#Discount Voucher27 personnes en discutent

Hi @Stella S,  

you will not find shared vouchers in this Community.   

However, there are several possible ways for you to try to get vouchers :  

take monthly trailhead quests to try to win gifts/swags and even vouchers : 

https://trailhead.salesforce.com/quests

attend Salesforce related events, or user community events, in your area ; there could be vouchers to win too : 

https://trailhead.salesforce.com/community/conferences/ & https://trailblazercommunitygroups.com/?&utm_source=trailhead&utm_medium=web-banner&utm_campaign=community_groups

if your company is Salesforce partner, you may have free vouchers (or discounted ones) according to your partnership level. See with your Salesforce's Partner Account Manager, or the person in charge in your company. 

Good luck for your certification exam preparation !

Hey Shiva, 

Good news — your background actually maps really well onto Business Analyst or Consultant paths, more so than a pure developer track. Inside sales experience gives you something a lot of career-switchers lack: you already understand sales process, pipeline management, and customer conversations, which is exactly the domain knowledge BAs and Consultants need to translate business requirements into Salesforce config. 

BA vs. Consultant — which fits better? 

- Business Analyst: More requirements-gathering, process mapping, and translating stakeholder needs into specs for developers/admins to build. Less hands-on configuration, more documentation and facilitation. 

- Consultant: A blend of BA + Admin skills — you gather requirements AND build the solution (Flows, automation, reports, security model). More client-facing, especially at partner/SI firms. 

Given you already have Admin + Apex training, Consultant is probably the more natural fit — you already have (or are close to having) the technical foundation, and your inside sales background gives you the client-facing communication skills consultants need daily. 

Certification path I'd suggest, in order: 

1. Salesforce Certified Administrator — get this certified now since you've already trained for it; don't let it sit uncertified, it's often the first filter recruiters/hiring managers check. 

2. Salesforce Certified Sales Cloud Consultant — this is the highest-leverage cert for your background specifically, since it's built around exactly the domain you already know (leads, opportunities, sales process) and is heavily favored for BA/Consultant roles at partner firms. 

3. Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — solidifies the "build" side (Flow, data model, UI) that complements the consulting cert. 

Apex/Platform Developer I certs are useful long-term but aren't the priority for a BA/Consultant path — that's more for the pure development track. I'd deprioritize finishing that unless you specifically want to keep dev skills as a differentiator. 

Learning resources: 

- Trailhead's "Business Analyst" and "Consultant" trailmixes specifically (search Trailhead for these career-track trailmixes — they're curated for exactly this transition) 

- Salesforce Ben's blog has strong BA/Consultant career-transition content specifically for people coming from sales/business backgrounds 

- Join local Salesforce Saturday or community meetup groups — a lot of BA/Consultant hiring at smaller partner firms happens through community networking rather than job boards 

Practical next step: get your Admin cert done first (momentum matters), then start the Sales Cloud Consultant material since it'll feel very natural given your sales background — that combo (Admin + Sales Cloud Consultant) is a strong, realistic first resume for BA/Consultant roles at implementation partners.

I'm currently plan to schedule a Platform Developer Certification Exam.    

Hoping to get a Voucher before registration. Many thanks if you could share a free or discount vouchers.
