Editor's Notes

  • #2: Hi Good Afternoon, we are very excited to be here in in-front of the fresh minds of tomorrow, in SNS college. I will start with an short intro, I am so and so, co-founder @ Fingertipplus Technologies and co-organizer of Coimbatore salesforce developer group. Having around 6+ years of experience in IT, started as dot net developer and then moved to android development and then finally to Salesforce.com. Its been last 4+ years that I am working on Salesforce.com platform. Many of you will have a question, who we are? Why we have come to an engineering college and talk about salesforce? We are from Coimbatore Salesforce DUG, and our twitter handle is @sfdgcbe. Going forward, we will be in and around Coimbatore and will be conducting events once in a month or 2 months. This is our first event.
  • #4: Who we are? Why we are? What we do?
  • #5: If you like to contact us, then you could always and here is our contact details, so for Coimbatore salesforce developer group we have a twitter handle etc…
  • #6: If you ever think of joining our team, you are most welcome. We are going to be in and around Coimbatore for conducting events, so if you think of having more exposure towards salesforce platform by being part of our team, then you are most welcome. You could join us as Volunteer, or if you are good at technical topics related to salesforce and wanted to share, then you could be a speaker and also, you could join as co-organizer of the group wherein you will have more exposure towards other aspects to run and event.
  • #8: Here is the future looking statement, which you will be seeing in all the presentation from salesforce. We are not going to go through it but it says that the presentation might have features might be coming in future, but make your decision based on what we right now with the platform.
  • #10: Before jumping into Salesforce.com, I want to talk about the popular term Cloud Computing? Hope someone can help me with answering what is cloud computing? Cloud computing is a general term for the delivery of “hosted services over the internet” Cloud computing enables companies to consume a compute resource, such as a virtual machine (VMs), storage or an application, as a utility -- just like electricity -- rather than having to build and maintain computing infrastructures in house. Cloud computing boasts several attractive benefits for businesses and end users. Three of the main benefits of cloud computing are: Virtual, On Demand, Subscription Style, Web based, Offsite Here is the 3 layers of Cloud computing – IAAS, PAAS, SAAS We will look into this layers in the next slide but I just wanted to emphasise that salesforce is under SAAS, and also you could notice force.com under PAAS IAAS - Amazon Web Services, GoGrid, Rackspace PAAS - Force.com, Heroku, Google AppEngine, Microsoft Azure SAAS - Salesforce.com, Google Apps, Microsoft Office 365
  • #11: Here is the detailed description about the SAAS, PAAS, IAAS and our traditional way of hosting as on premise. SAAS -> Gmail, Salesforce PAAS -> force.com, Windows Azure IAAS ->Amazon Web Services, GoGrid, Rackspace
  • #12: CRM Broadly defined, CRM is a strategy for managing a company’s interactions with clients and sales prospects and ensuring the ‘Connect’ sustains throughout the relation. It is a widely-implemented strategy for managing a company’s interactions with customers, clients and sales prospects. It involves using technology to organize, automate, and synchronize business processes—principally sales activities, but also those for marketing, customer service, and technical support The overall goals are to find, attract, and win new clients, nurture and retain those the company already has, entice former clients back into the fold, and reduce the costs of marketing and client service Purpose: Retain existing clients Energize dormant accounts / clients Find new clients Examples New launch offers from your beloved cosmetics brand Supermarkets / Retail brands giving out specific deals to customers Sales team always had data on what is selling and who is buying. Then why is it that CRM has become so important in the current world? Lack of timely data and fragmented systems meant unused data Companies were worried about getting their house in order
  • #13: Founded in 1999 by former Oracle executive Marc Benioff, Parker Harris, Dave Moellenhoff, and Frank Dominguez as a company specializing in software as a service (SaaS) Salesforce.com Inc. is a global enterprise software company headquartered in San Francisco, California, United States.
