Client Profile

Climatics is a rapidly expanding family of HVAC and plumbing service brands in the Great Lakes region.

Case Study Highlights

For companies with an acquisition-based growth strategy, having a repeatable, scalable marketing system is essential.

Such was the case for Climatics. By partnering with Simple Machines, Climatics built a scalable marketing infrastructure on HubSpot, enabling a streamlined onboarding process for newly acquired brands.

The result? Faster speed to market and shorter time to value.

Key deliverables included:

  • HubSpot implementation

  • HubSpot-Salesforce integration

  • Website design and development

  • Google Ads management

The Challenge

After acquiring GHC Mechanical and Jensen’s Plumbing & Heating, Climatics had a solid brand strategy in place. However, they needed to:

  • Modernize the websites for both brands, aligning their design and messaging with Climatics’ positioning.

  • Establish a centralized marketing hub to support ongoing growth.

  • Integrate with Salesforce, ensuring marketing and sales teams had seamless access to the right data.

With more acquisitions on the horizon, Climatics required a repeatable framework for website development, marketing automation and demand generation.

The Solution

  • Simple Machines designed and developed modernized WordPress websites for GHC and Jensen’s, including reusable templates to streamline future website launches.

  • We onboarded HubSpot Marketing Pro, equipping Climatics with robust automation, reporting and lead nurturing. This included establishing a seamless HubSpot-Salesforce integration, allowing bidirectional data flow for efficient marketing and sales alignment.

  • To drive more demand for GHC and Jensen’s, we optimized the websites for search and launched Google Ads campaigns, increasing brand visibility and lead flow.
