The Client
Greenix is a fast-growing pest control provider with thousands of service routes across the U.S. As the company scaled, marketing operations were fragmented across FieldRoutes, SQL Server, and disparate systems. To drive growth, Greenix partnered with Aptitude 8 to implement HubSpot Marketing Hub, integrate FieldRoutes data, and design future-state processes that aligned marketing, presales, and sales operations.
The Challenge
Discovery surfaced several operational and technical gaps as Greenix scaled its nationwide pest control operations and marketing infrastructure:
- Disconnected data across systems: Customer, deal, and subscription data lived in SQL Server and FieldRoutes, with no centralized CRM visibility for marketing or sales teams.
- Delayed time-to-value: A custom integration approach would delay HubSpot Marketing Hub adoption by ~90 days, preventing timely campaign execution and ROI.
- Complex data transformation requirements: Migrating 3+ years of historical customer data required detailed field mapping, transformation logic, and executive validation before execution.
- Inefficient sales and presales handoffs: Lack of standardized workflows across qualification and sales teams created inconsistencies in lead routing, follow-up, and pipeline management.
- Telephony integration gap: Genesys remained the preferred telephony provider, but lacked a native integration with HubSpot, limiting visibility into call activity and engagement data.
Without a scalable data and integration strategy, Greenix risked delayed implementation, fragmented reporting, and continued inefficiencies across marketing and revenue operations.
