What We Deliver

Services & Capabilities

We set up the Instantly-to-HubSpot handoff so reps can create cold outreach in Instantly and answer replies in HubSpot. We also review whether another setup fits 20+ reps better.

Instantly-HubSpot Sync

A connection that moves outreach context from Instantly into HubSpot for sales follow-up.

Reps need Instantly for domain rotation, but HubSpot for replies and team-wide sales management.

Tested handoff
InstantlyHubSpot

"A rep creates a cold email in Instantly, then the related reply context is ready in HubSpot for the response."

HubSpot Reply Handling

A reply path that lets reps answer outbound outreach from inside HubSpot.

Instantly is hard for 20+ reps to manage, so replies can get stuck outside the team's CRM process.

Rep ownership checks
HubSpot test results
HubSpotInstantly

"When an Instantly prospect replies, the assigned rep can handle the response in HubSpot instead of working inside Instantly."

20-Rep Sequence Workflow

A sales workflow that keeps outreach setup usable for a larger rep team.

Instantly was designed for much smaller teams, so 20+ reps managing sequences there creates friction.

Role-based setup notes
InstantlyHubSpot

"Your team keeps using Instantly for domain rotation, while 20+ reps work replies and ownership from HubSpot."

Alternate Setup Review

A practical review of whether a different outreach and CRM setup would fit better.

The buyer is unsure if Instantly plus HubSpot is the right setup for a larger sales team.

Workflow Automation

4-6 weeks

Initial problem

The post-deal handoff from sales to delivery involved nine manual steps across CRM, legal, project management, and comms tools — taking 3-5 days.

Our solution

Built workflow automation using n8n: a triggered automated workflow that fires on deal closure, generates the SOW from a template.

Result

Handoff time reduced from 3-5 days to under 4 hours; all nine steps complete reliably on every deal — dropped steps eliminated.

Why Us

What makes us different

When 20+ reps create outreach in Instantly and reply in HubSpot, ownership and send rules need careful checks.

Nothing goes out without your sign-off

We check every Instantly-to-HubSpot reply rule with you before launch, so a rep does not answer the wrong prospect.

How we prove it

Reply-routing rules signed off before go-live.

We recommend what's right for you — not what pays us

We take no referral fees from outreach or CRM vendors. We map Instantly, HubSpot, and any alternate setup before we advise.

How we prove it

Design doc lists tool options with tradeoffs before build.

We don't disappear after launch

We monitor the Instantly-to-HubSpot connection, so missed reply syncs or owner mismatches get caught before your reps do.

How we prove it

Monitoring dashboard included; 30-day post-launch support.

No surprise invoices, ever

We map Instantly, HubSpot, 20+ rep ownership, and any alternate setup into a clear build plan before code starts.

How we prove it

Signed scope doc and weekly updates before code is written.
