…a trailblazer story…
As a consultant, you get a lot of weird requests that make you scratch your head and wonder "can I really do this with Salesforce", and sometimes even "why the F would they want to do that, that's ridiculous. Why did you bother signing up for Salesforce, go use Dynamics in DSL traffic or something".... Continue Reading →
I received an email this morning regarding some major changes announced for #Salesforce CPQ. Previously, all package updates were to be manually downloaded from their page (and there were a LOT of them). Starting with the Summer 18 release, Salesforce CPQ will begin the rollout. This is a good....and bad thing. As all CPQ admins... Continue Reading →
First and foremost, I haven't written a solid post in close to 3-4 months. Crazy, right? The time off from the blog wasn't intentional, but with how busy things got, it was close to impossible to focus on the blog. But instead of just catching up with what happened in the last few months, i've... Continue Reading →
A few weeks ago I posted about things that are happening Soon™ and that I would have a few announcements later that week. Well, I didn't post because...reasons. That's a good enough excuse, right?

When I hear "Salesforce", my first instinct isn't to think of objects, formulas, or automation. It's the commmunity, the Ohana. I, like many others wouldn't be where I am today without our adopted Salesforce family that spans across the globe, breaking down barriers where they may exist in other industries. My first Salesforce "event" ever was... Continue Reading →

Couldn't help but share that all of the hands on experience, frustration, crying, drinking, and studying paid off. Passed the CPQ Specialist exam today!!! What a crazy experience though. I was nearly hyperventilating in my car because I was psyching myself out. I've only chatted with 4 people that have taken this exam, 2 failed... Continue Reading →
