Soapbox Engage Blog

After a full week away from the friendly confines of the Soapbox Engage offices, it was nice to spend the week back in DC. Best yet, it was a chance for me to attend our local non-profit user group meeting while prepping for days of Nandos eating later this week (thanks Salesforce for the user group food!).

As I get ready to prepare myself for back-to-back redeye flights en route to our second NPSP Day Cape Town later this week, allow me to get out of the way and deliver this week's round of knowledge.

Don't forget, you can have the goodness of the PUB Crawl delivered into your inbox each Monday morning by subscribing today!
