How much does Salesforce consulting cost for a small business?
It depends on scope, so you get a written scope and quote before work starts, and the first call is free. As a guide, a Salesforce health check typically costs $2,500–$6,000 and takes 5–10 business days — the least expensive way to find out what's wrong. A full implementation or re-implementation typically costs $15,000–$60,000 and takes 4–12 weeks.
Do you work with businesses outside Chicago?
Yes. We're based in Chicago and work on-site across the city and the North Shore, including Evanston, Wilmette, Glenview, Northbrook, Lincolnwood, Niles and Morton Grove. Most of our work can also be done remotely, so clients anywhere in the US are welcome.
How long does it take to build a website or app?
A marketing website usually takes 2–4 weeks and typically costs $5,000–$20,000. A web app, customer portal, internal tool or iOS app usually takes 4–8 weeks and typically starts from about $25,000. We agree on scope and milestones in writing first, and you see working builds along the way. Timelines are estimates and subject to change based on scope.
What apps has 312 IT Consulting built?
Our own products include Bosanski, a Bosnian-learning app for iPhone and the web; 312 Scheduling, with Sofia, an AI voice receptionist for barbershops and salons; Slate CRM for proposals, e-signature and invoicing; Zenan Fleet for small trucking operators; and RadTrack for X-ray techs. The same team builds websites and apps for clients.
What does AI training for a team include?
Hands-on workshops built around each role's actual work, plus an AI acceptable-use policy and shared prompt standards. Workshops run 2–3 hours per group, a single on-site workshop for up to about 15 people typically starts from about $2,500, and a full team rollout takes 1–4 weeks. If it helps, we also build copilots, agents or voice agents for real workflows — like Sofia, the AI receptionist in our own 312 Scheduling product. Timelines are estimates and subject to change based on scope.
Who owns the code?
You do. The websites, apps, integrations and Salesforce configuration we build for you belong to your business, along with the accounts and documentation needed to run them without us.
What is fractional-CTO style IT strategy?
It's senior technology leadership without a full-time hire. We build your technology roadmap, help choose vendors and software, set a budget and a security baseline, and stay on call as your advisor while you carry it out. A written roadmap usually takes 2–3 weeks, and ongoing fractional-CTO advisory is a flat monthly retainer, typically $2,000–$6,000 a month. Timelines are estimates and subject to change based on scope.
