Hi partners! It’s almost that time and soon all of you will be making the pilgrimage to San Francisco to be part of the largest cloud computing event. . .ok, you know where you’re going. But with so much happening, how can you make sense of it all? As a partner, how do you get the most out of your experience? Sure, you want to identify tons of new prospects, but you also want to nurture your existing customers, network with other partners, and pow-wow with industry leaders. Whew! OK – time to take a deep breath.

Our Partner Experience Team understands this, that’s why we created an exclusive resource for you on the partner portal to help you maximize your time and minimize your frustrations. With a detailed ‘Get Ready for Dreamforce’ video and helpful links, we will guide you through registration, enrolling in the best partner sessions (by role), joining the Partner Success Chatter group, attending the Partner Welcome address on Tuesday, locating the best party (hint: Temple, Thursday night), even how to find the Partner Lounge (hint #2: Expo Hall, booth #120). That’s right, I said a Partner Lounge, where you can sit back and relax, or chat with a Partner Program expert.

If you haven’t registered for Dreamforce yet, we might even be able to score you a discount for you or your customers (scroll to the bottom of the portal page, shhhh). Just go here (portal login required) – http://tinyurl.com/partnerforcedream. See you at Dreamforce ’11!
