Salesforce Consulting & Development for Australian Businesses
MicroPyramid is a 12-year senior-led team that implements, customises, and develops Salesforce for Australian startups, SMBs, and charities. We cover Sales, Service, and Marketing Cloud — plus Apex, Lightning Web Components, integrations, and Agentforce AI — with afternoon overlap during Australian working hours, AUD billing via Stripe, and Privacy Act-aware data handling from the start.
A CRM is where your most sensitive personal data lives, so Australian Salesforce work is as much a compliance question as a technical one: Privacy Act 1988 and APP obligations, OAIC expectations, retention, and data residency all matter. We bring certified, long-standing Salesforce expertise — across fintech, professional services, and not-for-profits — rather than a junior ticket-mill.
Salesforce Services for Australian Teams
The full Salesforce lifecycle — implementation, customisation, Apex development, integration, Agentforce AI, and managed support — owned by one accountable senior team.
Salesforce Implementation
End-to-end Salesforce implementation for Australian businesses — from org setup and data migration to user rollout. We configure Sales, Service, and Marketing Cloud around how your Australian team actually sells and supports customers.
- Org setup and configuration
- Data migration from legacy CRMs
- User onboarding and adoption
Customisation & Automation
Tailor Salesforce to your processes with custom objects, Flows, validation rules, and Lightning pages — instead of bending your business to fit an out-of-the-box org. Built for Australian sales and service workflows.
- Custom objects and fields
- Flow and process automation
- Lightning page and UI customisation
Apex & Custom Development
Senior Apex development for the logic clicks alone cannot handle — triggers, batch jobs, Lightning Web Components, and tested code that holds up in production. Properly engineered, not cobbled together.
- Apex triggers and classes
- Lightning Web Components (LWC)
- Test coverage and CI deployment
Integration Services
Connect Salesforce to the rest of your Australian stack — accounting, billing, support desks, and data warehouses — via REST/SOAP APIs and middleware. We handle data sync, identity, and the messy edges of real integrations.
- REST and SOAP API integration
- Stripe, Xero, and finance tools
- Two-way data sync and ETL
Agentforce & AI in Salesforce
Build AI into your org with Agentforce — Salesforce’s framework for autonomous agents that answer customer questions, qualify leads, and update records — set up with the right guardrails and data access, not as a black box.
- Agentforce agent design
- Guardrails and data-access controls
- Auditable, accurate automation
Managed Services & Support
Ongoing administration, optimisation, and support to keep your org healthy — release management, security reviews, and steady improvement. A retainer that fits Australian teams without an in-house Salesforce admin.
- Admin and user management
- Release and change management
- Performance and security reviews
Configure with Clicks or Build with Apex? How to Decide
The decision that drives cost, maintainability, and risk on every Salesforce build. The honest version: configure first, code only where it genuinely adds value — we help you draw that line in discovery.
Configure with clicks when…
- Standard objects, fields, and page layouts already cover the need
- Flow can model the automation declaratively
- You want changes an admin can maintain without a developer
- It keeps the org upgrade-safe and cheaper — which is true for most requirements
Build with Apex / LWC when…
- The logic cannot be expressed declaratively — complex triggers, bulk processing, or callouts
- You need a custom UI component beyond standard Lightning
- A deep integration or middleware sync is involved
- Performance or governor limits demand engineered, tested batch jobs
How We Start — Fixed Scope, Fast
We don’t lead with open-ended retainers. Every engagement starts with a focused, fixed-scope discovery sprint — so you get a clear deliverable and a real plan before any long-term commitment.
Salesforce Discovery Sprint
- Process, data model & automation map
- Privacy Act data-handling review
- Architecture, integration & rollout plan
Implementation Sprint
- Configured Sales / Service / Marketing Cloud
- Data migration & validation
- User onboarding & adoption
Development & Support Retainer
- Apex, LWC & integration work
- Managed admin & release management
- Afternoon standups during Australian hours
Every engagement starts with a fixed-scope discovery sprint and a clear deliverable — billed in AUD via Stripe, with GST-compliant invoicing on request and certified senior consultants you talk to directly.
Why Australian Teams Choose Us for Salesforce
Four reasons Australian founders and operations leaders pick MicroPyramid over a local consultancy or a generic offshore admin team.
Your Afternoon Is Our Morning
AEST runs roughly 4–5 hours ahead of IST, so your Australian afternoon overlaps with our working morning. You get afternoon standups, same-day decisions, and end-of-day handoffs to review first thing — not responses you wake up to the next day.
Privacy Act & APPs-Aware CRM Delivery
A CRM holds personal data, so it sits squarely under the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles (regulator: the OAIC), including the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme. We make data-model, field-level-security, retention, and integration decisions with compliant data handling in mind — and Salesforce supports Australian data residency via Hyperforce.
AUD Billing via Stripe
Invoices in Australian dollars, collected via Stripe — and we can integrate those same rails into your Salesforce billing flows. No currency-conversion headaches, no wire-transfer friction, with GST-compliant invoicing available on request.
Senior Ownership, Not a Ticket Mill
Certified senior consultants and developers own every engagement directly. You will not be passed to a delivery layer of junior admins — the person you talk to in discovery is the person building your org.
Best Fit For
- Australian sales, service, and marketing teams that need Salesforce configured around real processes
- fintech and professional-services firms handling personal data under Privacy Act and APP obligations
- orgs that have outgrown clicks and need senior Apex, LWC, and integration work
- Australian not-for-profits running NPSP or Nonprofit Cloud that need senior ownership, not a junior admin
Not the Right Fit When
- one-off field tweaks with no underlying process or data complexity
- engagements looking only for staff augmentation without delivery ownership
- projects that need a different CRM platform rather than Salesforce expertise
- teams wanting the cheapest possible admin hours over properly engineered, tested work

How an Australian Salesforce Engagement Works
Every engagement starts by understanding your processes and your data obligations — scope and context before any configuration.
Discovery & Requirements
We map your sales, service, and data processes — and your Privacy Act and APP obligations — before touching the org. Context first, every time.
Solution Architecture
We design the data model, automation, and integration approach, deciding what belongs in config versus Apex — and what data lives where.
Build & Configure
We build across configuration, Apex, and LWC with test coverage and CI deployment — so changes ship safely, not by hand.
Rollout & Support
We migrate data, onboard your Australian users, and provide ongoing managed support so adoption sticks and the org keeps improving.

Straight answers to what Australian founders, CTOs, and operations leaders ask us before starting a Salesforce engagement.
What does a Salesforce consulting and development partner actually do?
A Salesforce partner implements, customises, integrates, and maintains your Salesforce org so it fits how your business really sells and serves customers. That spans configuration (objects, Flows, automation), custom development (Apex, Lightning Web Components, APIs), integrations with your other systems, data migration, AI with Agentforce, and ongoing administration — turning the platform into something that matches your processes rather than forcing your team into generic defaults.
What drives the cost of a Salesforce implementation?
The main cost drivers are scope and how many clouds you use, how much custom Apex and LWC development is needed versus point-and-click configuration, the number and complexity of integrations, the volume and messiness of data to migrate, and how many users you roll out to. We scope the work up front and give a fixed estimate after a short discovery sprint — billed in AUD via Stripe, with GST-compliant invoicing available on request — so you see where the budget goes before any build commitment.
How long does a Salesforce implementation take?
A well-scoped Sales or Service Cloud implementation is usually a matter of weeks, not months. Larger multi-cloud rollouts with custom development and integrations run longer and are best delivered in phases. We start with discovery and a roadmap, build in sprints with regular demos, and go live with training and support — so you see working configuration early and can adjust before full rollout, helped by AI-assisted engineering.
When should we configure with clicks versus build with Apex?
Configure first. Salesforce’s built-in tools — custom objects, fields, page layouts, and Flow — cover most business needs without code and keep the org maintainable and upgrade-safe. Build with Apex and Lightning Web Components only for logic the platform cannot express declaratively: complex triggers, bulk processing, custom UI components, and deep integrations. We configure first and write code where it genuinely adds value, never to show off.
Are you Privacy Act and APP compliant, and can our Salesforce data stay in Australia?
Yes. Because a CRM holds personal data, we build to the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), with the OAIC as regulator and the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme in mind. Data model, field-level security, retention, and integration choices are made with compliant data handling built in, and Salesforce supports Australian data residency via Hyperforce — hosted on AWS in the Sydney region — when it matters to your buyers or regulator.
Can you build AI into Salesforce, including Agentforce?
Yes. We build AI into Salesforce with Agentforce — Salesforce’s framework for autonomous agents that handle routine work like answering customer questions, qualifying leads, and updating records, and a major focus for Australian teams right now. We design these with the right guardrails and data-access controls so the automation is accurate and auditable, not a black box, and we wire it into the processes you already run in the org.
Do you work with Australian charities on NPSP and Nonprofit Cloud?
Yes. We set up and develop Salesforce for Australian charities and not-for-profits using Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP) and Nonprofit Cloud — donations, fundraising, supporter management, and reporting configured for how Australian for-purpose organisations actually operate, with senior ownership rather than a junior admin.
Can you take over or fix a Salesforce org another partner built — and do we keep ownership?
Yes. We run an org health check, stabilise broken automation and technical debt, and improve the org incrementally without a risky rebuild — many Australian engagements start exactly this way. You keep full ownership of your Salesforce org, configuration, and any custom code we write, and we sign NDAs and IP-assignment agreements before work begins.
