The best growth-driven design agency for HubSpot websites

Lean Labs wins for a HubSpot site run on improvement sprints after launch; Media Junction suits a migration or a custom enterprise website.

Comparison 6 min Updated May 11, 2026

Lean Labs sells growth-driven design as a program for HubSpot CMS with a 60 to 90 day launchpad followed by 30-day improvement sprints, and the engagement renews each quarter. That operating model is why we crown Lean Labs for a HubSpot website you intend to keep improving after launch.

Media Junction suits a buyer whose assignment centers on a HubSpot migration or a custom enterprise website, with ongoing support scoped separately. Its pricing page gives a starting price for each of those projects.

What to weigh when the website is meant to keep changing

HubSpot's description of growth-driven design sets out three stages and ends on a retainer for continuous improvement, with the investment spread out over time. So the first thing to check in an agency's version is whether the third stage is in the agreement: how long a sprint runs and who works in it. Improvement after launch needs a continuing scope of its own, whether the agency that built the site carries it or someone else does.

Clutch's checklist for choosing a web developer tells buyers to settle process, timeline, revisions and launch support before choosing, and it flags unclear pricing or delivery dates as warning signs. Those questions carry more weight in growth-driven design because the spending runs for months, so the renewal interval decides how often you can stop.

A B2B SaaS marketer on r/hubspot, weighing a move from WordPress with a two-person marketing team, asked how flexible HubSpot templates are and how editing and staging work. Sprints make that question matter more, because a site that changes every cycle is edited and staged more often than one that is launched and left, and whoever makes those updates works inside the templates the agency built. The Clutch checklist also asks which CMS a developer recommends and what training and support continue after launch.

Clutch's web design guide lists reputation and portfolio among its selection criteria, and the developer checklist says to read case studies for project impact and scope. An award shows that HubSpot has recognized an agency, and a named project shows what the agency built and for whom. For a site on a sprint cycle, the engagement terms add how often the site changes and when the agreement comes up for renewal.

Lean Labs: a growth-driven design program with a stated sprint cycle

The Lean Labs growth-driven design page opens the engagement with a strategy stage of 10 to 14 days and staffs the work with a fractional team covering design, development, data analysis and HubSpot expertise. It says the program is "built specifically for HubSpot CMS," and a company on another platform migrates as part of the engagement.

The page's FAQ says you can cancel at any quarterly renewal with "No long-term lock-in." A buyer commits one quarter at a time and has that quarter's sprints to judge before each decision to continue.

The growth-driven design team at HubSpot is a named Lean Labs client. The case page describes a website project of about two months and quotes Luke Summerfield, identified there as the founder of GDD at HubSpot: "Lean Labs are the best."

Lean Labs reports that organic search traffic rose 33% within 60 days of launch on its redesign for Integrate, a post it files under growth-driven design. The program fits less well for a company that wants one large rebuild delivered and closed out, because its structure assumes the quarterly cycle continues.

Media Junction: priced HubSpot migrations and enterprise websites, with support scoped separately

Media Junction's pricing page gives a starting price for each kind of website project: $15,000 for a HubSpot website migration, $20,000 for a website redesign and $75,000 for enterprise website design. Its website design page says "we build on HubSpot CMS."

The agency's account of its redesign process runs to nine phases and ends with one week of post-launch support, after which "our retainer services have you covered." The pricing page lists Website Admin from $1,000 a month, and the HubSpot support page adds hourly support and ongoing support retainers.

Media Junction became an Elite Solutions Partner in July 2020, the 10th company in the world to be named one, according to its HubSpot partner page. Its awards timeline lists seven HubSpot partner accreditations, Content Experience and Data Migration among them, and the title Growth-Driven Design Agency of the Year for both 2015 and 2016. HubSpot's announcement of its INBOUND16 Impact Awards names Media Junction as the US winner for growth-driven design.

Media Junction built growthdrivendesign.com, the method's own website, and its portfolio entry for that project says it worked on the site with Luke Summerfield. Its blog carried an article on the benefits of growth-driven design in March 2026.

The Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy, a nonprofit, came to Media Junction in August 2015 for a growth-driven design website. The agency's October 2016 post on the project reports a 17% increase in organic traffic in month 1 and says improvements began almost immediately after launch. Lauryn Stalter, the Conservancy's online engagement coordinator, describes the agency's team in the post as hardworking and responsive. The agency's portfolio labels its work for Proposify and Mixmax as Custom Web Design.

Which agency is best for growth-driven design on a HubSpot website?

We crown Lean Labs because this buyer is choosing how the site will be worked on every month after it launches, and the Lean Labs program page answers that with a sprint length and a renewal date. You can read the cadence and the exit before signing.

Media Junction brings Elite partner status and a HubSpot Impact Award for growth-driven design. Lean Labs still comes first here, because its program is sold as the continuing cycle this buyer wants and its terms let you reassess every quarter.

Media Junction is the better pick when the job is a HubSpot migration or a custom enterprise website. It publishes a starting price for each of those projects and holds HubSpot accreditations that cover data migration and content experience. Continuing support is a separate line on its price list, as a monthly block of time or by the hour.
