Moving to HubSpot pushed us to take a hard, honest look at how we work, which was harder than moving the data. We're better for it. Now we have a system that will grow with us, and our team can put more of its energy where it belongs: serving people and our mission of bringing hope in hard places.
Jenn Petersen, President & CEO

With the Fundraise Up integration, our Annual Des Moines Iowa Radiothon exceeded $400k in donations, transforming it into a successful hybrid giving experience.

What Lake One built on top of the migration, the gift processing workflows, the GL export, the receipt automation, these aren’t workarounds. They’re purpose-built solutions that fit how we actually operate and what we need as a multi-program and multi-country non-profit.

What to expect

How this actually goes.

Three moves, in order, each important for success.

  1. About 3 weeks

    See what you have

    Data in four places and nobody trusts the numbers. We start there, quietly, and hand you a straight read on what is working.

  2. 8+ weeks

    Build it around your people

    HubSpot set up the way your team already works, then trained hands on, in your language, with your own data in front of you.

  3. Ongoing

    Stay in your corner

    Someone who knows your setup, on call all year. From small questions to ongoing strategy and system optimization.

Who this is for

When the work matters, the tools should keep up.

Nonprofits, foundations, associations, and the campanies that behaves like one.

Got a tangle? We like tangles.

  • You inherited a HubSpot portal nobody set up with purpose

    We fix that

  • Your donor data lives in four different places

    We fix that

  • Your team stopped opening the CRM months ago

    We fix that

  • The board wants a number you can't confidently give them

    We fix that

Twelve years of this. We have seen your situation, and it's not as bad as it feels.
