Before you buy HubSpot, talk to us first.
Every HubSpot Professional and Enterprise purchase comes with a required one-time onboarding fee: $1,500 for Sales Hub Professional, $3,000 for Marketing Hub Professional, and up to $7,000 for Marketing Hub Enterprise. That fee applies when HubSpot does your onboarding.
When you onboard through a certified HubSpot Solutions Partner like Analytics That Profit, HubSpot's onboarding fee doesn't apply. Instead, we handle your setup, migration and training ourselves. We start with an audit and build everything around your team's real workflows, not a generic checklist.

You Didn't Buy HubSpot to Have Your Team Avoid It
Nobody showed them how to use it. So half the features sit untouched, three people track deals in a spreadsheet, and the data is too messy to trust in a report.
HubSpot Academy teaches HubSpot in general. It doesn't teach your pipeline, your lifecycle stages, or the four things your ops manager actually does every Monday.
That's the gap we close.
HubSpot Services
HubSpot onboarding
A new portal set up the right way from day one: users, security, tracking, pipelines, lifecycle stages, forms, and workflows configured for how your business actually sells.
CRM migration and portal rescue
Moving from spreadsheets, Salesforce or another CRM, or cleaning up a portal someone else set up and abandoned. We import, dedupe, and structure your data so you can report on it honestly.
Custom training videos
Short, role-specific tutorials recorded inside your portal, using your deals, your properties, and your process. Sales gets sales training. Marketing gets marketing training. No irrelevant features.
A training library that outlives the kickoff
Everything lives in your own HubSpot dashboard, so a new hire in month nine gets the same onboarding your team got on day one.
Reporting people trust
Dashboards tied to calls, booked appointments, qualified leads, and closed revenue, not impressions.
Every engagement ends with your team able to do the work without us.
That's the point.

Customized HubSpot Training Built Around Your Business
Most HubSpot training follows a fixed curriculum. Ours starts with a portal audit.
Before we build a single session, we look at how your team actually uses HubSpot today: which workflows are active and which are abandoned, where reporting is disconnected from your real KPIs, and which features you're paying for but not using.
You could spend days getting certified yourself and then training your team. Or we can do it, and you can spend that time running your business.
How it works
- Portal audit. We compare what you're paying for with what you're using.
- Gap analysis. We rank the issues most affecting your team's results.
- Curriculum built from your workflows. We train the tasks your team does every week, not the feature list.
- Hands-on practice in your live portal. Real data, real workflows, and real reports, not a demo account.
- Recorded and documented. Custom videos plus written SOPs, housed in your portal.
- Reinforcement. We review adoption and performance and adjust as your process changes.
Training Built for Each Role
Training is built for the people working inside HubSpot every day, not just the people who bought it.
- Sales teams: working deals, pipelines, sequences, tasks, meeting links, and pipeline reporting in HubSpot CRM.
- Marketing teams: workflows and automation, email campaigns, lead scoring, lead nurturing, landing pages, CTAs and campaign reporting.
- Service teams: tickets, help desk automation and customer reporting in Service Hub.
- Owners and managers: dashboards and reports that show what's happening in sales and marketing without exporting to a spreadsheet.
Each team leaves with skills tied to its own daily work, not a broad overview that only partly applies.
What Results Can You Expect?
Because training starts with an account audit, we measure results against the specific gaps we find, not general "platform adoption."
Depending on what we uncover, that can mean more of your team using workflows, faster ticket response times in Service Hub, or better email performance and lead conversion in Marketing Hub. We track outcomes with custom HubSpot reports, so you see before-and-after numbers tied to the gaps your training fixed.
Every engagement ends with your team able to do the work without us. That's the point.
Why Work With a Local HubSpot Partner in Cincinnati?
We love HubSpot Academy. It's great if you have the time. But it teaches the platform in the abstract, with demo data and generic scenarios.
As a HubSpot partner serving Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky, we train your team in your live portal with your real numbers. And because we're local, the relationship doesn't end after one session. We're available for follow-up questions, portal check-ins, and ongoing support as your team's needs change.
Analytics That Profit is based in Independence, KY. We were started by a guy with a degree in Chemical Physics, and we're a herd of nerds who happen to be very good at explaining things to people who don't want a lecture. We work with teams across Greater Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, and the rest of the United States.

What HubSpot Clients Say
"We signed up for HubSpot for our sales team but never went through official onboarding and it showed. Our sales team was lacking the basic knowledge of how to use the platform correctly. We hired Phil and within a few weeks we were cranking on the platform. His training library is now in place for new hires to go through and expedite their onboarding process."
Smith, D. · Marketing Services · 26–50 employees · Customer Success Training, HubSpot Onboarding, CRM Implementation
"Phil made things quick and easy! He got me set up into my new HubSpot CRM and customized training videos for me."
Reynolds, T. · Customer Success Training, HubSpot Onboarding, Sales Hub Professional Onboarding, CRM Implementation
"Dr. Phil offered a quick review of our CRM settings, and spotted a missed email setting that had the potential of halting all of our HubSpot outbound sales emails. Dodged a bullet, thanks to him."

How to Choose a HubSpot Partner
Whoever you hire, ask these questions before you sign:
- What's your hands-on experience? Ask for examples from businesses like yours.
- What's your approach? Do they start with an audit, or a standard checklist?
- Do you know HubSpot's tools and processes in depth? Ask which certifications they hold and which Hubs they've implemented.
- What do your reviews say? Read them on the HubSpot partner directory, not just their website.
- What exactly is in scope? A clear scope of work prevents arguments later about budget and what's covered.
