Begin with Salesforce in a focused way

 

Motivation behind this


"How to start knowing about Salesforce?" it's a big question whether a college student wants to know about Salesforce or an experienced non-Salesforce techy wants to explore Salesforce and most importantly from where we can start?
Honestly, Trailhead is a platform to refer with, but candidate will get lost too to begin with. Hence, potentially will loose interest.
Hence, objective of this post is, how a person can spend a week time to get it accustomed with Salesforce landscape before even deep-dive to a particular area.

Sharing my tips to begin with step by step.
