Last position:

Project Manager at Payone GmbH (Worldline AG)

  • Goal/Motivation: PAYONE urgently needs a 360° view of its customers. So far, PAYONE has no overall master data strategy. It is not possible to identify customers across all relevant systems.

The organization is to be enabled to identify customers across all relevant systems. Creating the foundation for master data management at PAYONE

  • Challenge: Due to acquisitions, the system landscape is very heterogeneous. The company is very dynamic and burdened with many system harmonization and integration projects, so resource bottlenecks and changes in project priorities are again and again almost impossible to handle.

Due to BaFin findings, the project has a central task and role. The first focus is on migrating all customers from the master-data-leading backend systems with their AML/KYC data to Salesforce. This is intended to resolve one of the largest findings and establish the corresponding ODD/EDD processes.

In addition, customer data must be harmonized in Salesforce. Previous migrations led in some cases to duplicate customer records. In the end, only one customer should be maintained in Salesforce and, with the corresponding information from the backend systems, it should also be possible to recognize which products and in which processing systems the customer uses Payone services.

Project: ONE Customer

Budget: €1.5 million

Team: 10/30 employees (full-time/part-time); 4 vendors/providers

Integration: 8 (subsystems/interfaces)

Applications: Salesforce; SAP S4/HANA; custom developments

Tools: MS Office; Jira, Confluence, SharePoint

Methods: Hands-on; Agile (SAFe); Prince2

About the technology

CRM setup

Salesforce is the CRM platform many companies use to manage leads, accounts, opportunities, cases and customer service. Strong specialists turn business steps into clear objects, fields, rules and views. They help teams work from one source of truth instead of scattered spreadsheets and inboxes.

Core cloud tools

  • Sales Cloud for pipeline and account management
  • Service Cloud for support and case handling
  • Experience Cloud for customer and partner portals
  • Flow for automation and approvals
  • Lightning pages and components for the user interface

Custom work

Projects often need Apex, Lightning Web Components, validation rules and permission models that fit real company processes. Experienced professionals know when to use clicks and when code is the better choice. They keep changes stable, readable and easy to maintain after launch.

Integrations

Salesforce rarely runs alone. Companies bring in freelancers to connect ERP, marketing, billing, data warehouses and identity tools through APIs, middleware or event-based flows. MuleSoft often comes up in larger environments, along with careful work on data mapping, error handling and sync logic.

When to hire

Teams usually need outside help when an implementation slows down, a migration gets messy, or an existing org has grown hard to manage. Freelance expertise also helps with audits, release support, sandbox strategy, and cleanup after rushed admin work. A good specialist brings structure without adding noise.

What good looks like

  • Clean data model and sensible naming
  • Secure access rules and role design
  • Automation that is simple enough to support
  • Reports and dashboards people actually use
  • Documentation that explains decisions clearly

Strong Salesforce professionals understand how sales, service and operations work together. They question messy requirements, protect data quality and build for the next change, not only the current ticket.

Frequently asked questions

Not sure where to start with Salesforce? These answers cover the essentials.

A strong Salesforce specialist helps with CRM setup, automation, reporting, user permissions and process design. That can include Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Experience Cloud, flows, custom objects and integrations with other business systems. The goal is a setup that supports daily work instead of slowing it down.

Salesforce is usually chosen when a company needs deeper customization, more complex processes or a broader ecosystem. HubSpot is often simpler for smaller sales and marketing teams, while Microsoft Dynamics can fit organizations already centered on Microsoft tools. The right choice depends on process depth, integration needs and internal ownership.

A good Salesforce freelancer usually also understands business analysis, data quality, APIs and change management. For technical work, Apex, Lightning Web Components, SOQL, permissions and release management matter a lot. For admin-heavy work, Flow, reports and clean configuration are key.

A Salesforce project does not always need a deep technical specialist, but it does need someone who has already handled similar complexity. Simple admin cleanup may only require configuration and process knowledge, while integrations, migrations or custom apps need broader experience. The more systems and teams involved, the more important that becomes.

Yes, most Salesforce work can be done remotely because it lives in the cloud and can be reviewed through sandboxes, tickets and calls. On-site time can still help when workshops need fast decisions from sales, service or operations teams. Many companies use a mix of both.

Look for a Salesforce specialist who explains trade-offs clearly, asks about the business process first and avoids overcomplicating simple needs. Good signs are clean documentation, secure permission design, thoughtful automation and a clear plan for testing. Ask for examples that show how they handled data cleanup, integrations or a difficult rollout.

Before bringing in Salesforce help, prepare a short view of your current org, the systems that connect to it and the business problems you want solved. It also helps to list roles, users, reports and any broken automations. That gives the specialist enough context to make useful decisions quickly.

No, Salesforce is used well beyond sales. Service teams, operations, partner management and customer communities often rely on it too, especially with Service Cloud and Experience Cloud. The best setups connect these teams so they share the same customer data and process rules.

The average hourly rate of freelancers who have used Salesforce in their recent projects is 112 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 896 € based on an 8-hour working day.
