Quick Answer: Bootstrap Creative provides HubSpot support services on flat monthly retainers of $1,000, $2,000, or $3,000 with no long-term contract, and you can cancel anytime. Jake Lett, an independent certified HubSpot developer in Metro Detroit, Michigan, handles every request himself. There are no account managers and no ticket queue. Bootstrap Creative works with B2B manufacturers, industrial service providers, and B2B software teams, and it is not a HubSpot Solutions Partner, so no software commission sits behind any recommendation.
One Certified HubSpot Developer. Zero Agency Layers.
- Direct access: You message Jake Lett, and Jake Lett writes the code. No account managers translating tickets.
- Hybrid skill set: HubL development, theme and module builds, plus the marketing side: technical SEO, Google Ads, and lead gen systems. One person, no handoffs.
- Independent by design: Not a HubSpot Solutions Partner, on purpose. No commission incentive to upsell you software tiers you don’t need.
- Flexible retainers: Flat monthly fee, cancel anytime, no penalty. Your plan simply runs through the end of the month you’ve paid for. Plans run $1,000 to $3,000/month, well under typical agency minimums.
Ongoing HubSpot Development and Technical Support
Most marketing managers don’t need a full-time developer. They need a few hours of expert work, reliably, every month. Here’s what the retainer covers:
- Custom theme and module development: HubL templates, drag-and-drop modules, and theme fixes built to HubSpot’s current standards, not marketplace duct tape.
- Website changes and troubleshooting: The backlog of ‘small’ HubSpot website updates that never get done: layout fixes, new page sections, broken CSS, mobile issues.
- Portal cleanup: Untangling the mismatched templates and abandoned modules left behind by previous agencies and freelancers.
- Technical SEO: Site speed, structured data, and the ranking issues a marketing-only agency can’t diagnose.
- Marketing Hub and Service Hub support: Email templates, workflows, custom properties, quote templates, knowledge base styling, and reporting.
Full site redesigns and platform moves sit outside the retainer and are quoted as projects. See HubSpot website migrations and redesigns.

Is There a HubSpot Support Plan With No Long-Term Contract That I Can Cancel Anytime?
Yes. Bootstrap Creative’s HubSpot support plans are month to month with no long-term contract, and you can cancel anytime. Your plan runs through the end of the month you’ve paid for, and there’s no penalty or final invoice after that. Requests already underway get finished inside that period.
Growth Partner is the one exception. It runs on 30 days written notice, because Google Ads campaigns and lead gen systems need an orderly handoff instead of a hard stop mid-cycle.
Why no contract? A support retainer should earn its renewal every month. If the work stops being worth the fee, you shouldn’t be locked in until next year.
Who Do You Call When Your HubSpot Website Needs a Small Update and You Don’t Have an In-House Developer?
Call an independent HubSpot developer on a flat monthly retainer. With Bootstrap Creative, you message Jake Lett directly and Jake Lett fixes the code. No vetting freelancers, no agency ticket queue.
When a product page breaks on mobile or sales needs a new section live by Thursday, the request goes straight to the person writing the HubL. The Essential Support plan ($1,000/month for up to 3 small requests) was built for exactly this: a dedicated developer for routine website maintenance and quick fixes, without the $80,000 salary of an in-house hire.
Not sure which plan fits?
Describe what’s broken or what you’re trying to build. You’ll get a straight answer on whether a retainer makes sense, and which tier, before you commit to anything.

Why Hire an Independent HubSpot Developer Instead of an Agency?
The math and the workflow both favor it for most B2B teams.
The math: A full-time HubSpot developer costs $80,000+ per year before benefits, and most marketing teams can’t fill that person’s calendar. An elite HubSpot agency retainer runs $60,000+ per year, and much of it funds their overhead. An independent HubSpot developer on retainer costs $12,000 to $36,000 per year and every dollar buys senior execution.
The workflow: At an agency, your request passes through an account manager, a project manager, and a ticket queue before it reaches whoever codes it. Here, the request goes to the person who does the work. That’s the difference between a landing page shipping in days versus weeks.

The tradeoff is honest too: one person doesn’t scale to enterprise workloads. If you need a 40-hour-a-week embedded team or complex data engineering, an agency or in-house hire is the right call, and I’ll tell you so.
A HubSpot Developer for B2B and Industrial Teams
Bootstrap Creative has worked in the HubSpot ecosystem since 2018, with clients in manufacturing, industrial services, laboratory services, and B2B software. That matters because B2B portals have B2B problems: RFQ and quote workflows, long sales cycles that need proper lifecycle stages, gated technical content, and websites that engineers actually read. A developer who also runs Google Ads for industrial companies and SEO builds your site with those outcomes in mind, not just clean code.
For manufacturers, the number that matters is cost per RFQ: what you spend on marketing in a month divided by the qualified quote requests you got that month. A broken quote form or an outdated capabilities page raises that number quietly. An engineer comparing suppliers won’t tell you your form failed. They’ll move to the next shop.
Based in Metro Detroit, Michigan, working with B2B teams across the US. Michigan companies searching for a local HubSpot developer or agency alternative get the added benefit of same-timezone availability and the occasional in-person meeting.
