Complex delivery · External marketing direction · Real estate

InmoYael

A €2,300 website brief that became external marketing direction for a real-estate business: 40+ pages, a CRM dependency, a staging-to-production migration, and an ending I am not going to dress up.

01 — Whose project this was

InmoYael was Andrés’s client, not mine. He brought me in because improving the website was part of his CRM implementation strategy, and we worked the engagement together.

My role was external marketing direction: strategy, website, SEO, measurement, methodology, documentation and digital architecture. Andrés held the client relationship, the Zoho CRM work and the design-side elements.

I am specific about this because a portfolio that blurs who did what is not worth reading.

02 — How the scope moved

It began as a €2,300 website project. It became marketing direction, because once you start asking where the leads go after they arrive, the website stops being the whole question.

A real-estate site is not a brochure. Properties change, the CRM is the source of truth, the search has to work against live data, and the whole thing has to survive a migration from staging into production without losing any of it.

What made it hard
The website was never the hard part. The hard part was that the site depended on a CRM, the CRM depended on the client, and the deadline depended on both.
03 — What was delivered
04 — The messy part

Production is where digital projects actually get decided. This one had a staging-to-production migration, property data that had to arrive intact, CRM dependencies outside my control, Consent Mode behaving differently once live, CDN caching masking fixes, and a run of bugs that only existed in production.

One of them was mine: a capitalisation mistake in a permalink broke a form, and it took me longer than I would like to find it. I mention it because anyone who has run a delivery knows that list is never empty, and a case study without one is a brochure.

05 — How it ended

The client ended the relationship in August 2026, dissatisfied.

The technical work and the deliverables are verifiable and they are listed above. What did not happen was a clean line from that work to measurable business outcomes — the dependencies were not all mine to close, and the engagement stopped before the parts that would have produced those numbers were finished.

I am not going to argue the point in public, and I am not going to present this as a growth story. It is a delivery story, and it is the most complex single build I have been responsible for.

06 — What this proves

Ownership under ambiguity, at real scale: 40+ pages, a live CRM dependency, multiple stakeholders, an 82-point client feedback round executed, and a migration that had to work.

It also proves the thing I would want a client to check before hiring me — that I will tell you what actually happened.
