Why I joined Supermums Marketing Cloud course?

Posted on July 6, 2021November 11, 2024 by Ivan Hurt

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!

Jay-Z

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,
