What do Salesforce Administrators & Professionals do? Salesforce Real World Series Video 1

[@garricklarocque4221]

Exactly what I was hoping to start seeing Brad. Trail head with its modules gives some insight, but it’s the day to day work and taskings from different types of employers in somewhat similar but different settings I think that can open our eyes to not only what we might possibly expect but to also show us things we probably never thought of. Being prepared and constantly learning never hurt anyone. I think it’s great.

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

I'm in complete agreeance with you here! I'm excited to get this content out for everyone!

[@patrickj.trevenen1633]

Very True, Yes, looking forward to the series. 😊😊😊😊😊

[@hiteshpatel528]

Wow! Brad. You reading New admins mind. you are taking us on the field without job. Looking forward to it. Thank you Brad being wonderful person out there of us.

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Thank you so much for the kind words. I try to put myself in your shoes, and working with 100s of members allows me a clear insight into what it is new Salesforce professionals struggle with. I also have insight into what employers are looking for. So in tools like the free 5 day challenge I do my best to show beginners what they need to know to feel confident while making them look great for employers at the same time! It how we get our members jobs day in and day out!

This is a really excellent overview of real world day-to-day types of tasks for those supporting Salesforce in any capacity and it is coming from an excellent source. There are tasks around ten topics. You don't have to be a master in every one of them if you are just starting out in Salesforce. It is great to have in mind as you go through your training. Good Luck.

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

I really appreciate the kind comment! Thanks for watching.

[@raygrizzle1268]

Great idea! I can't wait to see the rest of this series. I work with SF everyday as a user in my current job, and I'm currently in week 3 of the SFCDP. Some real world use cases will be extremely helpful.

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Absolutely! I'm looking forward to it! It's hard to pull the content together and of course keep client confidentiality but when it's done I love the end product and the value it brings!

[@aldrichabhishek6981]

Great information Brad 👍

[@shonuff8848]

Looking forward to this series. It is something aspiring SFDC professionals will find extremely helpful. Thanks in advance!

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

I really think so too. I'm hoping this will be a go to for aspiring SF pros. Be sure to share!

[@MintNHoney]

Good introductory video. I've had both Salesforce and Trailhead bookmarked for a while but it was only until last week, I decided to take a closer look at them. I'm in the research phase now--hence why I'm watching videos like yours as well as reading whatever i can--to see if this is the direction I want to take. I look forward to watching the rest of this series as well as other informative videos on your channel.

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Thanks for the comment! I would highly recommend listening to the Salesforce For Everyone podcast especially the first 8 episodes, those are excellent for research!

[@jeremyhostetter4723]

Thanks Brad! I feel this series will help ease the mind of someone transitioning into the field

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Yes I agree! It will give people considering a Salesforce career a clearer picture of some examples of what it's like. It will also help individuals really working to land their first job to see how Trailhead concepts come to life in reality!

[@optamisticlife9342]

Great insights!

[@khlfff2]

Awesome cant wait to see more!

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Excellent 👌 I'm pulling the content together this week and will have it ready for you guys next week. Looking like Thursday, if you sub it'll show up on your youtube home screen!

[@acdc73034]

Can’t wait for this series. Great job.

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Thanks so much! I'm excited about it too!

[@danielsbwebb]

This is gonna be really good ;) Nothing like a serious peek under the hood!

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Yeah I'm looking forward to these! Should make the transition into Salesforce roles at least slightly clearer.

[@marcosmarcal7200]

Hey man, thanks for this content! I was wonder start salesforce, it's a good idea at 2024?

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

We post our program statistics every month on the Talent Stacker LinkedIn Page. I'd recommend keeping an eye out there. The market is tighter in 2023 and 2024 than it as been since 2020 however we are seeing more success with jobs being landed with our members than ever before. I believe this is because those that stay focused right now are landing all of the jobs while others are looking around wondering what to do.

[@marcosmarcal7200]

@SalesforceForEveryone But you know why this is happening? It's about IA or something like that? Thanks for the answer!

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

@@marcosmarcal7200 Oh no, nothing to do with AI, AI has been a bust compared to what people expected at this point. It's mainly with super high interest rates, companies can't invest as much to expand right now. Consumers and companies are pinched for cash and have to make smarter choices with their hiring.

[@jinojoy2305]

Thank you Brad for everything that you do for aspiring SF professionals! Extremely excited for this series!

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

You are very welcome! I'm excited too! This is going to be fun. I am working on this over the weekend and will have the first deep dive live next week!

[@zaidelydickinson7746]

Thank you Brad for this video and the info that has opened my eyes in several aspects such as how role’s names could be different in different companies and how job seekers need to read the job description to understand what they are looking for. Looking forward to see this series 👍

[@mockdux]

These are so helpful to newcomers to the career path.

[@JackieKen162]

Great job Brad, very informative!

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Thanks Jackie! Trying to keep feeding more and more information out there for individuals to learn and grow in the Salesforce space!

[@txwolf9904]

I'm gonna need you to throw together all of these videos and push them out in the next 72 hours please. Thanks

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

I'll do my best 😂 I'll have to have you come on the channel and share your real world experience before long!

[@txwolf9904]

Just say when

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

@@txwolf9904 Oh yeah?! Alright cool, I'll send you a separate message and maybe we can make a plan for mid-May!

[@yissakb3044]

Hi Bradley, How does an Admin/Analyst be able to move up as a Salesforce Solution Architect?

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

A Solution Architect is commonly what consulting companies call their Administrators. It truly just comes with experience. You'll need to understand how to write Salesforce design documents and turn requirements into scalable solutions. Being an SA is about understanding how to leverage Salesforce to solve random business requirements. Bottom line is you need to work and challenge yourself for a solid year or two.

[@samtim4824]

Well done!

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Thank you I'm looking forward to the series and feedback!

[@joaquinurriza7180]

Hi Brad. I've been watching a few of your videos which they are relly helpfull. I just wanted to ask you one question. I've started learning Salesforce i couple of months back to start a carreer on it. I don't have prior experience on IT or any similar position as i come for a different area (mainly Supply Chain Management). My goal is to be a Salesforce Developer, but i was told to start with Salesforce Admin, which is quicker as i don´t necesarilly need to learn coding. At the moment i am follonwing the trailhead path for Admin Certification. do you recommend any of your videos for me to watch at this point prior to this series of videos? thanks. Joaquín.

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Hi there, thanks for your support and questions! I would highly recommend that you go ahead and grab the free resources at TalentStacker.com/ in the free resources tab. Also I think it would be a great idea to listen to the Salesforce For Everyone podcast! Especially the first date episodes are going to walk you through everything you need to know to land a Salesforce job. Lastly I just wanted to comment that I would agree that unless you come from a strong technical or coding background I would highly recommend starting with the administrator certification and looking for entry-level jobs as an analyst, administrator or junior consultant. That's going to make the transition much easier for you and reduce the chance of burnout.

[@joaquinurriza7180]

@@SalesforceForEveryone Thanks so much for the detailed response. I will look into all these things you mentioned. Many thanks.

[@dfrank2044]

Thanks

[@benhazel9431]

What kind of laptop I should have for learning SF Admin?

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

Really anything works, just don't get a Chromebook as it doesn't meet the requirements to take the certification exam. Honestly though any cheap computer will do if your on a budget. You just need internet and you're good to go!

[@benhazel9431]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@cornbreadpapi]

Probably unrelated, but do I need to get a salesforce admin certification ON TOP of getting a marketing cloud certification if I want to be in that field?

[@SalesforceForEveryone]

If you want to land a marketing cloud job then I would say you really just need the marketing specialist certification. If you want to land a salesforce job then you won't need any marketing certifications. I hope that answers your question!

[@eurogroup9618]

Hello,great video!For the peoples who live in USA but no work permit in USA,that peoples can find job as a salesforce person?I mean if they open company and giving servis as salesforce.Salary will go to company.Is any chance to get job in this way?
