MILWAUKEE (PRWEB) December 20, 2017 -- At Dreamforce 2017, Salesforce announced its inaugural Lightning Bolt Trailblazer Awards that celebrated partners, customers, and leaders who pushed the boundaries this year with Salesforce Community Cloud and Lightning Bolt. At the event, Phil Weinmeister, senior director of product management at 7Summits and a Salesforce MVP, was named one of the first “Community Cloud Pioneers” for his dedication to the Salesforce Community Cloud product in the form of thought leadership, evangelism and partnership activities.

I am extremely honored to accept the inaugural designation of Community Cloud Pioneer from Salesforce. It has been a pleasure to work with the Community Cloud team so closely over the past few years, and I’m already looking forward to blazing new trails with communities in 2018.

Lightning Bolts are frameworks that empower companies to accelerate the creation of communities, next-generation portals and customer-facing websites. Lightning Bolts, now available on the AppExchange, are designed for a wide variety of business and vertical industry needs.
Weinmeister’s award was one of two individual awards, and one of the only individual awards for full-year involvement. “I am extremely honored to accept the inaugural designation of Community Cloud Pioneer from Salesforce. It has been a pleasure to work with the Community Cloud team so closely over the past few years, and I’m already looking forward to blazing new trails with communities in 2018.”

In his role at 7Summits, Weinmeister develops Lightning-based products and solutions for customers, partners and employees on Community Cloud. Phil has earned 18 Salesforce certifications and has authored a highly-rated book about no-code app building with Salesforce titled "Practical Salesforce.com Development Without Code: Customizing Salesforce on the Force.com Platform." He is currently authoring a second book named “Complete Guide to Salesforce Communities: Building, Managing, and Enhancing an Online Community on Salesforce,” which further establishes his expertise and thought leadership in the Salesforce ecosystem.

"We are both proud and excited about Phil's latest achievement. Phil is instrumental in developing exciting, transformative solutions for our clients," said Paul Stillmank, CEO and founder of 7Summits. "By developing groundbreaking Salesforce Community Cloud solutions, Phil embodies the thought leadership we revere in our sherpas at 7Summits."
