Salesforce turns 25 today! 🎉
The story of #Salesforce started March 8th, 1999, in a one-bedroom apartment atop Telegraph Hill, San Francisco. 70,000 employees and 20 million Trailblazers later, today is a perfect day to reflect on what entrepreneurs can learn from how Salesforce built its impressive #CRM business.
Let's dive into the 4 VECTORS THAT DEFINED SALESFORCE'S PHENOMENAL GROWTH through its 25 years of existence.
1️⃣ Perfect mission, vision, and aspirations alignment
You can’t make a $2.592B business with a $10 vision. The Salesforce platform, including 6 major service clouds and over 4,000 apps available on the AppExchange, enables organizations to build meaningful and lasting relationships, leveraging the power of technology (Data + AI + Trust) to drive positive change.
2️⃣ Putting the right people in the right seat
Marc Benioff often talks about how crucial it is to hire, keep, and motivate the absolute best talent needed to grow. He also believes philanthropy is a great vector of talent recruitment. Without proper staffing, building a super successful company like Salesforce would have been impossible. It might not sound all that surprising, but the truth is, not many companies actually pull it off. Salesforce did, and you can see the awesome results.
3️⃣ Focus on your best customer segments
Lots of management teams find it tricky to figure out which customer groups are the best prospects to pursue. This decision anxiety often poses as a challenge because every customer group looks promising when you're just starting a business.
Salesforce's SVP of Sales, Rob Acker, managed to convince Benioff to pay more attention to small businesses. Why? Well, Rob's research showed that chances of closing deals in this segment were better, and it costed less to make sales in that group. Simple math, right? Benioff was on board and putted together a 4-person squad tasked to go after this customer segment, and guess what? The business experienced phenomenal growth in that space over time.
4️⃣ Build on a strong competitive advantage
Salesforce greatest communications hit has to be its early days "No Software" branding. Back when everyone was drowning in complex enterprise software installations, Salesforce was like, "Nah, we're good." They slapped that slogan on everything, made their logo rock it, and even had their team flaunting "No Software" buttons like fashion accessories!
Slowly but surely, Salesforce became the cool kid on the block, instantly recognizable and totally unique. While other companies were stuck in the software "Stone Age", Salesforce was rocking the (cloud) future. Ultimately, this brilliant chess master move allowed Salesforce to be perceived as trailblazers in their market, making it incredibly easy for key stakeholders and influencers—journalists, customers—to instantly recall what was their unique selling proposition.
What else can we learn from Salesforce's epic run?

What makes attending Salesforce user events rewarding?
It’s not just the sessions but the people!
Yes, these events are filled with sessions: technical, non-technical, strategic.
However, what truly appeals me is:
▶ People I meet in these events and their great Salesforce stories.
▶ The innovative products people have built and how they use them to solve user’s problems.
▶ People who let the guard down from professional setup and have fun in after-parties, dive bars. (that’s where the real connections are made)
I attend these events to have 1-1 conversations with people and be inspired by their Salesforce journeys!
Hence, cheers to all people in Salesforce community – both newbies and experienced.
