CRM & Lifecycle Marketing

Growing CRM performance without burning out the people behind it.

Healthy habits create space for better decisions and better results — for your team, and for the customers on the other end of every message.

No pressure. No pitch. Just a human conversation.

The approach

The moments that matter, not more messages.

Timing and relevance matter more than volume — every message is built around a real moment in the customer lifecycle.

01 — Foundation moments

Creates clarity from day one

  • Welcome
  • Pre-purchase
  • Post-purchase
02 — Behavioural signals

Tells you what to act on

  • Browse abandon
  • Consumables
  • Lapsing detection
03 — Growth & expansion

Growth works best when it's earned

  • Cross-sell
  • Recommendations
  • Loyalty programmes
The GroYo Growth Loop

A four-step framework for turning an underused CRM into a compounding growth engine.

1

Wellbeing

2

Insight

Turn behaviour and context into signal, not just more data

3

Design

Build once, connected journeys that reuse across the lifecycle

4

Automate

Let the system act on the moments that matter, automatically

Meet Leigh.

Burnout doesn't happen because people aren't resilient enough. It happens when systems demand more than humans can sustainably give. After years working in CRM and insight-led marketing, I experienced that reality first-hand — burnout forced me to step away from work and rethink everything.

Not just how we perform, but how we define it. GroYo: "grow your own" — a shift in thinking, and that feeling of empowerment.

Today, I help SMBs design CRM systems, customer journeys and automation that create efficiencies, focus and wellbeing — creating space for teams and individuals to operate at their highest level.
