A few months ago, I joined the Philadelphia Salesforce Marketer group. They were kind enough to send me an invitation to attend the Salesforce 2021 Connections conference watch party.
At the conference, Salesforce announced a marketer career path on Trailhead.
This announcement excited me.
Trailhead is a free online tool that teaches you how to transform your career in the Salesforce platform.
I was amazed at the different opportunities to use my HTML email development skills to advance my career with Salesforce Marketing Cloud.
I was hooked.
I was excited about the Salesforce announcement because the marketer career oath had two trails: Email Marketing Analyst and Email Marketing Manager.
I spent the next two weeks completing the Email Marketing Analyst trail. After that, I started looking into opportunities as an email developer using Salesforce Marketing Cloud.
Opportunities Galore
Lots of companies are seeking email developers with Salesforce Marketing Cloud experience.
After doing some research, I realized I wanted to take my email developer to the next level. So I was going all-in on Salesforce Marketing Cloud Email development.
There was one small problem!
I couldn’t get access to Salesforce Marketing Cloud to learn it. Trailhead was great, but I needed real-world experience with Salesforce Marketing Cloud.
Invest In Yourself
After much research, I came across the Supermums Marketing Cloud training course. Supermums has an excellent reputation and training partner with Salesforce.
Now, I had to make a decision.
Do I invest in myself or wait for a company to spend money to train me in Salesforce Marketing Cloud?
I’m not a businessman, I’m a business, man!

About 2 AM, I remembered a Jay-Z quote. I sign up for Supermums Marketing Cloud training course.
Luckily, I did sign-up because the course started the next day, and the next session was later in the year.
Final Thoughts
Over the next few months, I will be changing my blog to include HTML Email development using Salesforce Marketing Cloud. I will also be blogging about the Supermums course. I look forward to getting started and learning about Salesforce Marketing Cloud.
Thanks for listening,
