Funnel, lifecycle, and scoring

A CRM only helps if it reflects how your business actually sells. We map your funnel from lead capture through MQL, SQL, pipeline stages, and closed won, then set up lifecycle stages, lead scoring, and routing rules that remove manual work. This includes aligning definitions between marketing and sales, building SLAs, and creating automation for follow-ups based on behaviour like form fills, demo attendance, or content engagement. The goal is fewer leads falling through cracks and faster response times that lift conversion.

Lifecycle stages and handoffs

Define MQL, SQL, opportunity stages, and handoff triggers, so ownership is clear and leads move through the funnel without delays or confusion.

Lead scoring and qualification rules

Combine behavioural and firmographic scoring to prioritise high intent leads, improving sales focus and reducing time wasted on poor fit enquiries.

Routing, territories, and SLAs

Implement round robin or territory-based routing with response time SLAs, ensuring every lead is assigned quickly and follow-up is consistent.

CRM that actually gets used

Most CRM projects fail because they prioritise configuration over adoption. We start with the workflows your teams run daily, then design the minimum structure needed for accurate tracking and consistent follow-up. That means clear stages, clean fields, automation that removes admin, and dashboards that answer real questions. When the CRM is easy to use and reporting is trustworthy, teams update it naturally, forecasting improves, and marketing can optimise against pipeline rather than guesswork.
  • Workflows designed for adoption
  • Clean pipeline and forecasting
  • Less admin, faster follow-up

Automation and journey orchestration

We set up CRM automation so your team can run consistent follow-up across email, SMS, and other channels without relying on spreadsheets and memory. That includes nurture sequences, deal stage automations, task creation, reminders, and re-engagement for stalled opportunities. We also build segmentation that supports personalisation, suppression lists, and clean audience sync to ad platforms. Done well, CRM automation reduces leakage, improves pipeline hygiene, and creates repeatable processes that are easy to scale as volume grows.

Nurture and re-engagement flows

Build sequences based on lifecycle stage and behaviour, keeping prospects warm and bringing back dormant leads with relevant offers and proof.

Sales workflows and task automation

Automate reminders, task queues, and stage movements so reps spend less time on admin and more time on high quality conversations.

Audience sync and suppression

Sync segmented lists to paid channels and suppress converted users, improving efficiency and keeping messaging consistent across the funnel.

Attribution, reporting, and data

CRM value comes from visibility. We implement tracking and reporting so you can see what sources create pipeline, what converts, and where the funnel leaks. This includes UTM standards, campaign attribution, and closed-loop reporting that connects marketing activity to revenue. Where needed, we integrate tools like GA4, server-side tracking, data warehouses, and workflow automation so data stays consistent across systems. You get a real time dashboard view that supports budget decisions and forecasting, not just activity reporting.

Closed-loop revenue attribution

Connect lead source and campaigns to opportunities and revenue, so you can judge channels on pipeline and cash outcomes, not just leads.

Data hygiene and enrichment

Clean duplicates, standardise fields, and enrich records where appropriate, improving segmentation, routing accuracy, and forecasting reliability.

Dashboards and forecasting views

Build dashboards for pipeline coverage, stage conversion, and deal velocity, helping leadership spot bottlenecks early and plan capacity confidently.

RevOps speed without hiring

Building a strong CRM function usually requires marketing ops, sales ops, data, and automation skills. Hiring those roles takes time and can leave gaps that slow delivery. Growthcurve gives you a complete marketing department in one package, with operators who integrate as internal staff. You can scale resources up or down as priorities change, and you are not locked into long-term contracts because the engagement is monthly rolling.

SEO that compounds, not a checklist

Organic growth is a mix of technical hygiene, content that earns clicks, and authority building that is genuinely deserved. We treat SEO as a product, with a backlog and a cadence, rather than a one-off project. Technical work covers crawlability, site architecture, Core Web Vitals, schema markup and index management. On-page work is driven by search intent and the real questions buyers ask at each stage. Off-page focuses on link earning through useful assets, partnerships and digital PR rather than spam. For example, for a B2B brand we might build a set of comparison pages for demand capture, a small research piece to earn links, and a library of problem-led articles that support sales calls. The outcome is more qualified traffic, better brand credibility, and lower dependency on paid media over time.

Aligned incentives and visibility

CRM work often gets slowed down by unclear ownership and poor reporting. We run evidence-led sprints with a prioritised backlog, clear delivery, and transparency on what changed and why. You get a real time dashboard view of key metrics like lead response time, pipeline conversion, and stage velocity. Supported by proprietary AI marketing tools, we speed up analysis, segmentation, and operational decisions, helping teams break through growth ceilings caused by data and process friction.

What is a CRM and why does it matter?
A CRM is the system that stores customer and lead data and helps teams manage follow-up, pipeline, and reporting. It matters because it is the bridge between marketing activity and revenue outcomes. When CRM data is clean and workflows are consistent, you can see which channels create pipeline, route leads quickly, forecast reliably, and improve conversion rates. When it is messy, teams lose leads, reports are untrustworthy, and growth decisions become guesswork.
How do you define lifecycle stages like MQL and SQL?
We define lifecycle stages based on how your business actually qualifies and sells. Marketing and sales agree on what qualifies as a lead, what makes someone marketing qualified, and what triggers a sales handoff. We then implement those definitions in the CRM using clear criteria, automation, and reporting. This makes ownership unambiguous, improves response times, and reduces disputes about lead quality. The result is a smoother funnel and better conversion from lead to opportunity.
What is lead scoring and how should it work?
Lead scoring prioritises leads based on signals that correlate with buying intent and fit. We typically combine behavioural signals, such as page visits, email clicks, and webinar attendance, with firmographic or demographic fit. The goal is practical: help sales focus on the best leads first and trigger the right follow-up automatically. We validate scoring against outcomes like SQL rate and win rate, then refine it over time as you learn which behaviours predict pipeline and revenue.
How do you stop leads falling through the cracks?
Leads get lost when routing is unclear, follow-up is manual, or ownership changes without visibility. We fix this with routing rules, automated task creation, and response time SLAs that make the next step unavoidable. We also set up dashboards and alerts for unworked leads, stalled opportunities, and stage ageing. The goal is to turn follow-up into a repeatable system. This improves speed-to-lead and conversion without hiring extra headcount.
Can a CRM help with marketing attribution and reporting?
Yes, if attribution is designed properly. We implement UTM standards, campaign mapping, and closed-loop reporting so you can connect lead source and campaign data to pipeline and revenue. We also account for the fact that attribution is imperfect. In many cases, multi-touch views and blended reporting provide better decision inputs than relying on a single last-click model. The aim is to understand what is driving growth and allocate budget with confidence.
What CRM integrations are most important to set up?
The most important integrations are the ones that affect data quality and speed. That usually includes form and lead capture, email and calendar, analytics, ads platforms, and your product or billing system where relevant. We prioritise integrations that reduce manual entry and improve reporting consistency. If you use a data warehouse or reverse ETL, we can also align schemas and syncing so your CRM stays a reliable source of truth for teams and dashboards.
How do you improve CRM data hygiene over time?
Data hygiene improves when the system makes good behaviour easy. We reduce required fields, standardise picklists, and automate enrichment where it adds value. We also implement deduplication rules and periodic clean-up routines. Most importantly, we design workflows so the CRM is updated as a by-product of doing the work, not an extra admin step. That improves adoption and keeps reporting accurate. Clean data makes segmentation, routing, and forecasting far more reliable.
How do you make sure the CRM gets adopted?
Adoption comes from usability and trust. We build a CRM that matches real workflows, removes unnecessary fields, and uses automation to cut admin. Teams will not adopt a system that slows them down. We also ensure reporting is accurate, because when dashboards are trusted, leaders use them and teams keep data updated. Training is focused on the smallest set of actions users must take daily, supported by simple rules and checklists that keep consistency high.
What happens in the first month of CRM work?
We start with a rapid audit of your current CRM setup, funnel definitions, and reporting gaps. Then we agree the key outcomes, such as improved lead routing, clearer lifecycle stages, or better attribution, and build a prioritised backlog. In the first month we implement the highest impact fixes and launch a weekly operating cadence. You get visibility through a real time dashboard.

Lifecycle marketing that increases LTV

If you only optimise acquisition, you end up paying more for the same customers. We build lifecycle systems that raise retention and expansion, using email, SMS where relevant, and CRM workflows that feel personal without being creepy. We set up segmentation based on behaviour and value, then design flows for onboarding, activation, replenishment, win-back and referral. In practice that can include RFM modelling for ecommerce, lead scoring for B2B, or product usage triggers for SaaS. We also help you capture first-party and zero-party data with preference centres and progressive profiling, so targeting stays resilient as privacy changes. When we ran a lifecycle audit for one team, we found revenue sitting in overlooked moments, like post-purchase education and renewal risk signals. The outcome is a healthier blended CAC and a marketing engine that keeps paying you back.

Measurement you can trust and use

Attribution arguments waste time and block good decisions. We set measurement up so it is good enough to guide spend, creative and roadmap choices, and we are honest about what is knowable. Tracking work can include GA4 hygiene, conversion event design, server-side tracking where appropriate, and consistent UTMs. Reporting lives in a real-time dashboard, with views that match how you run the business, such as channel performance, funnel conversion, cohort retention and creative learnings. We also use incrementality thinking where it matters, like geo holdouts or controlled tests for bigger budget shifts. For example, if brand search rises after a video push, we look at the whole picture rather than declaring victory based on last click. The outcome is faster iteration and fewer surprises in board meetings.

Operating rhythm, SLAs and ways of working

Good marketing is mostly good operations. We set a working rhythm that keeps delivery moving and prevents strategy decks from becoming a comfort blanket. You get a named lead, specialist channel owners, and access to top-tier US and UK talent, scaled up or down based on your needs. We agree response times, approval flows and who owns what across creative, landing pages, tracking and budget changes. Campaign planning happens in short cycles, with clear priorities and a shared backlog, so work does not disappear into a black box. We also help your internal stakeholders, like product, sales and finance, stay aligned with what marketing is doing and why. The outcome is a calm, consistent cadence, less context switching, and a team that behaves like your internal staff while staying on a monthly rolling basis.
