SALESFORCE CONSULTING GUIDE: PART 04

Why every Salesforce implementation should be custom-made

Template solutions might be quick, but they rarely fit. Real impact comes from solutions designed with you in mind — not the average client.

 

In the previous three articles of our Salesforce Consulting Guide, we explored the early stages of the journey:

What is the actual role of a Salesforce consultant

Myth of certifications and the hidden gap in Salesforce consulting

How to align business needs with Salesforce implementation

Now, it’s time to move from theory to practice — to the actual creation of Salesforce solutions.

This stage is where many projects falter because while relying on pre-made templates or copy-paste solutions is tempting, these rarely reflect a business's real complexity.

Every company has unique workflows, goals, and challenges. That’s why at Kameleon Solutions, every implementation we deliver is tailor-made.

One size doesn’t fit all


There’s a common misconception in the world of Salesforce that once you choose a product, you can just plug it in and start using it, like downloading an app on your phone.

But that’s rarely the case. Every business has its own way of working, its own challenges, and its own goals. What works for a startup in fintech won’t make sense for a logistics company. A sales process in retail can’t be copied and pasted into manufacturing.

That’s why template solutions rarely deliver long-term value. They’re generic by nature, and your business isn’t.

Why Kameleon?


Our name says it all: adaptability. We’ve delivered projects across more than fifteen industries, in both B2B and B2C segments — from retail, wholesale, e-commerce, and finance to banking, construction, hospitality, real estate, and even iGaming. What all these clients have in common is the need for something that fits their world, not just their system.

Custom-made Salesforce solutions are not a side offering, they’re one of our core services. Can’t find an off-the-shelf Salesforce product that fits? We’ll design and build it. Already using Salesforce but it’s not serving your goals? We’ll refactor, rebuild, or expand it until it does.

We’re a one-stop shop for building modern, cloud-based CRM systems that actually work the way your business does.

In general, Salesforce gives us an amazing world of tools that can be used across industries. But when off-the-shelf options don’t fit, we create what’s missing. From custom modules to complete cloud applications, we tailor every detail to fit your business like a glove.

Success story: Westkon Precast


One of the most powerful examples of our approach is the work we’ve done for Westkon Precast, an Australian company that manufactures structural and architectural precast components for large-scale construction projects, from stadiums to highways.

For Westkon, off-the-shelf wasn’t even an option.

The AEC industry has unique needs, and Westkon’s specific business model and production structure required fully customized solutions. So that’s exactly what we built: dozens of tailor-made modules and functionalities, all integrated under one system: Westkonnect.

In our first five years together, we worked side by side with the client — developing new features, optimizing existing ones, and always sticking to our four golden rules:

  • It has to be user-friendly

  • It has to be clear and compact

  • It has to be functional and effective

  • It has to be customized to the client's needs
     

We didn’t just deliver a few tools — we helped turn Salesforce into the digital backbone of the company, used daily across estimating, planning, management, production, quality control, and delivery. The adoption rate has been massive, the feedback outstanding, and the entire solution continues to evolve.

In total, we’ve invested over 2,300 hours into this project — not just configuring a system but transforming how the company works. This kind of full-enterprise transformation is rare in Salesforce implementations — most companies deploy it in one department, maybe two. But Westkon went all in — and it paid off.

Blueprint7: Our method for making Salesforce work for you


We know that the foundation of every successful Salesforce implementation is a deep understanding of the client — their business model, their workflows, their pain points, and their goals.

That’s why our process always starts with listening.

Through tailored workshops, detailed questionnaires, and open, two-way conversations, we invest the time to fully grasp how your business operates. We don’t jump to conclusions or offer one-size-fits-all answers. Instead, we uncover the nuances that make your company unique and shape the solution around them.

This mindset is at the heart of our unique methodology — Kameleon Blueprint7 — a process designed to ensure that everything we build is custom-fit to your real-world needs, aligned with your strategy, and ready to evolve as you do.

So, it's not just about implementing Salesforce. It's about building something that feels like it was made just for you — because it was.

We craft tailor-made solutions that precisely fit your needs — and we always deliver, whatever it takes.

Unique solutions for unique needs


At Kameleon Solutions, we don’t just implement Salesforce — we adapt it to your business. And if adapting isn’t enough, we’ll build from the ground up.

Real growth doesn’t come from fitting into a template. It comes from creating something that fits you.

Stay tuned for the next article in our Salesforce Consulting Guide, where we’ll explore why simplicity is the prerequisite and what the risks are of overly complex Salesforce solutions.
