6. Boston’s #SalesforceSaturday Testimonials
“As someone who is just starting on the Salesforce Journey, it's nice to meet other people in the
community and see that there are so many resources in the community.
I usually go and continue to work on my Trailhead modules and if I have a question, I can
probably just ask the person sitting next to me any questions I have.”
