Cloud Co-Op is helping Salesforce customers reduce implementation and development costs, establish governance controls, increase user adoption and develop growth strategies.
As a united group, the businesses that are a part of Cloud Co-Op have the resources to compete for your business.
To support fellow veterans, after they complete Salesforce Certification training we place them into our VETS2CLOUD apprenticeship program. During the first year Veterans are mentored and taught the values of becoming Salesforce Consultants with real world business experiences performing our CloudStart Implementations for the ESB and SMB clients and supporting our CloudStart Concierge service handling custom requests. During this time they are challenged to obtain advanced certification while working towards a Sr. Consultant position in years 2 and 3. enabling them to cover more business needs from our clients.
Our Salesforce Leadership and Advisory Team brings years of proven success within the Salesforce ecosystem and corporate establishments.
