About

I'm JP — a GoHighLevel specialist based in the Philippines, working with agencies and service businesses across the US.

Most projects start the same way. A GoHighLevel account has grown messy over time — dead triggers, half-built automations, a snapshot nobody finished cleaning up, or a funnel that was never actually connected to the CRM behind it.

My job is to go in, understand what's actually happening, and rebuild it so it holds. Clean structure. Triggers that fire. A system your team can actually use.

Front End

  • Funnels & landing pages
  • UX & conversion structure
  • Booking & consult flows

Back End

  • GoHighLevel & CRM
  • Automation & A2P
  • Pipelines & calendars

Capabilities

What I handle inside a GHL account.

Most projects touch several of these at once — a "quick automation fix" usually surfaces a cleanup job underneath it.

01

Funnels

Landing pages, lead funnels, booking funnels and sales funnels built to connect directly to the CRM behind them.

Landing PagesLead FunnelsBooking Funnels
02

Automation

Follow-up, nurture, appointment reminders and no-show workflows that actually fire — built or repaired.

Lead NurtureFollow-UpReminders
03

CRM & Pipelines

Pipeline architecture, opportunity management and lead routing structured so data still makes sense months later.

Communication

A2P / 10DLC registration, SMS and email set up for compliant deliverability from day one.

Booking

Calendars and appointment workflows built around how the business actually schedules, not the GHL default.

Integrations

Webhooks, Zapier and third-party connections that keep the rest of the stack talking to GoHighLevel.

GoHighLevel Automation

Automation samples.

Real workflow builds from inside GoHighLevel — branching logic, reply-vs-timeout handling, internal notifications, and multi-stage nurture, not just a trigger and an email.

GrowthForge Marketing lead segmentation workflow
Lead Segmentation · Nurture Workflow

GrowthForge Marketing

Splits new leads into five nurture tracks by reported monthly revenue, then branches follow-up messaging based on reply vs. timeout — automatically escalating higher-value leads to the sales team.

See Full Breakdown ▾

When someone submits the GrowthForge lead magnet form, this workflow tags them, sends an internal notification to the team, creates a pipeline opportunity, and delivers the resource by email. It then reads their reported monthly revenue and splits them into one of five nurture tracks (Under $10k, $10k–$50k, $50k–$100k, $100k+, or none reported), each getting its own tagged follow-up email. From there, reply-vs-timeout branching logic keeps nurturing engaged leads differently from ones who go quiet, with wait steps, tagging, and internal sales tasks handling the higher-value tiers automatically.

Discovery Call Outcome Router workflow
Call Outcome Routing

Discovery Call Outcome Router

Reads the outcome field the moment a call is marked complete and routes the contact down one of five branches — Closed Won, Interested, Needs Follow-up, Not a Fit, or No Show — each with its own tagging, pipeline move, and messaging sequence.

See Full Breakdown ▾

Triggered the moment a contact is tagged 'Call Completed,' this workflow reads the 'Call Outcome' field and routes the contact down one of five branches: Closed Won, Interested, Needs Follow-up, Not a Fit, or No Show. Each branch handles its own tagging, moves the contact to the right pipeline stage, fires an internal notification to the team, and sends a tailored email/SMS sequence — onboarding for closed deals, a case-study nurture for interested leads, a manual follow-up task and reminder emails for the 'needs follow-up' group, a polite close-out for those who aren't a fit, and a reschedule SMS for no-shows. Every outbound message is followed by a Wait step before branching again on reply-vs-timeout, with Go To loops routing contacts into the right long-term nurture workflow at the end.

Client Onboarding Automation workflow
Client Onboarding · Milestone Tracking

Client Onboarding Automation

Fires the moment a deal closes, then gates the client through five onboarding milestones in sequence — chasing each one with reminders and reply-vs-timeout logic until it's actually done, not just marked done.

See Full Breakdown ▾

Fires the moment an opportunity's status changes to 'Closed Won,' tagging the contact as a New Client, setting Onboarding Status to Started, moving the opportunity to Onboarding, and sending a welcome email that kicks off the onboarding checklist. From there it gates the client through five milestones in sequence — contract signed, invoice paid, documents complete, team assigned, and kickoff call booked — checking a condition at each step and, if it isn't met yet, sending reminder emails and SMS with Wait steps and reply-vs-timeout branching until it is. Internal notifications keep the team looped in at every stage change. Once the kickoff call is booked, it sends a confirmation email and a 24-hour SMS reminder, then shifts into monitoring client engagement — tagging active clients, or escalating quiet ones through check-in emails, re-engagement tags, manual outreach tasks, and finally an internal emergency-call task if a client goes fully unresponsive.

More automation builds — including A2P-gated SMS flows, snapshot-wide cleanup workflows, and internal alerting systems — are covered case-by-case in the GoHighLevel Systems section below, since most of that work lives inside private client accounts.

He's incredibly reliable, cares about the work, and genuinely wants to solve problems rather than just check a box. I'd keep him exclusively busy if I could.

Your funnel is only as good as the system behind it.

If your GoHighLevel account is messy, your follow-up is inconsistent, or your funnel isn't connected to the backend properly — let's fix it.
