[My Story]

Most projects I take on are stuck in the gap between marketing and engineering, with the campaign side and the build side each waiting on the other and nobody owning the bit in between.

That gap is what ELSYS Lab does. I set up HubSpot properly, wire the automations that remove the manual steps around it, and build the custom web apps for the cases where bending an off-the-shelf tool would cost more than replacing it.

Expertise

[Services]
[01] [HubSpot]

The whole portal, not only the parts you can click together. Data model and custom objects, workflows and lifecycle reporting, CMS themes and templates, and the coded layer underneath it: custom modules, coded actions, CRM extensions, programmable emails and serverless functions.

[02] [Marketing Automation & RevOps]

Workflows, lifecycle stages, lead scoring and the reporting on top, removing the manual steps between marketing, sales and delivery. Built to be readable by the people who own them.

[03] [AI & Automation]

The repeated work off your hands, with something back you can check. A fixed routine that goes through your mail, your tasks and your numbers every morning and lays them out on one screen, connections that run by themselves, and AI that works inside your own systems instead of beside them. With the line drawn honestly: where it has to be right every time, the machine proposes and a person decides.

[04] [Integrations & Middleware]

Systems that have to agree with each other, and the layer in between that sees to it. HubSpot to your ERP, your shop or your product database, so a customer, an order or a price is entered in one place only. Including when something drops out for a moment: what arrives twice is not kept twice, and what fails is tried again instead of quietly disappearing. And the numbers from all those systems brought together into one report.

[05] [Branding & UX]

Positioning first, then the identity that follows from it: logo, type system, palette and tone of voice, written down in a brandbook so it survives being handed to someone else. Then sitemap, wireframes and interface design, with the structure settled before a single visual decision.

[06] [Custom CRM Systems]

For when the way you work fits no package on the market, or the licences cost more than they bring in. Your own database, your own flows and real custom features, built around how your business works. Clients, projects, deals and contacts in one place, with the mail, the notes and the reporting beside them, and AI taking over the routine part. No price per user, and it stays yours.

[07] [Custom Web Apps]

Astro, React, TypeScript and Supabase, for the cases where an off-the-shelf tool would cost more to bend than to replace.

[Process]
1

A short call first, to work out what the project actually has to do and whether I am the right person to do it.

Then scoping. Requirements get weighed and ranked rather than guessed at, so what gets built, what gets left out and which decisions still hold in three years are all deliberate.

Then I build, working to proper standards: version control, a staging site you can open at any time, and nothing changed straight on the live one. You follow it as it goes rather than seeing it at the end.

Launch, and then we evaluate it together.

Let's build something remarkable and grow your business.
