What’s included in the Salesforce Admin Enablement Kit?

We worked alongside you — our Salesforce Admin community — to develop the Salesforce Admin Enablement Kit. We listened to you and heard your feedback, and through this we learned that one of the key challenges you face is how to communicate more effectively with your stakeholders. We very much kept this in mind when designing the Salesforce Admin Enablement Kit, as we want to empower you to not only deliver success at your organization but also talk about the amazing value you contribute. Here’s what’s included in the kit.

  • A ready-to-go presentation deck — including example talking points and guiding notes to help you gain confidence
  • Four demo videos including click paths and talking points to help you get comfortable showcasing Salesforce products and features
  • One instructional video — an end-to-end video of a Salesforce expert presenting the deck, so that you can see it in action
  • Additional resources tips along the way to help you be a successful Salesforce Admin

Customize the Salesforce Admin Enablement Kit

One of the best things about the Salesforce Admin Enablement Kit is that it’s fully customizable and you can make it your own! Follow these three steps to customize it.

  • Define your audience — Think about who would benefit from hearing the content. Whether you want to talk to executives, new hires, or sales managers, the Salesforce Admin Enablement Kit has you covered.
  • Edit the slides for your audience — When customizing the presentation, you can take out the slides that aren’t relevant for your audience, modify the ones you want to present, or even add new ones. You can reference the speaker notes in the slides — they include not only suggested talking points but also additional guiding points to help you customize your presentation.
  • Determine when and how to present There’s no right or wrong way to use the Salesforce Admin Enablement Kit. How you want to use it is completely up to you. For example, you may want to set up a regular weekly or monthly meeting to onboard new users. You may also want to set up ad hoc meetings with executives, particular teams, or other stakeholders.
