Well, I have a job! It's a contract job helping a small business revamp their Salesforce Organization (~35 users). Being an Administrator is everything I hoped it would be. Right now I am doing mostly process mapping, and planning improvements.
I have done some user support issues. I will say that while the certification helps with addressing the problems, but nothing beats experience. To be a contractor I had to start an LLC (KGForce, LLC). That has been a lot of work; nothing too hard, just time consuming. Once I catch up with all the paperwork, it should be smooth sailing. I do have an accountant who is helping with a lot of the tax paperwork, and I went through an online provider for the filing documents.
I have a website that is in-progress, and I am going to write another six sigma article for Linked In. I will use that platform for business marketing and the blog for career updates. I will link the blog to the website and post both the Linked In and blog entries on the there. For now, I suppose if the blog hurts the business, I may have to rethink the approach, or I may blog about more business issues and fewer career issues. It is a good outlet for my creativity.
Fun times ahead! For those that celebrate, Happy Thanksgiving...gobble, gobble...
