Simplified tech, conversions that grow

Your tech stack should support you, not slow you down. We design smart systems and user-friendly websites so your team moves faster, without the stress of clunky tools or leaky funnels.

Skip the line

We get it. This isn’t easy.

You didn’t start this business to manage disconnected tools.

But as you grow, things get messy, websites become clunky, processes break, and new opportunities fall through the cracks. That’s where we come in.

Minds & Makers helps purpose-driven teams streamline their digital experience, so every touchpoint works together to attract, convert, and serve the people you care about most.

Here’s how we fix it

Tech that actually works together

We connect your CRM, website, booking system, email platform, and more. So your team spends less time fixing things and more time growing the business.

Marketing that runs like a machine

From smart landing pages to automated follow-ups, we help you attract, engage, and convert leads without burning out your team.

Insights that drive action

Our dashboards give you a clear view of your entire funnel, what’s working, what’s not, and where to focus next.

Custom platforms built to scale

Need more than off-the-shelf tools? We design and build web apps, e-commerce flows, and integrations that fit your unique business and grow with you.

Why this feels so hard and is costing you opportunities

Don’t worry, you’re not unique. We hear it all the time...

"Our website is confusing, and people drop off before taking action."

"We’re constantly jumping between tools just to keep things running."

“We’re spending on marketing, but can’t tell what’s working.”

“It feels like we’re losing leads before we even get a chance to talk to them.”

Our Process

Here’s how we help you get back on track

We follow a proven, hands-on process to uncover what’s holding you back, bring clarity to the chaos, and deliver fast, measurable improvements.

Portfolio Selection

Real projects. Proven results.

From fixing leaky funnels to building custom platforms, we deliver results that matter. Here’s how we’ve partnered with clients to solve complex challenges and achieve growth.

Custom Enrollment & Onboarding web app

From manual processes to scalable enrollment

UX/UI Design
API Integration
Process Automation
CRM Integration

MEA’s hybrid education-retreat model faced challenges with outdated, manual processes that overwhelmed their team and guests. We created a custom web app to simplify enrollment, automate payments, and streamline onboarding. By integrating their property management system (MEWS) with HubSpot CRM, we provided real-time data synchronization and reduced the need for manual updates.

The impact
  • +150% Enrollment Growth: Monthly enrollments surged from 60 to 150 without increasing team size.
  • -80% Fewer Support Requests: Proactive integrations and streamlined workflows drastically reduced operational hurdles.
  • Empowered Team: Training and SOPs equipped MEA’s team to manage the system independently.This scalable solution improved guest satisfaction and gave MEA the foundation to handle future growth effortlessly.

CMS Development
Marketing Automation

Collaborating with What's Good, a marketing and systems design studio, Minds & Makers developed a system to manage Rivet School’s info sessions for referral partners. We created dynamic Webflow landing pages synced with Calendly for automated event updates and connected the system to Salesforce for seamless lead tracking and follow-ups.

The impact
  • 20 info sessions and 110 registrants in 4 months.
  • Estimated 17.5% conversion to applications based on historical trends.
  • Scalable solution enabling the small Partnerships Team to manage sessions effortlessly while focusing on student engagement.

Collaborating with What's Good Studio, a marketing and systems design studio, Minds & Makers built a custom PostHog dashboard for Future Forward Connecticut.

The impact
  • Clear Metrics: Provided visibility into every stage of the funnel.
  • Actionable Priorities: Highlighted website improvements to reduce user hesitation.

Streamlined Admissions with Custom HubSpot Integration

Doubling applications and reducing workload

UX/UI Design
Automation Workflows
UX Optimization
Custom Pipelines

MEA’s manual admissions process relied on spreadsheets and emails, leading to inefficiencies, missed follow-ups, and delayed payments. We implemented HubSpot pipelines and automation workflows to streamline applications, automate payment requests, and simplify onboarding. A custom frontend allowed applicants to submit forms directly into the system, while automated emails reduced repetitive tasks for the Admissions team.

The impact
  • 2x Applications: Applications doubled in the first year.
  • 1 FTE Workload Saved: Automation reduced the need for a full Admissions team member.
  • 7x Enrollment Growth: Since implementation, MEA scaled enrollments from 190 to nearly 1,500 per year.
