If the current atmosphere of the world in general has taught me anything, it’s that there is no reason not to be incredibly self-indulgent with my blog posts. On the list of Things That Are Important to Sam, agonizing over whether or not the words that I publish in the growing void of the internetContinue reading “What I learned this week about: Late war German camo schemes”

What I learned this week about: Pardot Responsive Layouts
I built my first responsive email template in 2014 when I was just coming into the MOPs/Salesforce Admin portion of our programming and realized that my company’s marketing emails were NOT responsive. Me being me, I ended up sitting through a free webinar put on by Litmus to gain the basic understanding of how responsiveContinue reading “What I learned this week about: Pardot Responsive Layouts”
What I learned this week about Medieval dagger fighting
I’ll not get into why I needed to know this…just trust that it made sense at the time. And it wasn’t because I myself need to wield daggers. Fine. It’s because this year I am actually planning ahead of NaNo. I can’t say why. It went ok last year, when I had a flimsy sortContinue reading “What I learned this week about Medieval dagger fighting”
What I learned this week about Pardot Business Units
Okay, listen. I started out with Marketo. I cut my teeth with it, learned what marketing automation was, re-acquired some HTML and CSS skills to make email templates better, and I yelled a lot about how important it was for us to be segmenting our content. So much power. I say that because now IContinue reading “What I learned this week about Pardot Business Units”
What I learned this week: Providers & Self-Signed Certificates
I would say that about once a month I have a client or coworker sending me an email that looks like this and asking “what do I do?” I remember getting my first one of these and panicking, and the documentation available for admins with little knowledge of single sign-on is poor. I am prettyContinue reading “What I learned this week: Providers & Self-Signed Certificates”
What I learned this month: Adopting owned pets
In February we had crazy cold weather here in Michigan – not as bad as some places, but cold enough that when I looked outside one morning and saw a cat wandering through the snow, I knew I had to put something out for it. We found an old cat carrier downstairs, put some oldContinue reading “What I learned this month: Adopting owned pets”
What I learned this week: Airport Runway Capacity
Over the past year, I have flown to and from New York 7 times. That doesn’t seem like a very large number unless, like me, you prefer the comforts of home and Electric Hero subs from a few blocks away. Being in Grand Rapids, my direct flight options are a little bit limited. Specifically IContinue reading “What I learned this week: Airport Runway Capacity”
What I learned this week: Data Skew
Disclaimer: In the spirit of full transparency, I learned about data skew a little while ago. But the whole point is “what I learned this week.” In some cases, “this week,” just refers to this week in time…like…last week, last month, whatever. My first brush with NPSP was as a consultant. I remember very clearlyContinue reading “What I learned this week: Data Skew”
What I learned about this week: E3
Look at me, sticking with this idea of sharing the things I learn each….week….ish. And really, I’ve learned a lot this week. I’ve been studying for some exams, been setting up some new third party applications I haven’t used before. That’s cool. Know what’s even cooler? E3. E3 is infinitely cooler. To an extent, anyway.Continue reading “What I learned about this week: E3”
