Expert Zoho Consultation Services to Optimise Your Business Performance

Ever watched a builder work on a house? They look at the job first. Then they pick the right tools. They know exactly what to do and when to do it. That’s what good Zoho consultation in Australia looks like.
Most Australian businesses have Zoho. They have good teams. But something isn’t working right. The systems don’t talk to each other. Simple tasks take too long. Reports show old news, not what’s coming next.
Does this sound like your business? You’re not alone. And you can fix it.
Why DIY Zoho Costs More Than You Think
Let’s be honest about something. That Zoho setup you built yourself? It might be costing you big time.
We helped a Brisbane company last year. They thought they saved money doing it themselves. After 12 months, they worked out the real cost. Their team spent 23 hours each week on work that should be automatic. They lost $47,000 in sales because leads got lost. Their team stopped trusting the system.
The boss told us: “We saved money on help but lost much more on lost time and sales.”
This isn’t about putting down DIY work. It’s about knowing when Zoho consultation stops being nice to have and becomes must have.
What Makes Smartmates Different
Most consultants start with software. They try to fit your business into it. We do it backwards. We start with your business. Then we make the software work for you.
How We Think About Consultation
Your Business Comes First
We learn your business before we touch Zoho. What makes you money? What wastes your time? What makes customers happy? What drives your team crazy?
We Know Australian Business
We get Australian business. GST isn’t hard for us. Multi-state work isn’t a problem. Remote teams are normal, not a headache.
We Stick Around
Quick fixes work for blocked drains. Not for business systems. We’re here for the long run. Your business grows, your systems grow with it.

How Expert Zoho Consultation Works
Step 1: Learning Your Business
We don’t just ask “tell us about your company.” We dig deep into how you work.
What we look at:
- How you make money
- How customers find and buy from you
- Where work gets stuck
- How your team works together
- What systems you use now
- Rules you have to follow
- Where you want to grow
Time needed: 2-3 weeks to get the full picture
What you get: Clear view of where you are and where you need to go
Step 2: Building Your Solution
This is where we shine. Anyone can set up Zoho. Not everyone can build something that changes your business.
Step 3: Making It Happen
No two businesses are the same. Your Zoho consultation should be different too.
How we do it:
- Roll out in stages so work doesn’t stop
- Train your team properly
- Move your data safely with no loss
- Connect to your other systems
- Watch how it works and make it better
- Support you as you grow
More Than Just Zoho
Our Zoho consultation is the best around. But sometimes the perfect answer uses more than one system.
Zoho Plus HubSpot
Sometimes mixing Zoho and HubSpot gives you the best of both worlds.
When mixing makes sense:
- Complex marketing needs
- Advanced sales tracking
- Detailed customer journeys
- Big company reporting needs
Custom Built Solutions
Standard setups handle most needs well. For special requirements, we build custom solutions.
Custom things we’ve built:
- Complex commission calculator
- Industry compliance tracker
- Advanced project planner
- Customer self-service portal

Common Zoho Consultation Myths
Myth 1: “Only big companies need consultation”
Truth: Small and medium businesses often benefit most because they can’t afford to make expensive mistakes.
Myth 2: “We can work it out ourselves”
Truth: You probably could. The question is should you spend your time on system setup when you could grow your business instead?
Myth 3: “Consultation costs too much”
Truth: Bad setup costs much more than good consultation. Lost productivity and missed opportunities add up fast.
Myth 4: “One approach works for everyone”
Truth: Every business is different. Generic approaches give generic results.
