What a year it was for Salesforce Admins! We debuted on Indeed.com’s Top Job List as the #4 tech job in the US. That means demand for people with Salesforce Admin skills is HIGH and employers see the value of those skills because they’re willing to pay significant salaries. Over the course of 12 months, 33 webinars, 89 blogs, and countless tweets; we loved seeing you learn, do well, and do good as you brought all your Awesome to life in your companies, careers, and communities.
As we head into an AHMMAAAAAZING 2018 (wait till you see what we have in store for you next), the team decided to take a look back and share our favorite moments with you!
“Teaching a GirlDevelopIt workshop in Los Angeles in February and meeting community members who went on to start the WIT LA group. Some of those amazing folks even turned into Dreamforce speakers! I also loved visiting our global community at Tahoe Dreamin’, Southeast Dreamin’, Midwest Dreamin’, WITness Success; teaching Lightning Now Tours in Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Jose, DC, Portland, Orange County; meeting and awarding a local #AwesomeAdmin at the World Tour in Toronto; and spending time with my local user groups in San Francisco and Marin.”
“Doing my first demo at NYC WT in a rainbow ? snowsuit with LeeAnne and catching up with Cheryl Feldman! It was a great day and a perfect start to working with this amazing team!”
“Two moments really stand out. First, creating the declarative content for the Lightning Now Tour and meeting so many admins who are inspired to lead their company to Lightning. And, being part of an all-lady keynote demo team for the Admin Keynote at Dreamforce.”
“On November 7 at Dreamforce when I met Christi Lopez from the Tampa area in Florida. Christi told me, “I got into Salesforce because of you. I read your blog 4 years ago and followed it ever since. I told myself ‘if he can do it, I can do it.’ Looking back it was such a pivotal moment in my life because now I’m a manager and I lead a team of Admins!”
I have to tell you, I was brought to tears.
I’m so excited to have Christi in our Admin Ohana and can’t wait to talk more with her as she plans to roll out Lightning early next year and “gets her hands on myTrailhead.”
“Experiencing my first Dreamforce. I know that’s not a single moment, but it was so many wonderful moments rolled together I can’t quite pick one that stands out above the others. The times I couldn’t stop smiling that week were: whenever I got to meet a member of our Admin Ohana in person and they would give me a giant hug, and when I watched my amazing team ROCK the stage during the Admin Keynote! I was (and continue to be) so inspired by #AwesomeAdmins everywhere!”
“Meeting some really #AwesomeAdmins and capturing their stories in Chicago after Midwest Dreamin for the Lightning Admin video shoot. You are so inspiring and it was an honor to record and share your story!”
