Automation Configuration
Build sophisticated workflows that nurture leads from first touch to closed deal. We create email sequences, lead scoring models, behavioral triggers, and personalization strategies that drive conversions.
Sales Pipeline Design & Enablement
Design sales pipelines that match your actual sales process. We configure deal stages, automation rules, sales sequences, and reporting dashboards that give your team visibility and efficiency.
Custom HubSpot Integrations
This is where we shine. Using n8n, custom APIs, and middleware, we connect HubSpot to tools that do not have native integrations. Sync data bi-directionally, trigger actions across platforms, and create unified workflows.
Reporting & Analytics Setup
Build custom dashboards and reports that track the metrics that matter to your business. From attribution reporting to revenue forecasting, we ensure you have visibility into performance.
Case Study: B2B SaaS Company HubSpot Transformation
From Spreadsheet Chaos to Automated Revenue Machine
A growing B2B SaaS company was managing leads across spreadsheets, email, and a basic CRM. Their marketing team used one tool, sales used another, and customer data lived in yet another system. The result? Lost leads, missed follow-ups, and no visibility into the funnel.
The Challenge:
- 3,000+ leads scattered across multiple systems
- No lead scoring or qualification process
- Sales reps spending 4+ hours daily on data entry
- Marketing had no visibility into which campaigns drove revenue
- Customer onboarding was entirely manual
Our HubSpot Solution:
- Migrated all data into a unified HubSpot CRM structure
- Designed 4-stage sales pipeline with automated stage advancement
- Created lead scoring model based on firmographic and behavioral data
- Built 12 automated nurture sequences across the buyer journey
- Integrated HubSpot with their product database via custom API
- Connected their email marketing, ad platforms, and support tools
- Implemented revenue attribution reporting
The Results (6 Months Post-Implementation):
The marketing team now knows exactly which campaigns drive revenue. Sales reps focus on selling instead of data entry. Customer onboarding happens automatically.
HubSpot + n8n: Advanced Automation That Goes Beyond Native Workflows
Most HubSpot consultants stop at HubSpot’s native features. We go further by combining HubSpot with n8n, a powerful workflow automation tool that extends what is possible.
What n8n + HubSpot enables:
- Complex conditional logic: Branching workflows that HubSpot’s native tools cannot handle
- Multi-system orchestration: Coordinate actions across 5+ platforms in a single workflow
- Custom API integrations: Connect HubSpot to proprietary systems, databases, and legacy software
- Data transformation: Manipulate and transform data between systems with custom code
- Self-hosted options: Keep sensitive data on-premise while still integrating with HubSpot
- Cost efficiency: Handle high-volume automation at a fraction of Zapier’s cost
As n8n experts, we build sophisticated automation that connects HubSpot to your entire tech ecosystem, not just the tools with pre-built integrations.

Phase 2: Strategy & Roadmap
Based on our findings, we create a customized implementation roadmap. This includes data architecture, workflow design, integration requirements, and a phased rollout plan aligned with your priorities.
Phase 3: Implementation
We execute the plan—configuring your portal, building workflows, setting up integrations, and migrating data. You receive regular progress updates and opportunities for feedback.

We do not just build and leave. Your team receives comprehensive training on the new systems, plus detailed documentation for ongoing management.

- Industry-specific tools: Integration with vertical software (e.g., legal practice management, medical records)

Why Choose MakeAutomation as Your HubSpot Consultant?
Technical Depth Meets Marketing Strategy
Most HubSpot consultants are marketers who learned the platform. We are technologists who understand marketing and sales. This means we can solve complex technical challenges while keeping business outcomes front and center.
Integration Specialists
Our expertise in n8n and custom API development means we are not limited by HubSpot’s native integration library. If you need HubSpot to talk to a system that “does not integrate,” we can make it happen.
Process-Driven Approach
We do not just configure features, we optimize processes. Every recommendation ties back to improving your workflows, saving time, or increasing revenue.
Transparent Communication
No jargon, no surprises. We explain what we are doing and why, in terms you understand. You stay in control while we handle the technical execution.
