When to Hire a Consultant Instead

  • You need a fully custom integration between Salesforce and another enterprise system
  • You need a custom application built on the Salesforce platform
  • You need ongoing staff augmentation (a person, not a deliverable)
  • Your requirements are genuinely unique and don't map to any standard configuration
  • You need pipeline dashboards, support routing, marketing automation, data cleanup, or an org audit
  • You want a fixed price and a fixed timeline with no surprises
  • You don't want to spend 3 weeks in a discovery phase before anyone touches your Salesforce
  • You've gotten quotes from consulting firms and thought 'there has to be a faster way'
