Understanding Salesforce’s Seller Home

If you’ve logged into your Salesforce recently and come across a new home page, you haven’t done anything wrong, and your admin has likely not made this change without a heads-up. This is Salesforce’s Seller Home – a home page update that applies to Lightning Experience in Professional, Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited editions – and it is now rolling out to a Sales Cloud near you. 

Why Did My Salesforce Home Page Change? 

Seller Home is now the default home page for the Sales, Sales Console, and Sales Engagement apps. If you have not used a custom home page, meaning you have always had the default home page, this auto-updates to the default home page that Salesforce chooses. 

To avoid this moving forward, or to change what your sales team is seeing as they log in, you can create a custom home page.

Can I Disable Salesforce's Seller Home Page?

If you do not want a custom home page or don't feel like building one out at the moment, you can also disable Seller Home and revert to the previous default home page.

The following settings screen can be found by going to Salesforce Setup and navigating to the "Home" option. Here, you will find options to not only change your default home page, but to get nuanced with your preferences.
