Share Value
I’m a Salesforce architect who can connect with people, simplify the complex, and add value. I love to invest in people and share what I’ve learned.
Whether you’re looking for a podcast guest, Zoom presenter, conference speaker, article interview, or content contributor, let’s connect and see how I can help.
Experience
I’ve started my own companies and contributed to more than a thousand successful Salesforce projects. I’ve been a presenter, facilitator, moderator, and contributor to many events, webinars, and publications over the years, including Dreamforce, TechRepublic, MarketingSherpa, and others. You can read my bio for the full background.
Areas of expertise:
- Salesforce ecosystem and trends
- Common Salesforce mistakes and mitigation strategies
- Entrepreneurship and tech startups
- The priority of culture and values for high-performing teams
- Leveraging intrinsic “ice cream” and improving user experience
- Making work fun and meaningful
- Impacting communities like foster youth with Salesforce skills
Why Me?
- Effective: My style is disarming, humorous, and sincere, which allows me to address challenging topics while overcoming anxiety and allowing for change.
- Inspiration: Making real change is hard, but I can offer the inspiration that comes before the perspiration.
- ROI: Implementing changes to get the most out of CRM can have a huge impact on your bottom line—we’re talking ROI of $8.71 for every $1 spent.
Past Events & Publications
My long list of speaking gigs and published articles grew a bit out of date (“Email Marketing to BlackBerrys”?!) while I focused on raising my kids. But now that they’re older, I’m getting back out there and contributing again:
- Salesforce Trails & Trials: I co-host a regular podcast about Salesforce challenges and professional experiences.
- Bitwise: The Magic of Pardot for Salesforce
- CenCal Dreamin’: I Heart My CRM: Designing Pages, Forms, and Interactions for the Way People Really Work
- Technologist Podcast: Salesforce Configurations
Let’s Connect
Share your goals and I’ll get back to you to talk details. I may even include additional resources and introductions that add value to your project even if I can’t.
Jon is among the rare category of technology professionals that is able to translate complex ideas into plain English. He is equally well-equipped to think beyond the entrepreneur’s vision to identify implications, opportunities, and economies. Where many service providers in this category simply do what is assigned and provide a (shocking) bill for it, Jon helps his clients make good decisions. Collaborative, professional, fast, smart.
