Humans of Salesforce – Warren Walters

Warren Walters’ journey into the Salesforce realm began somewhat accidentally, through a college internship that seemed unremarkable at first. 

He quickly discovered the power and simplicity of the Salesforce platform. “I didn’t know anything about Salesforce at the time,” Warren recalls, “but that internship had me working on Salesforce, and that’s where I fell in love with the platform.” What truly inspired him was the platform’s intuitiveness, which allowed him to build, create, and solve business problems effortlessly.


Moments of Triumph 

Over a decade into his Salesforce career, now as a Salesforce MVP, Warren has accumulated countless experiences that fill him with pride. However, one type of feedback stands out significantly to him—comments from professionals on his YouTube videos, thanking him for making difficult Salesforce concepts easier to understand. 


“Even to this day, we still get comments on really old YouTube videos,” he shares. This ongoing impact propelled him to found Cloud Code Academy, where he focuses full-time on helping others master Salesforce development.

Why Salesforce is a Rewarding Career 

Warren passionately believes that a career in Salesforce is more than just lucrative—it offers a myriad of opportunities across various industries and roles. 


“The pay is really good and the barrier to entry is relatively low,” he explains. This accessibility, combined with the vast array of roles from admin to architect, makes Salesforce a field ripe with possibilities for growth and fulfillment.
