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]
