How to Specialize and Find Your Niche in the Salesforce Ecosystem????✅

From consultants to architects, there are numerous roles to choose from. However, with the variety of products that make up Salesforce's offerings, there is an opportunity to specialize and deliver specific products, which will enable you to develop niche expertise and stand out in a competitive market.

How to find your niche

1. Put Yourself First: Identify what you want to do in your career and the impact you want to have. Ask yourself what you're passionate about and what industry you want to work in. Do you want to work with non-profit organizations or in the financial services industry?

2. Do Your Research: Once you've identified the industry you wish to work in, research the market to find out what Salesforce products are used primarily in that space. Determine what products are in demand and read case studies online. Research the product specifications, and they'll often refer to industries where implementation of this product is more common. Your network is an excellent resource to tap into.

3. Up-Skill: Salesforce offers numerous ways to upskill and develop yourself in the ecosystem. Trailhead, certifications, and hands-on exposure to projects are just a few examples. Push for project experience because the skills and knowledge you gain working on a live org implementation are more transferable in the working world. If project experience is not an option, learn as much as you can about your product and push to get a certification.

4. Find That Role: When your confidence in your niche matches your confidence in the core products, it's time to take that new skill to market. Finding the appropriate company to continue developing your specialisation in that niche and delivering the changes you wish to make in your industry of choice is crucial.
