Treating sales as a transformational science, you will experience more positive growth than anticipated even exponential. Put slow sales to rest...
Not long ago I heard someone say, "If you think it's expensive to hire a professional, just wait until you hire an amateur."
My previous clients agree with that statement: "Steve was an amazing help in helping us get our outbound sales setup and tested. An extremely talented and experienced sales professional that was a pleasure to work with that we will work with again on other projects.
If ROI is important and you have an immediate need let's collaborate on solutions for best results.
If you're not sure if your BD/Sales program will succeed, put me on the project. I can typically give you a full viability answer in less than 1 week that may save you many headaches and thousands of wasted dollars.
Every project you hire me for deserves a winning strategy.
I live to create win-win-win scenarios because it brings you
not just new repeat clients but many champion advocates.
I am:
* Friendly and amiable.
* Focused and determined.
* Interested and interesting.
* Highly resilient and persistent.
People tell me, again and again, I am a breath of fresh air.

I'm a HubSpot Expert and Developer with 6+ years across digital marketing, CRM, and revenue operations. Before going independent, I was Director of Marketing for a 100+ location home service franchise, where I owned CRM, paid acquisition, and sales operations. That background means I bring strategic business context to every implementation, not just technical execution. Top Rated Plus on Upwork with 100% Job Success across 59 contracts and 2,000+ billable hours.
I work across the full HubSpot stack: Sales Hub, Marketing Hub, Operations Hub, Service Hub, and CMS Hub. My specialty is the development-heavy side of HubSpot work that most freelancers can't deliver. That includes custom-coded workflow actions, the workflow API, custom objects, custom behavioral events, private apps, OAuth flows, and bidirectional integrations between HubSpot and external systems.
🔧 HubSpot Implementation and Architecture
Net-new HubSpot CRM setups, Salesforce to HubSpot migrations, data model and information architecture design, custom object structures, pipeline design, lifecycle stages, lead scoring, and deal stage automation.
🔌 Integrations and Development
Custom integrations between HubSpot and external systems via the HubSpot API, the workflow API (custom-coded actions), webhook listeners, Cloudflare Workers, and Operations Hub data syncs. Recent work includes the HubSpot Communications API for inbound SMS logging and custom connectors for proprietary platforms.
📈 Marketing Automation and RevOps
Marketing Hub automations, email and SMS sequences, omnichannel nurture flows, smart content, multi-touch attribution reporting, executive dashboards for sales, marketing, and ops teams, and ongoing revenue operations consulting for B2B and B2C teams.
🧹 Data Migration and Cleanup
Migrations from Salesforce, Constant Contact, MongoDB, ActiveCampaign, spreadsheets, and other legacy systems into clean HubSpot environments. Includes deduplication, association cleanup, custom field mapping, and historical data preservation.
🎯 Strategic Business Context
Director of Marketing background at a 100+ location home service franchise group, owning CRM, paid acquisition, and sales operations across the network. I work shoulder-to-shoulder with founders, CEOs, and revenue leaders to align HubSpot to actual business outcomes. I help define what to measure, how pipelines should map to revenue, and where automation will move the needle vs. where it's a distraction. Particularly strong on multi-location, franchise, and field service business models where data architecture, territory routing, and franchisee/franchisor permission layers get complex fast.
🏆 Past clients I've worked with include:
Buffalo Wild Wings: Top American Restaurant and Sports Bar Franchise
1-800 PetMeds: Leading Public Online Pet Pharmacy
America's Test Kitchen: PBS Network TV Show
I2C: Leading Global Payment Processor
Essano: #1 Skin Care Brand in New Zealand and Australia
That 1 Painter: Fastest Growing Home Service Painting Franchise
📌 Recent and ongoing HubSpot consulting work spans B2B SaaS, legal services, aesthetic medical clinics, modular construction, scientific instrumentation, and home service franchises. Case studies available on request from The Franchise Navigator, SHWASH, and Resibrands.
If you need a HubSpot expert who understands the business side AND can architect the data model, build the integrations, and run the implementation end to end, send a message and we'll set up a call to walk through your portal, your tech stack, and what needs to be built first.

Agencies and growing brands: It’s tough trying to focus on scaling your agency when just maintaining your current workload is a problem.
Your agency may be experiencing messaging bottlenecks that are causing:
Campaigns to stall.
Creative testing to slow down.
Email sequences to not get finished.
Launches to get delayed because the copy isn’t ready.
Rushed, generic copy that doesn’t capture the client’s brand voice and doesn’t speak to the heart of their customer.
Which, in turn, causes:
Clients to look elsewhere for fulfillment,
And you to lose money
Making it impossible for you to scale your business or agency.
I want to help you get past these messaging bottlenecks and position your agency to function smoothly and scale up, if that’s your plan.
I began focusing on helping businesses with copywriting and Facebook ads after noticing that great offers were being held back by weak messaging and slow execution.
And I knew that with their business expertise
And my creative support, focused on increasing their leads and conversion
We could partner and make beautiful music together.
Today, I focus on helping agencies write conversion copy built for speed, testing, and scale.
That includes Meta/Facebook ad copy, Email ad copy, Creative testing variations, and Landing pages.
One of my clients increased monthly Facebook ad lead generation by 5x their usual amount after improving campaign messaging and creative strategy.
I work best with:
-Marketing agencies
-Ecommerce brands
-B2B companies
-Coaches and online businesses with established offers
And especially teams that need:
-Faster campaign execution-more creative volume-stronger conversion messaging-dependable turnaround times
My background includes:
-Bachelor’s degree in Marketing-Training and experience as a copywriter-Training and experience as a copyeditor-Training and experience as a Facebook ads manager
My experience optimizing Facebook/Meta ads has given me a strong understanding of campaign structure, audience psychology, creative testing, and conversion-focused messaging.
If your team needs conversion-focused copy without adding another full-time hire, send me a message or connect with me here on LinkedIn.

Award-winning Marketing Director turned Freelancer. Founder of Trxn Agency. 10+ years leading growth for SaaS and B2B brands. Now bringing that expertise to start ups and founder-led teams. Branding, funnels, automation, and campaigns built to convert and scale.
MILLION-DOLLAR MARKETING FOR MODEST BUDGETS
You don’t need more tactics. You need a playbook that wins.
I’ve led growth strategy, go-to-market planning, and marketing operations for SaaS companies, B2B service providers, and founder-led teams—ranging from early-stage startups to multi-million dollar enterprises.
My work spans brand development, funnel strategy, channel prioritization, and performance management. I’ve built the systems behind campaigns that have generated over $50M in ARR, helped brands secure leadership positions in their markets, and positioned high-growth companies to engineer successful exits.
I approach this work as both a strategist and an operator, supported by a playbook that evolves with the industry. I stay at the forefront of the marketing landscape—leveraging advances in AI-driven solutions, emerging tools, and shifts in consumer behavior to ensure the strategies I deliver are current, effective, and built for what’s working now—not what worked five years ago.
I am a strong fit for growth-stage teams looking to apply enterprise-level strategy with hands-on execution and build a marketing foundation designed for sustainable growth. In most cases, I provide both fractional leadership and direct implementation.
How I Help:
✅ Clarify the offer. Sharpen the message.
✅ Prioritize channels and architect funnels that convert.
✅ Build CRM systems and automations that scale with you.
✅ Lead with strategy. Execute with precision.
Key Outcomes I Deliver:
• Funnels and campaigns that drive qualified leads (not just traffic)
• CRM and marketing ops that keep up as you grow (HubSpot Certified)
• Go-to-market plans with clear priorities and measurable next steps
• Hands-on leadership without the overhead of a full-time CMO
Why Clients Hire Me:
⚡ Full-stack approach: Strategy -> execution. I don’t hand off a plan and disappear.
⚡ Data-driven decisions: Focused on what works, fast to cut what doesn’t.
⚡ Seasoned, not scrappy: 10+ years of agency and in-house leadership
⚡ Award-winning work: Led campaigns recognized by AAF and featured in Forbes.
What Clients Say:
“I have more clarity than I’ve had in months.”
"Colton is a real marketing professional with solid understanding of content marketing and lead generation tactics...He's played a large role in the success of our marketing for several years."
"Colton exceeded all expectations as a B2B Marketing Specialist for our software company...He's an invaluable asset to any team looking to elevate their B2B marketing. Highly recommended."
“I highly recommend hiring Colton if you are seeking to flesh out your brand or focus your strategy.”
