Lifecycle Workflow Rebuild and Handoff (10-14 days)
A fixed-scope engagement that rebuilds a client's multi-channel lifecycle workflows on the chosen platform, wires CRM and attribution integrity, and hands over documented journeys with a measured operating baseline. Built for agencies that want deployment revenue plus a defined optimization retainer instead of open-ended platform babysitting. Time: 10-14 days.

Lifecycle Workflow Rebuild and Handoff (10-14 days)
A fixed-scope engagement that rebuilds a client's multi-channel lifecycle workflows on the chosen platform, wires CRM and attribution integrity, and hands over documented journeys with a measured operating baseline. Built for agencies that want deployment revenue plus a defined optimization retainer instead of open-ended platform babysitting.
- Client grants admin access to the chosen platform, the CRM, and the analytics property before day one. A named client-side owner is available for two 45-minute review sessions per week. Historical campaign data covering at least 90 days is exportable. The agency has written sign-off on which lifecycle stages are in scope and which are explicitly excluded.
- 1.Inventory every live workflow, form, and list in the current stack
- 2.Log which journeys fire on behavior versus schedule versus manual import
- 3.Flag duplicate entry points and orphaned automations
- 1.Map the lead lifecycle from first touch to closed-won against the CRM stages
- 2.Document where scoring, routing, and sales handoff currently break
- 3.Confirm the exception path for unsubscribes, bounces, and duplicate contacts
- 1.Capture the baseline: list size, 90-day conversion rates, and average time-to-first-response
- 2.Pull attribution settings and note any channel with no source tracking
- 3.Record current cost per lead by channel for the comparison report
- 1.Rebuild the core nurture sequence with branch logic for engaged and dormant contacts
- 2.Configure behavioral triggers for pricing page visits and demo requests
- 3.Set suppression rules so active opportunities stop receiving acquisition messaging
- 1.Wire the CRM sync in both directions and test field-level mapping
- 2.Add scoring thresholds that promote or demote contacts automatically
- 3.Build the sales handoff notification with the context a rep needs to open the call
- 1.Extend the workflow to the second channel the client already pays for
- 2.Test message timing against quiet hours and local consent rules
- 3.Verify opt-out language and preference centers on every send path
- 1.Run a full end-to-end test with seeded contacts through every branch
- 2.Document each failure mode found and the fix applied
- 3.Confirm the rollback path if a workflow misfires after launch
- 1.Write the workflow map with trigger, condition, and exit criteria for each journey
- 2.Record the integration list with owner, credentials location, and renewal date
- 3.Draft the maintenance schedule covering audits, list hygiene, and approval gates
- 1.Train the client team on editing workflows without breaking branch logic
- 2.Hand over the exception-handling runbook and escalation contacts
- 3.Walk through the reporting dashboard and what each metric drives
- 1.Launch with monitoring on for the first 72 hours
- 2.Compare day-one results against the baseline captured on day three
- 3.Deliver the handoff pack and propose the optimization retainer scope
Pricing follows the actual count of journeys, integrations, approval gates, and maintenance obligations rather than a flat platform fee, so scope creep on a fifth channel or a second CRM becomes a change order instead of unpaid work. The baseline captured before launch gives the agency a defensible number to report at 60 and 90 days, which is what converts a one-time rebuild into a retained optimization contract. Agencies that document the handoff also reduce the support load that usually eats the margin on lifecycle work.
- Workflow map covering every journey with trigger, branch, and exit criteria
- Integration and credentials register with owners and renewal dates
- Baseline versus post-launch performance report at 30 days
- Exception-handling runbook and maintenance schedule
- Client training recording plus editable workflow templates
Every in-scope journey runs end to end in production with CRM sync verified, the baseline and post-launch metrics are documented in a signed report, and the client team has completed training and accepted the handoff pack.
