Move your business data without losing the history, logic, or trust.
I help migrate contacts, orders, products, payments, custom fields, files, and historical records between platforms with a careful plan, validation, and cleanup.
No bulk import guessing. No mystery spreadsheets. Just a senior developer mapping the data before anything moves.
The risky part is not the export
Most migration problems happen because the old system and new system do not think the same way.
A migration is not just moving rows from one place to another. Fields, relationships, tags, statuses, ownership, dates, payments, and old business rules all need to land in a way the new system can actually use.
Data loses meaning
Contacts move over, but tags, source fields, lifecycle stages, order history, or custom objects do not match how the new platform works.
Imports create duplicates
Old records, partial exports, bad emails, and inconsistent formatting can turn a new CRM into a messy one on day one.
Teams lose confidence
If people cannot trust the migrated data, they go right back to spreadsheets, manual checks, and platform workarounds.
What I help migrate
Data migration work for real business systems, not just clean demo databases.
I am useful when the migration has history, edge cases, custom fields, or platform logic that needs a developer who can read the data and understand the workflow.
CRM migrations
- Contacts, companies, deals, tags, notes, and custom fields
- HubSpot, Keap, and legacy CRM data
- Deduplication, mapping, and field cleanup
Ecommerce and website data
- Customers, products, orders, subscriptions, and history
- Shopify, WooCommerce, WordPress, and custom systems
- Media, documents, files, and relational records
Custom migration utilities
- CSV cleanup, API scripts, and database transforms
- Dry runs, validation reports, and exception handling
- Post-migration cleanup and spot checks
Why work with me
A migration needs someone who can see both the data and the business process.
Large migration experience
I have handled large CRM migrations involving hundreds of thousands of contacts, orders, and payment-related records.
Web systems background
I understand WordPress, Shopify, PHP, MySQL, CRMs, APIs, and the older systems migrations often have to escape from.
Direct technical ownership
You work with the person mapping the fields, writing the scripts, checking the results, and fixing the weird edge cases.
How migration starts
The first call is about finding what needs to survive the move.
We do not need to solve the entire migration on the call. The goal is to understand the current system, the destination platform, and the highest-risk parts of the data.
Map the source data
We look at where the records live now, how they are structured, and which fields, relationships, files, and history actually matter.
Define the destination
We map the data into the new platform’s fields, objects, tags, stages, and workflows so the result supports the business.
Plan the migration path
We decide whether the work needs exports, API scripts, database queries, cleanup passes, dry runs, or a staged migration.
Move carefully
The migration is run with validation, spot checks, exception handling, and a cleanup plan so the new system starts steady.
Need to move data without making a mess?
Schedule a 30-minute call and we will talk through what you are moving, where it needs to go, and what risks need to be handled first.

Let’s map the move.
Bring the messy version. The exports, the old CRM, the new platform, the weird fields, the duplicate records, and the “we are not sure what this means anymore” columns. That is where a careful migration starts.

Data migration FAQs
What kinds of data can you migrate?
Common migrations include contacts, companies, deals, orders, products, payments, tags, notes, custom fields, documents, files, and records from legacy databases or custom systems.
Can you clean up the data before importing it?
Yes. Cleanup is often part of the work. That can include deduplication, formatting, field mapping, invalid record handling, and deciding what should not move.
Do you use APIs or CSV imports?
Both. The right path depends on the platforms, amount of data, relationships between records, and whether the destination system needs custom objects or automated processing.
Can you help after the migration?
Yes. Post-migration support can include validation, reports, cleanup, fixes, workflow adjustments, and training notes for the team.
