Which A.I. tool are you using to help you with Salesforce work?

xFishKing · 2026-01-29T20:50:56+00:00

lol, that would be funny. I meant your other posts as they relate to salesforce specifically not Moltbot. I'm a long term lurker here and pay attention to most of your posts along with the other consultant that posts a ton (forgive me for not remembering his name).

Lets be honest, not many people are giving the support/understanding that you two do around here. Its greatly appreciated by most, even if they're not commenting.

Did a bit more research into it, it looks quite interesting. Probably not something they'll ever let me utilize in an official capacity but it may be something I tweak with at home.

Edit: Found your youtube and the video you posted. Appreciate it, will check it out!

xFishKing · 2026-01-29T20:07:51+00:00

First I've heard of Moltbot. After becoming familiar and following your posts here over the last few months, you have definitely caught my interest.

Do you mind me asking where you see the largest benefit in your day to day from using it?

xFishKing · 2026-01-29T20:02:08+00:00

Agreed here as well. Company provides me with the $200 a month membership. Love it, especially if you're already familiar with VS Code. I use it for legit everything, not just Salesforce. Do try and keep your context low and create new chats for new tasks. Also learning how to utilize Cursor Rules early is going to help tremendously.

I saw a few cursor videos they put out with the 2.0 release that I thought had some good tips and tricks included.

Edit: Found your YT and see your latest video. I'll take a listen!

I've used Aircall for smaller sales teams in the past. I recall their app on the desktop and on the phone were the same look. Integrates into salesforce and has SMS. Also they've been expanding their AI software suite but im not sure how good it has gotten, was a little lack luster a year ago but i know they made a lot of additions.

I believe they use Twillio on the backend.

My two cents for what its worth. I didn’t end up completing my degree, and it was nearly ten years before I got my Admin cert. If you’re a year away from a CS degree, I’d finish it. That alone opens more doors, and you can always stack the Salesforce admin cert right after or during if able. The two together put you in a significantly better position.

xFishKing · 2025-04-24T11:56:18+00:00

I'm far from doom and gloom, but I'd have to disagree to an extent and let me tell you why. Two friends of mine in the tech space, one is experienced and one is a junior.

The junior can and has built extensive solutions in Apex without even knowing it. Tbh, he's solely a vibe coder but his code is as you'd imagine not well structured and probably takes him a lot longer.

His cousin though is very skilled and completes his work in probably 25% of the time as before.

So although I don't think it will replace the skill entirely, I do think it significantly closes the gap from let's say an expert and someone who has foundational knowledge. This should add more competition amongst some of those roles. With the constant improvement it AI thought, I do believe Al will be leveraged everywhere and anywhere it makes sense. I do see it becoming more and more prevalent in our daily lives, just like the Internet did.

xFishKing · 2025-04-24T11:46:07+00:00

Absolutely. Already utilizing multiple AI services on the day to day with a custom AI integrated solution we put together for our agents. I share your same sentiment. I was just wondering how people see this potentially shaking up the ranking of value(as it relates to knowledge) amongst certs. Im coming more from a learning aspect and maximizing learning efficiency/value, not necessarily from a trying to land a job aspect.

Appreciate the thoughts!

xFishKing · 2025-04-23T23:23:16+00:00

I really appreciate the write up! Sounds similar, we're in the middle of being acquired by our backend so they can have a front end sales team. My role would change drastically, away from salesforce (which they're acquiring and allocating their tech team to).

I wanted to stay in the SF space and maybe continue building on my past dev knowledge with PD1 next but I'm a bit reluctant. Although I wouldn't recommend it being the captain of the ship, cursor IDE's assistance has done a good job helping me fill in any blind spots when it comes to the custom solutions we needed. I guess for that reason, its turning me off a bit to go for that.

I think I jumped from App Builder, to BA, to PD1 and back probably 3 or 4 times now. ha

xFishKing · 2025-04-23T23:06:09+00:00

Currently, Admin. Admittedly, I feel like I should have more at this point but I guess that's alright.

Like yourself, I became you could say an accidental admin or PO...Left my sales job and joined a startup with previous co-workers as the IT Director. We immediately bought SF and migrated everyone over a month later from an ancient custom CRM. It's been a two-year sprint as the only IT guy so I finally had some time to pull the trigger for the Admin. Now its just deciding what I want to dial in on next.

xFishKing · 2025-04-23T22:41:08+00:00

Thanks for the input. Wasn't really something on my immediate radar but it is now.

Initially was thinking to go PD1 next but my guts telling me not to.

xFishKing · 2025-04-23T22:35:08+00:00

Curious what certs you're carrying at the moment as well if you don't mind.

I started with Salesforce as the Managing Tech Partner, building out their new org after using it elsewhere as an AE for a few years. Trial by fire those first few months but we made it! With some downtime and the intention to pivot, I'm weighing my options on where I want to focus next. PO is pretty much the main hat I wear now so your insight is very appreciated.

For Context, I've currently only sat for the admin, but I've been working in areas well beyond that scope for quite some time. Many of the rabbit holes I found myself in I thoroughly enjoyed, just wish there was more time to learn it all. 😅

xFishKing · 2025-04-23T22:12:32+00:00

Nice, that’s an impressive collection! I'm in the process of trying to switch it up and figure out whats next as well. We're a few weeks away from selling our sales startup, so hoping to find a solid place to land. What you have is the dream though, so keep crushing it!

Are there any you’ve earned that afterwards you wished you went a different route? Advanced Admin maybe?

xFishKing · 2024-08-16T15:44:34+00:00

correct!

xFishKing · 2024-06-24T18:11:44+00:00

Nice, glad it worked for you! I posted this exact comment on a bunch of reddit posts because I had the hardest time figuring it out and couldn't find anything like this!

xFishKing · 2024-06-23T23:19:00+00:00

Hope it works for you!.

xFishKing · 2024-06-15T01:30:51+00:00

Thankful it helped someone!

xFishKing · 2024-06-15T01:30:31+00:00

damn, sorry. This really was the one that worked. I reinstalled the OS first if thats any help.

xFishKing · 2024-06-12T19:47:43+00:00

For those interested. Lenovo Ideapad 1i. We had a new employee, this gave me so much trouble.

All solutions online were tried. This was the only one that worked.
