💃 Salesforce Alchemy | How Marc Makes $3 Million Per Day 🕺

and Salesforce's Tagline Grows Another Limb

Good morning, Salesforce Nerds! Marc Benioff has been cashing $3 million dollars per day 💰💰💰 in Salesforce shares , which is about 15,000 CRM shares. Salesforce has a job board, although it’s not quite as cool as your job board 😉. Salesforce World Tour’s latest stop in the incomparable NYC 🗽 took over your Linkedin feed.

DAILY SCRUM

Icebreaker

Marc has been cashing millions of dollars of his Salesforce shares, daily 😳.

But fear not, this is actually a very clever liquidity move for a very clever billionaire 🧐.

You see, when you hear people are worth Hundreds of Millions or Billions of Dollars, that value is not liquid.

ie A billionaire cannot immediately go buy something that costs billions of dollars.

They would need to convert their assets into money. Assets being planes ✈️ , real estate 🏠, businesses 🏢 , stocks, etc.

This is exactly the case for Marc- his billions are tied up in his business, Salesforce. For Marc to have folding money 💵 to slip into his big pockets, he needs to liquidate some of his company equity.

And with the sentiment created by a founder selling off shares (how would you feel if your parents suddenly started selling off the cars and furniture? Worried, right?), Marc has developed a tactic to create ho-hum optics 🧠.

And where’s that money being spent? Marc mentioned philanthropy and buying other businesses for good 🦸.

The ChaCha furiously takes notes ✍️

Salesforce’s socials were drenched in World Tour posts.

Y’all noticed Salesforce added to their tagline, right 👀?

Data + AI + CRM + ???? (read the tweet!)

The top rated post on Reddit last week - a worker convinces their bosses that Salesforce is the solution their company needs 🫡.

What are your thoughts on the advice in the comments? What would you advise? 🤔
