The World Tour comes but once a year, bringing with it a great number of seminars, demos, training sessions and tons of swag. However, with great choice comes great responsibility. How can you ensure that you get the most out of your day by choosing wisely between more than 100 sessions?
We’ve asked the Amicus team to share their picks to help guide you towards the best sessions for your areas of interest.
Jon Murphy – Strategic Account Director
I’m particularly looking forward to hearing about Salesforce’s recent acquisition of Datorama and what this means for seamlessly tying analytics into the platform ecosystem. Marketing Cloud is a powerful marketing automation platform and to have this tied in with some more advanced analytics than before will help even the most advanced customers find out how to get additional ROI from their marketing.
9.15am – 9.45am. Delivering Stronger Marketing ROI through the Datorama platform
Zi Lim – Solutions Architect
I’m torn between both of the below events:
Interaction Studio
This is one of the less commonly used Salesforce products. It can be quite complex, but has the potential to be extremely powerful. Features updates and client case studies that should to be very interesting.
3:00 p.m. – 3:40 p.m. Orchestrate an Omni-Channel Journey with Marketing Cloud Interaction Studio
Salesforce + Google
Google integration with SFMC is a long-awaited feature. We’re expecting to see some really cool interactions brought to life and to learn more about how we can help customers with Google Analytics achieve more within the Salesforce ecosystem.
3:15 p.m. – 3:45 p.m. Better Together: Salesforce + Google Marketing Platform
Dane Kloos – Social Specialist
It will be interesting how to learn how Victoria Police work to deal with the crisis moments that are somewhat inevitable with law enforcement.
I love the Victoria Police channels. With many positive stories being promoted by their social media teams I find their content acts as an antidote to the constant barrage of negative police related news items we typically see from broadcast news sources.
How Victoria Police Delivered Realtime Emergency Services By Social Listening – 4:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m.
Simon Gawn – Client Partner
I’m 3 weeks into working for a new company whose foundations are built on believing in the power and truth of data and proving our value through performance.
Interpreting validated data with statistical trends gives our clients peace of mind that they are making the right decisions. Einstein Analytics is at the forefront of doing this, making it a powerful tool that I want to make it my mission to know everything about.
Einstein Analytics: AI + Analytics for Every Business Process – 4:00 p.m. – 4:40 p.m.
Milo Li – Implementation Consultant
I’m really looking forward to hearing from Leah Pope at Datorama. I’ve just been through a training bootcamp on my journey to becoming a certified implementation partner of Datorama and I’ve been very impressed at each touchpoint along the way. They’ve executed very well on internal touchpoints and I’m excited to hear how I can apply this to help me deliver the best customer service as well. I think it would be very educational to hear her describe how to effectively deploy marketing strategies that generate maximal returns.
1:00 – 1:40 p.m. Marketing Cloud Keynote: Intelligent Marketing for the Empowered Consumer
Jessie Mitchell – Commercial & Client Service Director
Ron Kaufman, author, speaker & expert in Customer Experience will be one not to miss! He’s renowned for his point of view on ‘Service’, the notion of taking action to create value for someone else. This resonates really strongly for the culture we champion internally and how we collaborate with our Customers and Partners alike. There will definitely be takeaways for everyone from this talk, right down to your local barista!!!
1:00 – 1:40 p.m. – Guest Panel: Top Secrets for Driving a High Growth Organisation Level 1, Breakout D
Paul Hart – Advertising Technology Specialist
myTrailhead
I’m very interested to see how myTrailhead has developed. It promises to be an incredibly useful (and quite fun) way to upskill colleagues and clients on new processes, platforms and products. There are six items on the agenda around myTrailhead, which implies there will be quite a push by Salesforce to drive adoption this year.
Einstein
Secondly, I’m keen to find out more about Einstein. It’s popping up all across the Salesforce ecosystem and I feel that I don’t quite “get it” as well as I’d like. Seeing some applied examples should help clarify what exactly it can do and how it does it. There are five Einstein agenda items throughout the day, so I’m going to struggle find the time to catch up with my mate Cody this year.
You can find out more and sign up for Salesforce World Tour here.
Times and locations may change as we get closer to the event. Download the Salesforce Events app for iOS or Android to help plan your sessions throughout the day.
