Below are the stages of a feasibility study for HubSpot Enterprise Implementation.
Conducting a HubSpot Enterprise Suite Feasibility Study in collaboration with a HubSpot Partner generally involves several key steps to ensure that the solution meets the organization's needs. The process typically covers discovery, requirements analysis, solution design, implementation planning, and evaluation.

Approximate Total Cost: $12,000 - $25,500
Additional Factors:
- Customization & Complexity: The more customized the requirements, the more time and cost.
- Partner Expertise: Rates may vary based on the experience and geographic location of the HubSpot Partner.
- Licensing Costs: HubSpot Enterprise Suite licensing is separate from the feasibility study and could range from $1,200 to $3,200+ per month, depending on the hubs and features required.
This is a general outline, and actual costs/hours may vary based on the complexity of your organization's needs and the partner's specific pricing structure.
