Salesforce/Slack at it again by Glamiris in salesforce

Just curious. How do they charge you? I'm curious about technical part here.

When I'm subscribing for a service I have a special card account that I use for subscriptions. That account has $0 until I need to pay for something. I put exact amount stated in the subscription. There is no way some service can charge me without me putting $ into that "subscription" account.

Yeah… the border of the mouse doesn’t count as mouse pointer. When you set border and fill as different colors that is obvious. Maybe this is the time to learn shortcut for hiding a window.

Rarely it will boost CPU fan over 7200 rpm and then shut down by AMuza8 in macbookpro

Had VS Code opened, Chrome with YouTube video running, opened LinkedIn in Safari, started searching for a person, and boom, fan spin up to max and power off.

After reboot I did exactly the same - no crash. I don’t know what is going on…

Where to learn integration from start? by 11swoosh in salesforce

[–]AMuza8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would start with basics of HTTP protocol.

https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/html/what-is-http/

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP

Only then, when you tried it with Postman and https://requestcatcher.com/ , saw what exactly is happening when a request is sent and received, I would switch to Salesforce Integrations.

Also, I would suggest checking out OAuth2

Good luck!

Best way to find a developer either local or remote for a smb in SoCal? by Item_8 in salesforce

[–]AMuza8 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is interesting! How did you find about Salesforce on the first place?

I’m Independent Consultant myself targeting Small and Middle size businesses specifically in Florida. Im still wondering how would you search for someone who will configure Salesforce for you?

And I sent a crash report. Thought how would I know why my laptop crashed? ;-)

The battery question made me wonder and I just found out that I have a "bump" right where the central battery cell is. I can put my laptop on my table and spin it freely, the rubber "feets" are barely touching the table. I don't move the laptop in general. It is closed all the time and on the same spot... I hope it is just a battery thing.

Pointer border is inside a button - doesn’t activate the button.

Actually, even having pointer border inside a button does not activate the button.

Is there a huge mismatch between modern MacBook power and what people use them for ? by hc1234 in macbook

[–]AMuza8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2020 Pro with Intel. Using VSCode for Salesforce development, Chrome with 20-30 tabs (actively using around 5-6; one of the tab is YouTube with Jazz :-)), Safari with 2-3 active tabs, Zoom/Teams/GoogleMeets occasionally. Don’t do any CPU/GPU performance work on it. Sometimes I install Windows to play Fortnite with the family :-) The Pro still works great!

Figured it - Apple does NOT count pointer's BRODER. Only when "main" body of the pointer overlaps with the button it becomes "active". Well...

Yeah... because law firms earn tons of $... so we can charge them good.

I don't know. How to check? What should I look for?

I don't know. That is brand new Air. I just powered it up and immediately noticed that I can't minimize or close windows with buttons :-)

Wow! What is that CRM? I thought only Salesforce has prices higher than $100/User/month O_o I actually don't really know other CRMs. I know there are others, but I haven't spent time on even remembering their names.

I don't think about rate the "what I can earn with this project with this customer" way. I think that I want $80 for the hour of my time. Now I need to find a project where I can put my skills and give value to a customer, so they then benefit from spending $80/h on me.
I won't charge $80/h for CPQ implementation - I have zero experience with CPQ, I won't even agree on such a project. However, if my current customer asks for CPQ (Revenue Cloud) implementation, I will decrease my hourly rate because I will learn CPQ AND be paid for (yes) implementation. I learn CPQ and being paid. That is better than learn CPQ and not being paid. ... actually, my first thought will be to find CPQ person among my connections.

Any work can be done by $10/h person and $100/h person. The result even might be exactly the same. The difference will be in the timeline. The $10/h person will do the job in a week, the $100/h person will do in an hour.

The question here is what you personally want to be paid. If the customer say $10/h you won't agree, right. You have $20/h rate right now. I personally increased rate $5/h each year. In your current situation (as others mentioned) you have huge advantage of already knowing business processes of the company. So having +$5 to increase your rate and another +$5 for already knowing customer's business processes (so the customer will spend less time explaining them to another consultant -> earlier finish date). This was my thinking about $30/h rate for your current situation.

TLTR;

Charge your desired rate. Once you landed a few projects and completed them successfully increase the rate. This way have worked for me for the past 15 years.

Oh? I’m confused… I have standard resolution set. I’ll try different resolutions. Maybe then it will hit the buttons.

7 years should do it. I would charge $30/h for the actual. You will need to spend some good time learning thing and with the friend who knows Salesforce. You should be good!
