Sal Troiano

My name is Andrew Sinclair and I want to introduce myself and Sal Troiano as the co-chairs of the official Salesforce.com Toronto user group.

The Toronto user group will let you meet other Salesforce users and administrators within the GTA to network, share best practices, and learn from industry leaders. We have arranged to hold our first meeting on April 14th at 5:30 at the Sheraton Centre immediately after Cloudforce (Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel, 123 Queen Street West).

Our first meeting will focus on the group's charter and the schedule of events (we are looking to have meetings every 4-6 weeks).  We'll also get feedback on topics for future meetings.  These meetings are free and we urge anyone who’s interested to attend.

In the meantime, you can register for Cloudforce today, and we look forward to seeing you there. Click here for more details on Cloudforce.

Regards,

Andrew Sinclair - @a_sinclair

The Toronto Salesforce User Group is all about meeting other Salesforce users and admins within the GTA for the purpose of networking, sharing best practices, and experiencing success with our favourite business application!

Our kick-off meeting has been set for Wednesday February 27, 2008 from 6:30pm - 8:30pm.  We will be meeting at Salesforce headquarters in Downtown Toronto (WaterPark Place @ 10 Bay Street, Suite 400).  Please note the slight change in meeting location as we're now set up in the opposite building and on a different floor.  A number of us will be gathering in front of the Second Cup located near the bottom of the escalators from 6:00 - 6:30pm - we will then proceed to the meeting location together.  If you arrive past 6:30, please inform security and they will escort you to the 4th floor.

We hope you can join us for our inaugural meeting!  Light refreshments will be served.
