Our Work

From Disconnected Systems to a Scalable HubSpot Marketing Foundation for ECCO Safety Group

ECCO-LOGO_1000x315

Overview

ECCO Safety Group (ESG) is a global leader in emergency lighting, audible warning systems, and safety solutions for commercial, industrial, and emergency vehicles. Their portfolio includes multiple brands, including ECCO and Code 3, which serve distinct audiences and product lines across the safety vehicle market.

Prior to working with Evenbound, ESG relied primarily on Constant Contact for email marketing and lacked a centralized marketing platform. This made it difficult to scale, report accurately, or support multiple brands independently.

Evenbound partnered with ESG to implement HubSpot Marketing Hub Enterprise from the ground up—creating a scalable, brand-aware marketing foundation designed to support automation, reporting, and long-term growth.

The Challenge

Without an existing HubSpot instance, ESG’s marketing efforts were constrained by disconnected tools and limited visibility across brands.

Key challenges included:

No centralized marketing automation platform beyond the basic Constant Contact email database

Disconnected data across Constant Contact and ERP (Infor), limiting performance visibility across customer engagement and campaign performance

ECCO and Code 3 contacts and communications were managed together without brand separation

No standardized segmentation, dashboards, or automation framework

Manual list management increased compliance risk and reduced scalability

Brand overlap created risks around inconsistent customer experiences and reporting inaccuracies

Existing systems made it difficult to prepare for future automation, attribution, and AI-driven personalization initiatives.

Together, these challenges limited ESG’s ability to scale marketing efforts, gain reliable insight across brands, or prepare for more advanced automation in the future.

The Approach

A Clean, Scalable HubSpot Marketing Foundation

Evenbound implemented a structured HubSpot Marketing Hub Enterprise environment designed to scale with ESG’s global, multi-brand organization.

Key initiatives included:

Migrating and structuring 100,000+ contacts from Constant Contact and ERP systems while preserving segmentation, associations, and compliance preferences

Separating ECCO and Code 3 using HubSpot Brands to support distinct communications and reporting, and support long-term operational separation without requiring multiple portals

Building a scalable CRM structure with custom properties and parent–child company relationships for multi-location visibility

Enabling the marketing team through hands-on training and supporting documentation to support long-term internal ownership

Built standardized lifecycle stage management and segmentation logic to improve reporting consistency across brands

Established data normalization and property governance standards to improve long-term data quality and operational scalability

Created reusable automation and reporting frameworks to accelerate future campaign deployment

The Results

The implementation replaced fragmented tools with a stable, scalable HubSpot environment that ESG can confidently build on as marketing maturity increases.

Key results included:

A centralized marketing infrastructure capable of supporting enterprise-scale growth initiatives

Clear account and location-level visibility through structured company hierarchies and custom properties

Centralized dashboards providing reliable, brand-specific insight into marketing performance

Preserved unsubscribe status and compliance data throughout migration

A marketing team confident using HubSpot day to day without reliance on disconnected tools, manual workarounds, and tribal knowledge

Enabled ESG’s internal team to confidently manage campaigns, reporting, and segmentation independently

Leadership now has visibility into brand-specific engagement and marketing performance that was previously unavailable

The implementation positioned ESG to mature from one-off, manual email marketing into data- and automation-driven lifecycle marketing

Together, these outcomes established a reliable HubSpot Marketing Hub Enterprise foundation built to support future automation, deeper reporting, and scalable growth across ESG’s global organization.

Built for Future AI & Automation Initiatives

Beyond solving immediate operational challenges, the implementation established a clean, scalable data foundation designed to support ESG’s future AI and automation goals.

By centralizing customer and company data within HubSpot, standardizing property structures, preserving compliance history, and implementing clear brand segmentation, Evenbound helped ESG create the data integrity required for advanced automation and AI-driven marketing initiatives.

The new HubSpot environment positions ESG to explore:

  • AI-assisted campaign creation and content generation
  • Predictive lead engagement and lifecycle automation
  • Advanced segmentation and personalization
  • Cross-brand reporting and attribution
  • Scalable customer journey orchestration

As a phase 2, ESG can evaluate and expand adoption of HubSpot’s native AI-powered tools, including:

  • Breeze AI for content generation and workflow assistance
  • AI-powered reporting and campaign insights
  • Advanced marketing attribution reporting
  • CRM enrichment and data quality tooling
  • Conversational marketing and chatbot capabilities
  • Future integration opportunities across HubSpot’s connected customer platform

With a unified CRM and scalable governance model now in place, ESG is positioned to continue evolving its marketing operations with confidence as HubSpot’s AI capabilities expand.
