    I am currently living in a shelter with my child, battling cancer and currently enrolled in the Salesforce Administrator certification course. I can't wait to be able to reach my dream of owning my very own business and to provide a home for my child. Thank you for sharing your story. I am so proud of you.

    Just saw your salesforce admin course on Udemy. I have to wait until the $10 sale comes up unfortunately, but I can't wait to take it and get into a career doing something extraordinary.

      @@RapidReskill Hi Mike, I would like to take your courses on Udemy. I tried using the link above, hesitated a bit by pressing back on my browser then forward. Now Udemy is trying to get me to pay $159 per course instead of about $16. I selected 3 courses so the amount is about $600. Please is there a way to fix this. Thank you.

    All I hear on the internet is that anyone who is training for administrator jobs has missed the boat and the job opportunities are drying up. Is that true?

    • @RapidReskill
      @RapidReskill  3 роки тому +1

      Not true. Salesforce’s revenue grew 26 percent, year over year, despite the pandemic. Demand for Salesforce talent continues to outpace supply.

    I started learning Salesforce 6 months back and finally got the Admin certification Nov 2019. I have no job and looking very actively for one. If someone can really help me, please, it will be a great favor. I am in Raleigh, NC.

      I found that have a specific goal in mind helped me to stay focused and to direct my studies. My goal when I was starting was a certification, and this was before Trailhead existed. Are you considering getting certified, and if so, which certification are you targeting?

      Mike Wheeler Media I’m targeting the ADM 201. I must admit that I am scared and don’t know exactly how to go forward or if I can get a job.
      I graduated college JACKSONVILLE State student athlete in 2018 and can’t get a job. A mentor told me about sales force and I just got started. Now I’m at a hard point. Looking for guidance to certification and career. 24 years old and want it.

      @@joelmccandless2923 thanks for sharing your journey. There are a lot of options as far as career paths and the Admin cert is a great starting point. I'd recommend that you check out my free 2-hour Salesforce Career Paths course here - courses.mikewheelermedia.com/salesforce-career-paths and then work through my Lightning Admin Certification course series to help with attaining that certification. Once you have that one, figure out which one you want to target after that and here's an article I wrote related to certifications and which ones are most marketable to Salesforce Partner companies - mikewheelermedia.com/charting-your-salesforce-certification-path/ - Good luck!

    What’s your honest opinion on the future of Salesforce ? Do you think they will be a dominant cloud CRM company if not THE #1 company?

    • @RapidReskill
      @RapidReskill  5 років тому +1

      Anthony Hosea they are the number 1 CRM company now. As to their future - I cannot predict the future but it definitely appears bright for Salesforce. I doubt they would ever overtake Google or Amazon as far as household names.
