Very knowledgeable and talented team, who walked us through the complete set up of HubSpot from start to finish, incorporating our unique needs into the mix. Very detailed and patient training, and always made to feel like nothing was too much to ask for. Scott has been a pleasure to work with and we're very happy with the results.Nathan ShearmanDirector of Services -
I recently had the pleasure of working with Jack for the complete setup and configuration of our HubSpot account, and the experience was truly outstanding. Jack was knowledgeable and demonstrated a clear expertise in the platform's capabilities. I have gone from not knowing what HubSpot is to being able to use it to make my business more profitable.Angus BlackFounder -
HubSpot had initially been adopted by the marketing team and after 18months of trying to DIY the sales end of the CRM, it became very clear we needed help. Our business has a very complex and layered sales process and when conveying this to Ash during our initial meeting, I was incredibly impressed at the range of solutions which were being discussed and within a short timescale. For the actual project build, we worked with Scott who was so easy to work with and rose to every challenge and wish list item we sent his way.Alex KitchingBusiness Development Manager

While we are still learning about the opportunities HubSpot can unlock, Ash and Graham at Forbidden have been invaluable over the last 12 months. We have held workshops, and Graham, in particular, has become an extension of our team. Ash and Graham strike a great balance between blue-sky thinking and tactical, on-the-ground execution, which they manage seamlessly. Nothing is too much trouble for them.Sadie CooperCOO
