In this post, we’ll discuss everything you need to know about a Salesforce QuickStart, and whether or not it’s the right choice for your business. We’ll be continuing this blog series of QuickStart packages with a post for each one including Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Marketing Cloud, and more so stay tuned!

What is a QuickStart?

Before we get started, let’s explain what a Salesforce QuickStart is and how it works. In essence, a QuickStart is a fast and simple implementation of Salesforce’s products. They are meant to provide value to your business quickly and at a small price. It focuses on key planning and decision making, standard and custom configurations and essential training for companies. QuickStarts are designed for the Professional or Enterprise Edition of Salesforce or FSC.

Quickstarts are available for the following Salesforce products:

  • Sales Cloud
  • Service Cloud
  • Marketing Cloud
  • Community Cloud
  • Pardot
  • Social Studio
  • Health Cloud
  • Financial Cloud
  • Philanthropy Cloud
  • CPQ
  • Field Services

Who is a QuickStart for?

QuickStarts are perfect for small to medium sized businesses who are looking to make a digital transformation and start working with Salesforce as quickly as possible. It’s for businesses who are interested in streamlining their operations and moving it up to the cloud. It’s also great for individual departments or small sales & customer services teams who want to get the most out of their Salesforce experience from day one.

How does a QuickStart work?

QuickStarts are performed by certified Salesforce consulting partners like SkyPlanner who are experienced in all the ins and outs of Salesforce CRM. Unlike a standard implementation, our consultants will get you onboard with Salesforce in just a few short weeks. Depending on the QuickStart package you choose for your business, you will have a team consisting of a Consultant, Project Manager, Salesforce Developer, and Quality Assurance to guide you through the implementation. We will start off by analyzing your business and identifying its needs. From there, we’ll create a roadmap to help your organization meet your management needs. We’ll determine what customer touchpoints and data need to be tracked in Salesforce, and then create reports and dashboards to visualize the information.

After the requirements gathering, our certified consultants will begin configuring Salesforce to your business. They’ll optimize the software to provide your users the best experience possible, increasing your productivity and team collaboration. Once the configuration is live, our consultants will tailor a training session for your users that reflects your business processes. We’ll go through hands-on exercises that will cover key concepts and best practices for quickly finding, creating, and updating records. Ultimately, this will help drive adoption for your users, and ensure you get the most out of your Salesforce experience.

What are the benefits of a QuickStart package?

The biggest advantage of a QuickStart is its fast implementation which makes it a great way to begin introducing Salesforce to your company. Some other benefits include:

  • Dramatic improvements in a short period of time
  • Fixed price engagement with a clearly defined scope and set of deliverables
  • Comprehensive 360 degree view of your customer’s data across your company
  • Improved analytical data and reporting with your KPIs
  • Drive automation on time-consuming tasks and take the burden off shoulders your team
  • Enhance the communication among your team members and close deals faster
  • Knowledge transfer and best practices
  • Customized end-user training with hands-on examples that drive adoption
  • Proven results

Another great thing about Quickstarts is that it’s totally scalable. In other words, if your business experiences unexpected growth, you don’t have to completely change your software but instead build upon it. A Salesforce consulting partner like SkyPlanner can help you scale and leverage your Salesforce org to meet your business demand and growth.

What people are saying

Five starts

Five stars on customer satisfaction and Salesforce appexchange ratings.

"Excellent Consultants. During the training I received by the SkyPlanner team, I was lucky to better understand the powerful capabilities of Salesforce.com. They were very effective, straight-to-the-point, and with a solid knowledge of the CRM and the Force.com platform. Definitively they showed us how to streamline the business process within our company. Great group of people spreading valuable knowledge to make businesses grow. I highly recommend them."

Ramiro Allen — Chief Software Engineer @ TurboPay Limited

"Excellent partner! We have been working with SkyPlanner for almost one year now. It has been a pleasure working with their team. If it wasn't for them we would have not been able to go-live with our platform when we did. They understood our needs and were not only able to execute but guide us in our decisions. We continue using them for our on-going projects. They have a deep understanding of the overall platform. Their team is always ready, willing and able to help."

Ivan de Moya — VP Innovation Technology @ SunStreet

"SkyPlanner was professional, creative, reliable and extremely accommodating. From the onset of the project, it was clear that we had found the right partner. Our project was complex and every time we hit a roadblock, SkyPlanner was helpful in identifying and implementing a solution. Jorge Fernandez [SkyPlanner's Co-Founder & Managing Director] was our primary contact and we cannot say enough about what an asset he was in bringing our project to resolution."

Ryan Borcherds — Marketing @ Deliver Lean

"On time, on budget, great quality on every project. Whenever I get asked to recommend a Salesforce.com partner, I do not hesitate on my reply: Go with SkyPlanner. I had the privilege to have worked with many teams over the years, none have brought to the table the enthusiasm the SkyPlanner team has. This combined with their professionalism and expertise are the reasons I ONLY recommend one partner: SkyPlanner. In every project (and we have done many) they have consistently delivered on time and on budget with significantly superior quality."

Juan Meza — Strategic Business Development Director @ Sony Electronics Inc.

"Outstanding Service! Happy to have them as our partner! SkyPlanner is by far the most experienced and reliable Salesforce partner. We almost gave up on Salesforce thanks to our previous partner, fortunately we found SkyPlanner and they came to the rescue! They took their time to understand our needs and complexity of our organization. Highly talented, professional and dedicated team. I cannot stress enough how happy we are to have them as our partner and we look forward to continue building our relationship."

Nolan Pereira — Project Manager @ BLU Products
