Hands-on Salesforce expertise for Nonprofit Cloud

Short-term, high-impact technical help for consulting partners and nonprofits who need guidance on Salesforce’s most complex platform components.

Hello!

I’m Laura Meerkatz, a Salesforce technical specialist with more than a decade of experience designing and delivering products for nonprofits. I’ve worked across the ecosystem — as a consultant, developer, architect, and product manager — and I know that even seasoned teams can hit a wall when faced with new technologies like Data Processing Engine, OmniStudio, and Industries Common Components.

That’s where I come in. I provide practical, hands-on expertise to help your team solve thorny technical problems, move past roadblocks, and deliver working solutions – without needing to hire a full-time architect or commit to a large engagement.

What I do

I partner with small consulting firms and nonprofit organizations to fill short-term technical gaps in their Salesforce projects. My work blends architecture and implementation, so we can quickly diagnose issues, build maintainable solutions, and leave your team more capable than before.

Areas of focus

  • Nonprofit Cloud onboarding and customization
  • Industries Common Components configuration including Data Processing Engine, OmniScript, and Actionable Relationship Center
  • Packaging, DevOps, and modular architecture for sustainable growth
  • Nonprofit Success Pack support and customization
  • Ad hoc code upgrades and isolated development projects

My approach

Every engagement starts with clarity – what you’re trying to achieve, what’s blocking you, and what “done” looks like. From there, I design a focused plan that balances deep technical fixes with simple, actionable steps your team can own going forward. My goal is to make complex Salesforce technology understandable, stable, and effective for the people who depend on it.
