Feeling the Monday blues? We get it! Salesforce implementations can be a marathon, not a sprint. But remember, every click, every field, brings you closer to success. Here's a little #Mondaymotivation to keep you going: "Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts." - Winston Churchill. Let's conquer this week together! #Salesforce #Implementation #MondayMotivation

Just like planning a holiday road trip, a Salesforce journey can either be smooth sailing or full of unexpected detours. The secret to staying on the highway? Strong partnerships! 🤝 Based on lessons from successful (and not-so-successful) projects, here are 3 key ingredients for partnership success: 1️⃣ Joint commitment – Align goals and build trust right from the start. 2️⃣ Effective communication & governance – Keep the conversation flowing and plans adaptable. 3️⃣ A strong team with technical & cultural fit – Because great results come from great people. As we head into the new year, it’s the perfect time to think about how strong partnerships can set you up for success in 2025 and beyond.

Fascinating. And lots of handy tips. I’ve seen a few successful ones for scale regular giving fundraising use cases. Some of the reasons are in the comments below. Although one isn’t - the depth of fundraising knowledge in your implementing partner.

Has anyone had a successful Salesforce implementation? Or one that would have been except for one thing? My definition of success is that there's no undercurrent of grumblings or a theme of "Salesforce isn't configured correctly" or "overpriced" I'll admit, I've only went through one implementation, and that was in 2010. It was so successful I reimplemented it a year later. Since then, I've come behind many implementations and have yet to encounter a happy story the first time around. I hear it every day on LinkedIn and Slack as well. So I'm curious, to hear your thoughts, if you rocked it out of the park, what did you all do differently? #salesforce #salesforcearchitects #salesforceadmins #businesssystems

The phrase "It's hard to learn consulting" makes me cringe. Consultants—Salesforce consultants included—often give people the ick. We are inundated with unethical news stories by just googling consulting scandals. Why? Personally, I think it's because of two main reasons: 1️⃣ The lack of long-term accountability for poor implementations. 2️⃣ Ignoring change management practices, which are critical for success. We tend to overlook the reality that more than 90% of problems in consulting aren't technological; they're human or psychological. 🧠 Misaligned expectations, poor communication, and a lack of understanding of specific industries are often the real culprits. How can you tell if your consultancy is in it for more than just your hard-earned money? Here are some red flags 🚩 and green lights ✅ to look out for: 1️⃣ Do they prioritize change management? 🛠️ Effective consultants know that implementing a tool is only part of the puzzle; guiding the people who use it is just as important. 2️⃣ Do they have a long-term strategy for your partnership? 🌱 Look for consultancies that offer ongoing Managed Services or plan for sustainable growth, not just a one-and-done project. 3️⃣ Do they challenge your ideas—or just agree with everything you say? 🤔 The best consultants will push back when necessary, ensuring the best outcomes for your business. (If they’re a yes-man to everything, run! 🏃♂️💨) And, for a bit of humor with a pinch of truth, here's a cautionary tale about consultants from a guy named Steve: https://lnkd.in/gJNXqbAR

As Sunday winds down, it’s a great moment to reflect and reset for the upcoming week! A great thing which Salesforce taught is that consistency and growth go hand in hand. Whether it’s mastering a new feature as per the Salesforce releases, whether its building innovative solutions based on business requirements, or tackling tough challenges in implementation, it all starts with small, steady steps and being consistent with it. Once you are consistent, growth happens. Let's welcome the upcoming week with focus and keep our learning hats on and embrace progress. #salesforce #salesforceohana #trailhead

Day 13 of #100DaysOfSalesforce Today was a lighter day, but I took the opportunity to broaden my understanding of Master-Detail Relationships: 1. Each custom object can have up to two Master-Detail Relationships and multiple Lookup Relationships. 2. You can convert a Master-Detail Relationship to a Lookup Relationship, as long as no Roll-Up Summary fields exist on the master object. 3. You can convert a Lookup Relationship to a Master-Detail Relationship, but only if the Lookup field on all records contains a value. #Salesforce #LearningSalesforce #Trailblazer #LearningJourney #100DaysOfSalesforce
