The first woman in the “5 Certs in 6 Weeks Club!”

David’s note: There were just four people in the “5 Certs in 6 Weeks Club” before you joined. Two became Salesforce MVPs and one got a job at Google, to name just some of the success that followed. I can’t help but think you will achieve massive success too! Welcome to the club Richi and congratulations on becoming to first woman to join!

Hi David,

Adam Olshansky, Mayank Srivastava, Jeremiah Kofi, and Mike Fuchs’s success inspired me!

Here’s my story –

The positive side of Covid-19 and working from home was the time I gained not commuting to and from work. I decided to devote this time towards achieving my 2020 goal of getting Salesforce certified.

I’ve been working on the platform for nearly 5 years now through the various jobs held, where I got to learn and work with mature organizations that required lots of organization specific customizations. 50+ hour work weeks, working on and learning more on the platform, while useful, didn’t allow me to learn the theoretical & generic aspects of Salesforce that I believed future employers would like. Thus I had decided to get Salesforce certified. I knew employers will definitely appreciate knowing that I’m officially certified by the very company they’re purchasing products from!

I started my research to get certified and very quickly came across the gold mine you’ve created with SFDC99.com, where I came across the success stories of Adam, Mayank, Jeremiah and Mike.

My initial 2020 goal was to get 2 Salesforce Certs. (Admin and Advanced Admin). However, as Success inspires Success, I decided to go above and beyond my original goal and have now joined the 5 Certs in 6 Weeks Club! I want to thank you for inspiring me.

When preparing for each certification, Trailhead, Quizlet and SFDC99.com were my go-to resources. I have curated and noted new insights for future projects for personal use. I know it takes a lot to build content, especially that which can help a large number of people. Thank you for working hard to give back to the community. It is much appreciated.

Looking forward to doing <<insert awesome crazy objective here>> and sharing that success story with you and your readers in the near future.

Best,
Richi Baidwan
