Angel City Football Club did it with a little help from HubSpot.
When they started, data was housed across multiple systems.
HubSpot unified their website, email marketing, and fan experience in one platform.
This allowed their small team of three to build an entire website in just three days.
The results? Nearly 350 new sign-ups a week and 300% database growth in just two years.
