ONBOARDING OS · CRM ONBOARDING IN 5 DAYS

Your CRM should be working by Friday.

Not "in phase two." Hunt and Machine sets up Attio the way a systems engineer would: decisions first, build second, handover in writing. Five business days from access granted, done for you, at a fixed fee.

A blank workspace is a blank workspace.

Attio is the best CRM for teams who think in data, but most companies stall for weeks deciding on objects, attributes, and views, then import a messy spreadsheet on top of it and spend the next quarter cleaning up. Meanwhile the sales team keeps working out of email and nobody trusts the pipeline. The bottleneck is not the tool. It is the hundred small decisions nobody owns. We own them.

PROOF · AN ENGAGEMENT AS IT RAN

A 30-day migration recovery, delivered in one working day.

A statewide professional association with more than 30,000 CRM records needed its legacy data moved to a new platform. A trial migration attempted before the engagement had failed hard: roughly 64,000 import errors, junk and duplicate records flooding the target portal, and a legacy sync still running that kept re-polluting whatever got cleaned. Client and partner names withheld; the numbers are the engagement as it ran.

to a client-approved test batch, against a ~30-day industry norm for this scope
01

Sequence beats effort

First move: disconnect the legacy sync, because no cleanup survives while the source of the mess is still writing. Then clear, then map, then test. Each step made the next one safe.

02

Small verifiable artifacts beat big promises

A clean, field-mapped test batch of real records went to the client the same day, with a plain request: check these against your source data before anything moves at volume.

03

A burned client needs evidence, not reassurance

After a 64,000-error failure, the fastest way to rebuild confidence was to hand them something inspectable within the day. They signed off on records they could check, not a plan they had to trust.

HOW IT WORKS

You confirm. You never design.

Every choice that needs your input arrives as a pre-filled decision sheet with a recommended default already in place. You say "yes" or "change that." Nobody stares at a whiteboard, and nobody sits through a discovery workshop.

STEP 1

Decisions, pre-filled

You get the decisions sheet before the one 60-minute call. Every field has a recommended default, so the call is confirmation, not invention.

STEP 2

Build

Objects, attributes, statuses, and views built to the confirmed sheet. Your import is mapped column by column and test-loaded.

STEP 3

The test batch gate

A small set of real records, every column mapped to its destination field, sent for your sign-off. Nothing moves at volume until you approve what you can inspect.

STEP 4

Import, train, hand over

Full import with dedupe, a training session on your live data, and a written handover doc: what was built, why, and the exact settings. You own the system, not our memory.

THE OFFER

Attio Onboarding in 5 Days.

HubSpot charges $3,000 for onboarding that is guidance only; you still do the building. Done-for-you implementations from partner agencies run $6,000 to $30,000 and take a month or more. This is done for you, on Attio, in five business days, for less than HubSpot charges to tell you what to do.

$2,950

Fixed fee. Fixed scope. Five business days.

We have run a complete CRM migration onto Attio for a health-tech company, preserving hundreds of live automations. This offer is that experience packaged into a fixed scope at a fixed price.

Invoiced 50% to start, 50% on handover. One revision pass on views and attribute naming is included within the 5 days. You keep everything: the workspace, the decisions sheet, the handover doc.

Start your onboarding →
  • In scope, all done for you
  • Workspace and object model setup. People and companies tuned, custom objects where they earn their keep, and a person type model so sales-owned and marketing-owned records never collide.
  • One data import. One source file, mapped to up to 20 custom attributes, with email-based dedupe so you start clean instead of starting over.
  • Two pipeline or list views, built with the filters, statuses, and sort your team will actually use.
  • Sender and domain setup guidance. Written guidance for connecting email and keeping your sending domain healthy. Guidance, not DNS administration.
  • One 60-minute decisions call, driven by the pre-filled decisions sheet.
  • One 60-minute training session on your live data, recorded if you want it.
  • Written handover doc. What was built, why, how to change it, and the exact settings.
  • Not included, kept out on purpose so the price and timeline hold
  • Ongoing CRM administration. We hand over, we do not move in. Ask about a support retainer if you want one.
  • Custom API or automation builds beyond the import. Bespoke integrations are a separate scoped project.
  • More than one import file. Additional sources are quoted per file.
  • Email deliverability remediation. We give you the setup guidance; fixing a burned domain is its own engagement.

FOR AGENCIES · WHITE-LABEL WHOLESALE

Your brand, our machine.

White-label CRM onboarding delivery for agencies that sell implementations and hate delivering them. You close the deal. You keep the relationship. We run the onboarding under your brand, on a fixed fee, in five business days. Your client never hears our name.

EngagementWholesale (you pay)Typical agency retail
Standard CRM onboarding$1,950$3,500 to $6,000
Migration or rebuild (data move, pipeline redesign, or salvage of a broken instance)$3,950scoped at your retail

You set your own retail. Most agencies mark up 2x to 3x and still come in under what an hourly shop would have billed them.

YOU GET

White-labeled decision sheets

Every client-facing document carries your logo and your name. Templates delivered for your review before anything reaches the client.

YOU GET

A five-business-day SLA

From the day we have access and the completed intake form. The hourly wholesale market delivers whenever the hours run out. We do not bill hours.

YOU GET

Written recaps, in your voice

A recap after every client touchpoint, ready to forward. Nothing goes to your client half-done, and every send is confirmed before we count it done.

YOU GET

A live tracker view

Every deliverable, its status, and what is blocking it. You always know where the engagement stands without asking.

What we need from you: client access to the CRM and connected tools (read-only where possible, admin where the build requires it), and one completed intake form. The form replaces the kickoff meeting; it takes your client about twenty minutes.

Capacity: we deliberately run a limited number of onboarding slots per month so the five-day SLA holds. Slots are first-committed, first-served. If a month is full, you get the next available window in writing before you commit.

Conflicts, stated plainly: every inbound is conflict-checked before we engage. If your shop overlaps a lane we already occupy, we tell you on the first call and part as friends.

Quote a live or stalled onboarding →One 20-minute call. We quote it fixed, on the call.

Questions

Why Attio?
It is the best CRM for teams who think in data, and the fastest to set up right when the decisions come first. Attio is where we can commit to five days at a fixed fee. Agencies bringing other platforms: ask, we scope case by case.
My last import went badly. Can you salvage it?
Yes, as a migration or rebuild, scoped as its own engagement. The case study above started exactly there: a failed trial, roughly 64,000 import errors, and a sync re-polluting the portal. Salvage is a sequencing problem, and sequencing is the method.
Do you administer the CRM afterward?
No. We hand over, we do not move in. The handover doc gives you every setting and the reasoning behind it. If you want ongoing help, ask about a support retainer.
What do you need from us to start?
Workspace access and your import file. Day 0 is the day both arrive, and the decisions sheet goes out the same day you say "start."
