Salesforce Unveils Composable Storefront, a Digital Commerce Solution to Help Retailers ‘Go Headless’ Fast

Salesforce is continuing its crusade for environmental friendly and digital commerce as it unveils the latest in solutions for retailers. 

This solution is said to not only be adaptable and flexible, it is also showing the effort that is needed to keep up with fresh demands from retailers as they become ever prescient in a digital landscape. 

Salesforce betting on digital commerce in 2022 is nothing new, as this year has been a banner year for growing digitization after the supply chain issues that plagued businesses during the pandemic.

User Adoption Research: Details from my PhD Research

Get your Sellers and Sales Managers on this…

My doctoral dissertation was focused on the adoption theories of Diffusion of Innovations, Change Management, and Adult Learner.  These theories feed so nicely into an approach that is truly having a moment: human-centered design.

Human-centered design means so many things to so many people. In the LUMA approach, there are 12 methods to consider, including evaluative research, problem framing, and concept ideation.  Understanding and then applying the principles of people and systems will help you to design Salesforce for ultimate user adoption.  Last month, I was so excited to present new methods of using human-centered design for SFDC user adoption at CenCal Dreamin’.  Check it out here!

Q: Should I go to the Salesforce Dreamforce conference?

A: The Dreamforce conference is truly an incredible event.  Held annually in San Francisco, Salesforce adapted the 2020 and 2021 Dreamforce events to be heavily virtual to accommodate the pandemic, and that has led to a 2022 offering that is both on-ground and online.

Regardless of whether you attend in person or online, there are amazing sessions for every role, from Administrator to Human Resources to Sales and Service.  Set aside some time on your calendar to attend these valuable sessions – and as always, we’ll be live-blogging the event for you!
