How these tools work together

HubSpot CRM manages client relationships, tracks deals in your pipeline, and stores all client communication. Asana runs every campaign as a project — timelines, deliverables, and internal reviews. Mailchimp runs client email campaigns with analytics you can report back on. FreshBooks tracks time, creates client-facing reports, and handles invoicing. This combination handles sales, delivery, and billing without bloated agency project management software.
