LET’S CATCH PLAY CATCH UP

I took the Supermums Salesforce Marketing Cloud course in June 2021. I completed the course in October 2021

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

This is just my opinion. I believe someone with six months of experience working as an email developer will benefit from this course.

Why do I say six months experience? With six months of experience, you should know email marketing terminology and an email automation system.

INSTRUCTOR

In my previous post, I mentioned Vicky, the instructor for the course.

Vicky brought a ton of real-world experience that you can only get from working with Salesforce Marketing Cloud. The little tidbits that she taught me helped me in my first week as a Salesforce Email Developer.

Supermums picked a winner when they hired Vicky as an instructor.

CLASS

I missed several weeks of the class due to health and work-related reasons.

Supermums provides a recording of the live classes. Vicky, the instructor, is a mind reader, and she answered my questions even though I wasn’t in the live class.

CERTIFICATION

The Supermums course does prepare you for the Salesforce Marketing Cloud Email Specialist exam that I will be taking in February 2022. I also received a discounted code for the exam.

BONUS

One of the main reasons to take the Supermums course is a hands-on experience with Salesforce Marketing Cloud, and Trailhead does NOT offer you access to Salesforce Marketing Cloud.

Hands-on access to Salesforce Marketing Cloud makes this course so unique.

Side Note: The only way to access the Salesforce Marketing Cloud instance is to be a paying customer or through Salesforce Authorized Training Provider like Supermums.

AFTER COMPLETING THE COURSE

In December 2021, I was laid off.

When I updated my LinkedIn profile and resume, I was bombarded with interview requests with my newfound Salesforce Marketing Cloud knowledge. The Supermums course was the reason I received so many requests for interviews.

I received multiple job offers. I eventually accepted an offer as a Salesforce Email Developer in January 2022 with a 23% salary increase from my previous position.

Side Note: I have two years of experience as an email developer.

FINAL THOUGHTS

If you want to move into Salesforce Marketing Cloud, I highly recommend the Supermums Salesforce Marketing Cloud course.

Supermums is definitely a winner in my book.

If you never heard of Supermums, check out their website https://supermums.org/ to learn more information. Supermums is an authorized Salesforce training partner, which is one of the reasons I signed up for their Salesforce Marketing Cloud course.

Side Note: Many companies offering Salesforce Marketing Cloud Training are not Salesforce Authorized Training Partners. Having that Salesforce Authorized Training Partner stamp makes a huge difference, in my opinion.

The Instructor

My instructor’s name is Vicki.

She is a marketing pro with tons of experience. She has explained the ins and out of Salesforce Marketing Cloud and offering tons of tidbits that only someone with hands-on experience with Salesforce Marketing Cloud would know.

A lot of the advice during class has helped during my interviews for an Email Developer role requiring experience with Salesforce Marketing Cloud.

The Class

The class meets virtually, and the recording are posted within a few hours so that you can watch the replay. Due to life, I’ve watched half of the classes on replay.

The live classes were awesome.

Each class tackles a part of Salesforce Marketing Cloud that you be expected to know as an Email Marketing Specialist. The classes build on top of one another. So, suppose you do not have a marketing background like me. In that case, you will definitely better understand email marketing and marketing in general.

My classmates are great, and you don’t have to be a mom or dad to attend the class.

My Thoughts So Far

Taking the Supermums Marketing Cloud course, the biggest financial investments that I made in my developer journey.

Investing in myself has paid off nicely.

I watched two of my classmates pass their Salesforce Marketing Cloud Email Specialist exams. That gives me confidence because I take my exam at the end of September.

I am getting more calls for Salesforce Marketing Cloud email developer roles, which offer a higher pay rate.

The Supermums course is a win for me.
