    Transforming Investment Management and Client Relationships with HubSpot

    Situation

    Lakehouse Capital, a boutique investment management firm, manages two primary investment funds: the Global Growth Fund and the Small Companies Fund. Committed to alignment, trust, and delivering strong long-term returns, Lakehouse Capital sought a unified operational platform to support its complex investment management structure and personalised client communication.

    The Problem

    Lakehouse Capital faced several critical operational challenges:
    Fragmented Systems and Data Silos

    Investor data was scattered across Excel, Zendesk, Mailchimp, and Apex, obstructing a comprehensive view of client relationships and interactions.

    Complex Investor Structures
