HubSpot marketing services use HubSpot’s marketing platform — SEO, content, email, automation, and analytics — to grow a company’s traffic, leads, and conversions. This case study shows how Arissa, a certified HubSpot solutions partner, used HubSpot marketing services to identify and resolve nine technical SEO issues affecting SalesLeap’s website, creating a stronger foundation for organic visibility, usability, and search performance.
Client Background
Who is SalesLeap?
SalesLeap is a B2B sales-growth company that helps business leaders scale their outbound sales teams through coaching, online sales training, and sales-and-marketing services for venture-funded and bootstrapped software and service companies. Their website is a primary channel for reaching potential clients, which made weak organic visibility a direct constraint on growth.
The Fundamentals
What Is HubSpot Mobile Optimization?
HubSpot mobile optimization means configuring a website built on HubSpot’s Content Hub (formerly CMS Hub) to perform well on mobile devices, where most B2B prospects now first encounter a brand. While HubSpot themes and templates are responsive by default, real-world sites still develop mobile issues when custom modules, images, forms, and CSS are added over time. In practice, optimizing a HubSpot site for mobile usually covers the following.
Responsive Layout & Breakpoints
Ensuring sections, columns, and modules reflow cleanly at mobile screen widths rather than overflowing or misaligning.
Image Optimization
Compressing and correctly sizing images (HubSpot's CDN can serve optimized formats) so pages load quickly on mobile data connections.
Tappable, On-Brand CTAs
Making sure CTA modules are clickable, large enough for touch, and styled to match the brand.
Form Behavior
Confirming HubSpot forms render and submit correctly on small screens without being cut off or fixed in place.
Media Handling
Sizing and positioning video and other embeds so they don't overlap surrounding content.
Testing
Using HubSpot's in-editor mobile preview alongside real-device testing to catch issues the desktop view hides.
The Challenge
8 Mobile Issues on SalesLeap's HubSpot Site
SalesLeap’s existing website looked polished on desktop but broke down on mobile, hurting user experience and likely suppressing conversions. Arissa identified eight distinct problems.
Inconsistent alignment across devices
Sections and elements shifted out of alignment on different screen sizes, giving the site a disjointed, unprofessional look on mobile.

Missing social media icons
The Instagram and Facebook icons failed to render on mobile, weakening social proof and brand visibility exactly where mobile users expected to find links.

Fixed form & overlapping content
A form locked in a fixed position overlapped surrounding content, disrupting page flow and making it hard to read or complete on a phone.

Extra spacing on key pages
Unwanted gaps — for example, on the "Meet" page — pushed content down and broke the page's visual rhythm on mobile.

Slow-loading, unoptimized images
Large, uncompressed images increased mobile page-load times, a common driver of higher bounce rates on phones.

Overlapping video content
Embedded video overlapped adjacent elements, creating visual clutter and making nearby content hard to access.

Non-clickable CTAs
Primary call-to-action buttons weren't tappable on mobile, blocking the most important conversion paths on the site.

Off-brand CTA styling
CTA colors didn't match SalesLeap's brand palette, weakening recognition and visual consistency.

The Solution
How Arissa Optimized SalesLeap's Mobile Experience
Arissa worked through each issue with HubSpot-specific fixes.
Alignment fixes
Adjusted the CSS and module layout settings so sections aligned consistently across breakpoints and screen sizes.
Social icon integration
Re-integrated the Instagram and Facebook icons into the footer/header modules so they render reliably on mobile, restoring social links and brand presence.
Dynamic form design
Replaced the fixed-position form with a responsive form module that reflows correctly on mobile and no longer overlaps surrounding content.
Space optimization
Removed excess margins and padding on affected pages (including "Meet") to tighten the mobile layout and improve visual flow.
Image optimization
Compressed and correctly sized images and leaned on HubSpot's image delivery so pages load faster on mobile connections.
Video repositioning
Resized and repositioned video embeds so they sit cleanly within their sections without overlapping other content.
Clickable CTAs
Fixed the CTA modules so that buttons are fully tappable on touchscreens, restoring the primary conversion paths.
On-brand CTA styling
Updated CTA colors to match SalesLeap's brand palette for consistent recognition across the site.
Results
After Arissa’s HubSpot mobile optimization work, SalesLeap’s website was transformed from a desktop-only experience into a fully mobile-ready one. The concrete, observable outcomes:
A faster-loading mobile site
Compressing and correctly sizing images reduced the weight of every page, cutting load times on mobile connections.
Working conversion paths
CTAs that previously did not respond to taps are now fully clickable, and the form that once overlapped content now renders and submits cleanly — restoring the primary routes a mobile visitor takes to become a lead.
A consistent, professional layout
Alignment, spacing, and overlapping video issues were resolved, so the site now displays cleanly across phones and tablets instead of breaking apart.
Restored brand presence
The missing Instagram and Facebook icons are back, and CTA colors match SalesLeap's brand palette, strengthening recognition and social proof on mobile.
Why These Fixes Matter
The Impact of Mobile Optimization
Mobile speed and usability are not cosmetic — industry research consistently links them to bounce rate, conversions, and revenue. The issues Arissa resolved for SalesLeap map directly onto the factors these studies measure.
of mobile users abandon a site that takes more than three seconds to load
higher bounce probability as load time slows from 1s to 3s (up to 90% at 5s)
potential drop in conversions for every additional second of mobile load time
of consumers say site loading speed affects their willingness to buy
In other words, the slow images, broken CTAs, and unusable form that Arissa fixed were the exact kinds of friction that suppress mobile conversions — which is why resolving them is high-leverage work for a lead-generation site like SalesLeap’s.
Note: the four statistics above are general industry benchmarks, not SalesLeap’s specific results. They explain why the work matters. If you later obtain SalesLeap’s own analytics (load time, bounce rate, or conversion data), add them to the Results section above — real first-party numbers are the strongest possible proof.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is HubSpot mobile optimization?
HubSpot mobile optimization is the process of configuring a HubSpot website so its layout, images, forms, and CTAs display and function correctly on smartphones and tablets. It covers responsive breakpoints, image compression, tappable buttons, and resolving overlapping or misaligned content.
Why is my HubSpot website not mobile-friendly even though HubSpot is responsive?
HubSpot themes are responsive by default, but custom modules, added images, third-party embeds, and custom CSS can introduce mobile issues over time — such as misalignment, overlapping content, slow-loading images, or non-tappable CTAs. These need to be fixed at the module and CSS level.
How do you fix mobile responsiveness issues in HubSpot?
Common fixes include adjusting CSS and module layout settings for each breakpoint, compressing and resizing images, replacing fixed-position elements with responsive modules, ensuring CTA modules are tappable, and testing with HubSpot’s in-editor mobile preview plus real devices.
Does mobile optimization improve conversions?
Yes. Fixing broken CTAs, slow images, and unusable forms removes friction from the exact paths mobile users take to convert, which commonly improves conversion rate and reduces bounce rate.
