Vision Technologies

Launching HubSpot as the Revenue Intelligence Foundation for a B2B Technology Integrator

Situation:

Vision Technologies had operated with a custom-built ERP system the authoritative source of record for customer and company data. As a result, its 8,000+ contact database was populated primarily with finance and operations contacts rather than the marketing and sales stakeholders needed for demand generation. The growth function was being run almost entirely offline (in spreadsheets) with no structured funnel mechanics. Vision engaged Justin Panzer Consulting to launch HubSpot as the system of record for sales and marketing activity.

Challenge:

Building HubSpot on top of a live ERP system required designing the entire data model around that system’s structure rather than HubSpot’s defaults. Simultaneously, Vision needed lifecycle stages, lead scoring, and automated workflows built from scratch alongside a shared definition of what constituted a qualified lead.

The Solution:

I designed and built Vision Technologies’ complete HubSpot CRM and MAP environment across six months — structured to support immediate operational needs and the longer-term goal of full revenue attribution.

Custom Lifecycle Stage Architecture: Replaced HubSpot’s default stages with a custom model — with defined entry/exit criteria and clear marketing-to-sales handoffs.

Lead Scoring System: Built a multi-factor scoring model with 10+ custom workflows covering intent signals, behavioral engagement, ICP fit, lead status momentum, and score decay.

Core Automation Workflows: Implemented eight foundational workflows covering lifecycle stage progression, MQL/SAL handoff, lead routing, SLA governance, and score recalculation — each documented and tested before deployment.

ERP Integration Management: Partnered with the company’s internal IT team and third-party HubSpot consultant on the complex ERP-HubSpot data sync — establishing protocols for record creation, conflict resolution, and ongoing database enrichment to increase the proportion of marketing-reachable contacts over time.

Sales Training & Marketing Dashboard: Led onsite discovery and training with the full revenue team; built the Marketing Dashboard providing leadership visibility into lead volume, lifecycle distribution, MQL conversion rates, and campaign performance.

The Result:

Full HubSpot CRM/MAP launched — custom lifecycle stages, lead scoring, 8 core automation workflows, and marketing dashboard built from a blank environment

10+ custom scoring workflows live and processing engagement, intent, ICP fit, and decay signals across the full contact database

ERP-HubSpot integration operational — complex ERP sync architecture managed and stabilized, with protocols in place for ongoing database development
