Situation
Shoper’s onboarding team helps new clients set up stores, payment gateways, and delivery integrations.
Problem
Onboarding lived inside the sales pipeline, distorting sales metrics and making it hard to track progress or the indirect revenue from adopting monetized services (payments, deliveries).
Solution
We created a ticket pipeline in HubSpot for onboarding and added workflows to track adoption of payments, deliveries, and basic store setup, separating onboarding and sales metrics.
Benefit
Management gains visibility into completion and service adoption; onboarding works more efficiently; sales efficiency reporting stays accurate.
The Situation
Shoper is a leading Polish SaaS e-commerce platform, powering thousands of online stores with built-in payments, logistics, and marketplace integrations.
Onboarding assists new Shoper clients with store setup, payment gateways, and delivery integrations. From the beginning, this function had been treated as part of Sales.
The Problem
Folding onboarding into Sales skewed sales metrics and reporting.
Without a separate pipeline, the team couldn’t reliably track onboarding progress or link adoption of monetized features like payments and delivery integrations to revenue.
Our Solution
-
We built a dedicated ticket pipeline for onboarding activities.
(Onboarding pipeline configuration in HubSpot) -
Implemented workflows to track client adoption of payments, delivery integrations, and basic store setup.

(Ticket completion workflow in HubSpot)
-
Separated metrics so onboarding performance and sales efficiency are reported independently.
Business Impact
Visibility for management—a clear view of onboarding completion and service adoption by the client.
Operational efficiency—onboarding teams work in a pipeline designed for post-sale service, not sales.
Accurate sales reporting—onboarding no longer distorts sales efficiency and the sales pipeline reflects actual revenue-generating work.
