Adapt

An End-to-End PLG Revenue Engine

In three weeks, QC Growth designed and implemented a fully automated self-serve revenue infrastructure for Adapt — qualifying, activating and actioning every lead, not just the ones who click Contact Us.

An End-to-End PLG Revenue Engine

The challenge

Adapt wanted a Product-Led Growth (PLG) motion that did more than capture top-of-funnel signups. The goal was to ensure every lead — not just those who click “Contact Us” — is qualified, activated, and actioned across the full customer lifecycle, from first touch through conversion.

Most PLG motions stop at signup volume. This one had to make product signals drive GTM behaviour, so revenue could scale without linear headcount growth.

What we built

In three weeks we designed and implemented a fully automated, self-serve revenue infrastructure supporting both top-of-funnel growth and bottom-of-funnel conversion, with complete visibility and control for the GTM team.

  • End-to-end lifecycle automation: a 6-stage customer journey from first touch through paying customer — automated by default, human-assisted when needed but never required.
  • Intelligent lead qualification: real-time scoring at signup using Clay enrichment on company size, industry, funding stage and geography. High-fit accounts fast-tracked, non-ICP accounts waitlisted, zero manual triage.
  • Product ↔ CRM sync: a bidirectional sync between the product database and HubSpot carrying usage metrics, credit balances, integration status and key activity events, refreshed daily.
  • Behavioural email sequences: triggered when users hit credit thresholds, fail to connect integrations, go inactive, or reach activation signals — not generic time-based drip.
  • Credit-based activation model: free credits for connecting Slack and for each integration added, driving deeper adoption and reducing onboarding friction.
  • Pipeline dashboards: real-time waitlist management, pipeline by stage, stalled accounts and conversion-ready accounts.

Results

In just three weeks, Adapt launched a complete self-serve revenue infrastructure:

  • A single signup flow handling all inbound and outbound leads.
  • Automated qualification and routing with zero manual triage.
  • Full product usage visibility inside the CRM.
  • Behavioural emails driving activation and conversion.

The result is a PLG motion that supports both top-of-funnel growth and bottom-of-funnel revenue — ensuring no lead is ignored, even when they never raise their hand.
