With offices in Sydney and Seattle, this client is a global leader in accounts receivable automation software, helping businesses get paid faster. While their tech stack was strong, their quoting process was stuck—slowed down by disconnected forms, manual workflows, and limited CRM adoption.

The problem

The client’s original HubSpot setup had become a friction point across their organisation, leading to inefficiencies in quoting, manual data entry, and inconsistent user adoption. Sales, Marketing, and Service teams struggled with disjointed workflows and a lack of integration between HubSpot and Chargebee, their subscription billing platform. This disconnect not only slowed down their quote-to-cash cycle but also diminished confidence in the CRM system itself—resulting in lower staff engagement, reduced visibility into customer data, and a growing gap between operational needs and system capability.

Problem 1:

The original HubSpot setup had become a bottleneck. Staff were forced into manual updates, pipeline inefficiencies, and disjointed quoting workflows—especially across the marketing, sales, and service teams.

Problem 2:

This lack of integration created duplicate data, billing inefficiencies, and low confidence across teams who needed reliable, real-time visibility.

The solution

We began with a full audit of their HubSpot portal, exposing hidden inefficiencies and missed opportunities. From there, we redesigned their forms for stronger lead qualification and implemented intelligent lead scoring that allowed marketing to hand off leads more confidently to sales.

We then remapped their sales and service pipelines, aligning lifecycle stages with internal processes and ensuring that every deal and ticket landed in the right hands.

The standout feature? A custom-coded Quote-to-Cash tool integrated with Chargebee via API. We built custom objects inside HubSpot to align with Chargebee’s data structure. Subscription IDs are now automatically applied to Company and Deal records, enabling a seamless connection between quoting, billing, and client management.

Automation completed the picture: custom-coded workflows now handle product tagging, subscription updates, and internal alerts—turning HubSpot into a living system that reflects the true state of every deal in real time.
