Subject: Approval to attend Biggest Little Dreamin’, January 28-29, 2027
Hi [Manager’s Name],
I’d like to attend Biggest Little Dreamin’ in Reno, Nevada on January 28-29, 2027, and I wanted to lay out why it’s worth the time and the budget.
Biggest Little Dreamin’ is a Salesforce community conference built and run by Trailblazers. Sessions are selected by the community and taught by practitioners who use Salesforce every day, the focus is practical: real solutions, real patterns, and lessons I can bring straight back to our team. It carries forward the spirit of Tahoe Dreamin’, a conference that ran for nearly a decade before ending in 2025.
Here’s what it costs:
- Registration: $99 per ticket (the Community Rate)
- Hotel: $69/night weekday, $99/night weekend, at the Silver Legacy, directly across from the venue
- No rental car needed, a free shuttle runs from the airport to the hotel
What I’ll bring back: practical, hands-on knowledge I can apply immediately, direct access to people solving the same problems we are, and a stronger professional network in the Salesforce ecosystem.
I’d appreciate your approval to register and book travel. Happy to talk through the details.
Thanks,
[Your Name]
