Writing Salesforce Triggers the Right Way

Hi ,

Triggers are one of the most powerful tools in Salesforce — but they can also be one of the easiest ways to slow down an org if they’re not written well.

In my latest blog, I put together a guide on:

  • When you should use a trigger (and when Flow is enough)

  • The 5 most common trigger mistakes (like SOQL in loops, multiple triggers on the same object, ignoring context variables)

  • Best practices interviewers are looking for, like bulkification and using handler classes

If you’re learning Apex or getting ready for Salesforce developer interviews, I think you’ll find this really helpful:

As always, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Have you seen (or written 😅) any of these mistakes before?

Talk soon,
