Marketing automation agency for SMEs
Automated marketing workflows for less manual work and more consistent lead follow-up
What does a marketing automation agency do?
ClickForest is a specialised marketing automation agency for Belgian SMEs that structurally sets up and streamlines marketing automation. ClickForest builds smart systems with tools like HubSpot, ActiveCampaign and Make.com that put your marketing and sales on autopilot.
The goal is simple: less manual work in the funnel, automatic lead qualification and a follow-up process that runs more consistently. This leaves the team more time for the things that truly make an impact.
Why marketing automation for growing SMEs?
Because marketing automation is essential when the team is losing time to repetitive tasks. A marketing co-pilot takes over lead follow-up, email nurturing and data management. This automatically converts cold leads into sales-ready prospects, so the focus can be on strategy and personal sales conversations.
Quick overview
- Result: Less manual work, more consistent lead follow-up and better alignment between marketing and sales
- Timeline: First workflows live as soon as feasible, full implementation in 6-8 weeks, 6 months of guidance
- Included: Custom workflows, tool integrations, team training, monthly optimisation and strategy sessions
- Investment: €3,000 setup + €800/month for 6 months, then independently continued
Which parts of marketing does ClickForest automate?
Intelligent lead scoring
AI analyses behaviour and fit to automatically determine which leads are sales-ready. Sales no longer wastes time on cold leads.
Personalised nurture flows
Nurture flows that adapt in real time to your prospect's behaviour. The right message at the right moment, fully automatically.
Automatic distribution across multiple channels
New content is automatically promoted via email and social media. Publish once, distribute everywhere without manual work.
Active sales support
The sales team receives automatic briefings and alerts on warm leads. They know exactly who to call and what about.
Why does marketing get stuck?
Too much manual work
Following up leads manually, sending emails one by one, transferring data between systems. Your team is drowning in repetitive work.
Inconsistent follow-up
Warm leads go cold because follow-up arrives too late. No standard process means: some prospects get 5 touches, others get 0.
Data scattered across tools
The CRM doesn't know what the email tool is doing. Marketing and sales work with different data. Nobody has the complete picture.

ClickForest's approach in 3 phases
Phase 1: Analysis and first results
ClickForest analyses the processes and implements the first workflows as quickly as feasible, delivering immediate results.
Phase 2: Full implementation
All workflows are built, tested and integrated. Your team learns to use and optimise the system.
Phase 3: Optimisation and autonomy
Monthly optimisations based on data. After 6 months everything runs independently within your team.
How does the co-pilot project run?
From analysis to autonomy in 4 clear phases.
Week 1-2: Analysis and first results
Discovery call, process analysis and tool audit. ClickForest immediately implements the first workflows that deliver measurable results as quickly as feasible.
Week 3-8: Full implementation
All workflows are built: lead scoring, email automation, CRM synchronisation, reporting. Includes integrations and testing.
Week 9-12: Training and fine-tuning
The team learns to use and optimise the system. ClickForest refines workflows based on initial data and feedback.
Month 4-6: Optimisation and autonomy
Monthly optimisation sessions, data analysis and strategic adjustments. After month 6 the team is fully independent.
What does ClickForest's service include?
Custom workflows and integration
Workflows tailored to your process, connected to your CRM and tools. No templates, but a proven approach aligned to your situation.
Team training and playbooks
We train your team step by step. Including full documentation so you can continue independently after the project.
Strategy and support
Monthly strategy sessions and direct support line. We monitor performance and adjust where needed.
Results-focused approach
ClickForest focuses on concrete output: working workflows, integrated systems and a team that can use them independently. What is built is measurable and transferable.
For whom is marketing automation suitable?
Suitable for
- B2B businesses with long sales cycles that require constant nurturing and follow-up
- Marketing teams of 3-15 people drowning in repetitive tasks and manual work
- Scale-ups that need to grow without hiring proportionally more marketing FTEs
- Businesses with many leads but inconsistent follow-up and low conversion to sales
- Organisations that want to automate but have no in-house AI or automation expertise
Not suitable for: Startups without structured processes, businesses with fewer than 5 employees or organisations looking for a "quick fix" only. Marketing co-pilot is a strategic project, not a one-time setup.

Frequently asked questions
ClickForest runs marketing automation projects founder-led: clients work directly with Frederiek Pascal, without account managers or handoff systems. ClickForest combines technical implementation with marketing expertise and builds workflows that are immediately usable, including integration with existing tools and knowledge transfer to the team.
A project consists of a one-time setup and a monthly retainer over 6 months of guidance. The exact investment depends on the scope and the tools already in use. ClickForest discusses what fits the situation during the discovery call. After the project, all workflows, connections and documentation are yours.
Typically the first workflows are live within the first two weeks. ClickForest deliberately starts with what delivers results fastest, such as automatic lead follow-up or a welcome flow. The full implementation, including integrations and team training, runs through to week 6 to 8.
In the startup phase the team needs 3 to 4 hours for a discovery call and process analysis. After that, one to two hours per week to align and learn is sufficient. As the workflows run, the time investment decreases.
Yes. All workflows, API connections and documentation belong to the client. After the project everything runs under your own accounts. ClickForest builds systems that are manageable internally, without monthly dependence on an external party.
ClickForest connects to the tools already in use, such as HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce, ActiveCampaign or Mailchimp. For connections between systems, ClickForest uses Make.com or Zapier. No new software purchases are needed.
Buying software without implementation rarely delivers the expected result. ClickForest configures the tools, builds the workflows to specification and trains the team so everything is used effectively. The starting point is not an empty tool but a working system that fits the processes.
Yes. If there are already workflows that are not running well or are outdated, ClickForest looks at what is wrong and rebuilds or improves them. Sometimes the biggest gains lie in cleaning up what is already there, not in building something new.
