This #SalesCloud Implementation Guide is arranged in the order you will need it. I could follow this guide, step-by-step. #greenfield #growthmindset During a recent interview for a Senior Salesforce Consultant role, I was asked if I had experience with greenfield implementations. My response? “No… Well, very little. Some with Talent Stacker, but mostly on Trailhead.” My journey began as an in-house Salesforce Administrator, inheriting a 12+ year old org. When I joined, only one person before me was certified and they soon left. The longest tenure on the existing team was just 2-3 years. I’ve spent significant time replacing short-sighted solutions from previous IT teams, often dealing with “code not clicks” from the “dark ages.” Despite the challenges, I find great satisfaction in building systems that don’t require MacGyver-like modifications to fit into the existing custom code. Working in a brownfield environment is incredibly challenging, but it’s shaped my approach to my Salesforce solutions. I’m excited about future challenges and opportunities in other orgs to leverage my experience and create streamlined, scalable, and efficient systems.

☁️⛈️As a Salesforce Admin, managing multiple high-priority tasks is part of the job. However, there are times when our workload is at capacity, and we need to politely decline additional requests. Here are five ways to say no gracefully. ⛈️☁️ #salesforce #trailblazer #livelongandautomate

Last week I finalised the process for a business looking to hire a Lead Technical Architect. It was a tough search; with this being their first Salesforce hire, the business didn't know what good looked like, and it took months to find the right candidate. What was more interesting, was one of the key requirements was for the candidate to be onsite 3x a week, and the candidate that was successful hasn't been on the market since the 2022 surge of hiring, so he felt having this policy in today's day & age is slightly dated. As part of my job I had to consult him on the wider market landscape. Whilst most businesses shifted to a remote-first approach in 2021, nearly all have shifted right back, so this is very much 'normal' again. This had me thinking. Do you think we will see another global transition for the work force, like we did in 2020 when everything went remote-first? #salesforce #salesforceecosystem

I've spoken to about a dozen Salesforce Admins over the past week who've mentioned wanting to become a Salesforce Architect. So, I thought I'd offer some practical advice on how to get there based on what I typically look for when sourcing & screening for architect roles: 🖥 Deepen your Technical Expertise 🖥 While declarative skills are valuable, Apex proficiency is generally expected and necessary for most Salesforce Architect roles. 💙 Diversify your Salesforce Experience 💙 A seasoned architect should have hands-on experience with multiple Salesforce products. There are ways to do this without excessive "job-hopping." A stint at a Salesforce consulting partner allows you to solve a wide range of problems and get hands-on experience with more features and clouds. Or if you prefer working for in-house for an end user, look for an employer that uses multiple Salesforce clouds across several departments. 🗨 Build Soft Skills 💬 A Salesforce Architect needs to communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. A great way to practice: Explain to friends & family members outside of the tech world what you did in Salesforce that day. When you can explain a Flow to your Nana, you're ready for an interview! 🤔 Start Thinking Like an Architect 🤔 Whether or not a particular Salesforce Architect role has direct reports, you'll be viewed as a team leader. As an admin, you can start building those leadership skills by volunteering to mentor junior team members or taking the lead on projects that require more intricate problem-solving. 🏅 Pursue Advanced Certifications 🏅 I know, I know. Experience matters more! But it's an uphill battle for me to secure a first interview for you without the certifications to back you up. And if you approach studying with a true intention to learn rather than another bullet point on your resume, they'll help with all of the above. #salesforce #salesforcecareers #SalesforceArchitect #SalesforceAdmins #awesomeadmins
