The Challenge

A CRM that was slowing the business down.

Fodder Link, an Australian agribusiness supplying roughage to corporate and small-scale farms, was managing complex year-round supply agreements across the country. Their Zoho CRM — customised by a previous partner — was clunky and unsupported.

The internal team lacked the technical skills to troubleshoot or improve the system, and its inefficiencies were slowing down critical processes, including how quickly field inspection data could be fed back into the system and then to the sales team.

Every improvement took too long, and they didn't have anyone reliable to help them work through the issues. As Rachel Parker put it: "We're not IT people. We needed someone we could trust to help us improve how we get product to market."

The Solution

A rebuilt CRM, field tools, and a partner who stays.

CRM Rescue & Rebuild

Inherited a poorly configured system and transformed it into a streamlined platform the team actually uses.

Mobile Field Integration

Field inspection data captured via mobile app and pushed straight into the CRM for immediate sales team action.

5+ Applications Built

Multiple custom applications built and supported to extend the CRM's capabilities — with an ongoing partnership, not a one-off fix.

★★★★★

"Yash is fast, thorough, and takes the time to understand our business. He works with us to improve what we have, rather than just patching things."

★★★★★
