It’s that time of year again. As #SalesforceOhana, you know that I’m referring to Dreamforce 2019! It will be my 3rd visit to Dreamforce, and I am especially excited about San Fransico weather, Fleetwood Mac, and all of the sessions.
With all the action at Dreamforce across the city, it’s easy to get distracted. I like to make a loose agenda to get the most out of my time there. This year on my agenda are mostly sessions about Field Service Lightning, Salesforce CPQ, Pardot, and Einstein Analytics. Here are the sessions I’m most looking forward to – Hope to see you there!

Dreamforce 2019 takes place on November 19-22, 2019. There are over 2,700 sessions that are all given by folks like you and me – consultants and end-users. So my best piece of advice for first-time attendees is don’t try to attend every single session, and make sure to have some downtime between sessions. Enjoy San Francisco!
