Van der Hilst

Powerful Design

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts.

At Van der Hilst it's all about personal contact. A user-friendly website was therefore necessary to be able to propagate this properly. There was insufficient focus on their offerings in education, training and incompany programs. As a result, the website was automatically not adequately focused on conversion. The following challenges were identified:

The menu and navigation could be improved for a more user-friendly experience.
Time loss for visitors as a result of long registration forms.
The website and the CRM were insufficiently aligned.

Within the collaboration between Van der Hilst and Conversion Crew, we are incredibly proud of the results that have been achieved.

Link with CRM
Van der Hilst now works centrally from the HubSpot CRM to run their marketing activities and CMS. An user-friendly system for the back office that everyone can work with. This facilitates the team to better help communication professionals.

Multi-step form
Previously, visitors who wanted to register for a training had to fill in a long (and therefore time-consuming) form, before they were given more information. Visitors can now easily register for each course by navigating through the various steps. It is additionally possible to filter on the website through various courses and training sessions in order to find the best match. Very handy!

Contributing ideas to marketing activities
Within our continuous collaboration, we regularly contribute ideas to campaigns that combine the strengths of the HubSpot CRM and the new website. An example was the last webinar that Van der Hilst held. With the use of handy workflows, participants were well informed about the developments.

Reviews

Customer-oriented, knowledgeable and flexible! We have been working with Conversion Crew and HubSpot since 2017. Conversion Crew delivered a new website in 2021, so it was once again up to date. They helped us look beyond the website and made sure that we designed back-office processes to work more efficiently and better utilise our database for marketing purposes. In the last 4 years, our company has changed and so has Conversion Crew. But some things did not change: Conversion Crew perfectly understands what we do and what marketing strategy should go with it. What’s more, their thinking goes beyond the questions you ask them.
