Please join use Thursday Oct 8 for an informative training program on Winter '10.

We'll be meeting in Omaha and InfoUSA has graciously donated the use of their meeting room.

Lunch is served compliments of our Salesforce Account Executive, Danielle Benakos. Please RSVP via this link http://tinyurl.com/y8c8hlt to ensure an accurate count.

The last couple of weeks have been spent working with our Account Executive, Danielle, to finalize a GREAT agenda for this pre-Dreamforce user group meeting. The hope is that everyone can attend and be part of a great learning experience.

As part of this session we have several people coming to Omaha to offer their assistance with training/instruction. Brian Connell with Astadia and both Mark Epperson and Danielle from Salesforce will be on-site to assist us with our Salesforce learning adventure.

With all of you and these Salesforce powerhouses - this is an amazing learning opportunity.

I've been overwhelmed with the level of interest in our December 12th free training event in Omaha. I'm thrilled with the level of interest that Nebraska users have in getting the most out of their Salesforce CRM.

Our Certified Salesforce Trainer will cover topics that attendees voted to learn more on including workflow rules and Winter '09 releases.

To date we have around 60 RSVPs. If you haven't registered yet contact me by Thursday to get added to the guest list.
