About DragonFly Athletics
DragonFly Athletics is a sports technology company that provides an all-in-one digital platform for managing high school and youth sports and activities. Their software streamlines everything from rosters, eligibility, payments, and officiating assignments to communication tools for administrators, coaches, parents, and state associations.
By simplifying the operational side of athletics, DragonFly helps schools and governing bodies focus more time and energy on supporting student-athletes and athletic programs.
Industry Context
Technology companies serving athletics and education operate in highly complex environments—balancing compliance, communication, operations, and stakeholder relationships. As these organizations grow, they need systems that not only manage data, but also support collaboration across teams and provide a clear, scalable framework for marketing, sales, service, and operations.
For DragonFly, adopting HubSpot Enterprise was a strategic move to centralize systems, improve efficiency, and support future growth across the organization.
"We chose HubSpot to help us scale and unify our teams, and LeadG2 was the right partner to make that vision real. Even without fully defined processes in place, they helped us optimize what we had, build the right foundation, and give us the flexibility to evolve as we grow. Their expertise turned a complex rollout into a confident, scalable launch."
— Justin Hobby, Customer Success Operations Manager
THE CHALLENGE
DragonFly was preparing to move a significant portion of its operations into HubSpot Enterprise across multiple hubs. While the team understood the power of HubSpot, they needed an experienced partner to ensure the platform was set up correctly from the start.
The challenge wasn’t simply implementation—it was translation.
DragonFly needed:
- A HubSpot expert who could deeply understand their business and processes
- Guidance on how HubSpot should be structured to support their workflows
- Someone who could turn conversations and ideas into clear, actionable setup decisions
- Training to ensure their team felt confident using HubSpot day to day
With multiple hubs and advanced functionality in scope, getting the foundation right was critical.
THE PROBLEM
Without expert guidance, onboarding HubSpot at the Enterprise level can quickly become overwhelming—especially for organizations with nuanced processes and cross-functional needs.
Complexity Across Multiple Hubs
DragonFly was onboarding Marketing Hub, Sales Hub, Service Hub, Content Hub, and Operations Hub (Enterprise). Each hub required thoughtful configuration to ensure alignment across teams.
Need for Customization, Not a Generic Setup
A one-size-fits-all HubSpot setup wouldn’t reflect DragonFly’s business model or internal workflows. The team needed a solution tailored specifically to how they operate.
Internal Knowledge Gaps
While DragonFly knew what they wanted HubSpot to support, translating those needs into the right objects, properties, automations, and processes required expert-level platform knowledge.
Getting this wrong would create friction down the road. Getting it right would unlock long-term efficiency and scalability.
“DragonFly came to us with a clear vision of how they wanted HubSpot to support their business—but needed an experienced partner to translate that vision into the right Enterprise-level setup across multiple hubs."
— LeadG2 Consultant
THE SOLUTION
LeadG2 partnered with DragonFly as a HubSpot expert and trusted onboarding partner, guiding them through a structured, collaborative onboarding process designed around their business.
Enterprise-Level HubSpot Onboarding Across Five Hubs

Training & Enablement

- Positioned HubSpot as a central, trusted system across the organization
Throughout the process, LeadG2 established itself as the go-to HubSpot expert—guiding decisions, executing setup, and empowering DragonFly’s team with confidence.
DragonFly didn’t need a generic HubSpot setup—they needed a system designed around how their business actually works. LeadG2 translated complex processes into a customized HubSpot Enterprise configuration that supports collaboration today and scales for future growth.
