Salesforce AppExchange Success Blueprint

Part 1:Setting the Stage

Ah, the Salesforce ecosystem and AppExchange. Think of them as the grand ballroom of tech where you’re not just a guest but the star performer. Before you take the stage, however, you need to know your lines, your props, and which way the exit is (just in case). Before our show begins, we need to do a dress rehearsal.

First, we’ll embark on a behind-the-scenes tour of the Salesforce ecosystem and AppExchange, to familiarize ourselves with the spotlight and where not to step. Then, as you transform into the Independent Software Vendor (ISV) partner you were destined to be, we’ll share secrets (shh!) on crafting apps that not only dazzle but also resonate with the audience... I mean, customers.

By the time the curtain falls on this part, you’ll have your performance mapped out, ready to receive a standing ovation on AppExchange.

Our setlist includes the following:

  • Chapter 1, Introduction to Salesforce Ecosystem and AppExchange
  • Chapter 2, Becoming an AppExchange Partner
  • Chapter 3, Designing Customer-Centric Applications

I got around to reviewing Jakub's book this weekend, and it is a *very* comprehensive 300 pages of end-to-end knowledge and guidance on the entire journey. From ideation and planning, to development, security review, and marketing an app listing.I've been a guest on Jakub's AI podcast, and look forward to future iterations of this book as the goal posts move towards GPT-driven development and dialogue-based CRM-AI systems. Jakub seems primed to redefine how PDOs approach future AppExchange AI apps.

I have been reading the "Salesforce AppExchange Success Blueprint" for the past days and it's really awesome. I’m very impressed with the level of detail, the step by step approach and the wide range of topics the book covers, from ideation to marketing, including best practices and strategies. I highly recommend it to ALL Salesforce professionals working with ISVs, not only in the engineering department but in product management as well.Really amazing work!

Buildings apps for the Salesforce App Exchange requires a specialized skill set vs building a custom solution for a single customer. This book can help guide you through designing and delivering scalable solutions on the App Exchange.

This guide is essential for anyone looking to publish an app on the Salesforce AppExchange. It's the most thorough guide that I've seen on the topic and Jakub does a great job of laying out some foundational information about the Salesforce Platform and Ecosystem and then builds on top of that with practical guidance on the steps to become an AppExchange partner and then develop and publish an app. It also covers some longer term topics, like managing technical debt and gathering analytics about the performance of your app, which aren't always covered in a lot of other guides. The guidance in this book is also based on Jakub's own experience, which helps to add a personal touch to his writing and also makes it really enjoyable to read.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:
