๐Ÿ’ƒ Salesforce Alchemy | How Marc Makes $3 Million Per Day ๐Ÿ•บ

and Salesforce's Tagline Grows Another Limb

Good morning, Salesforce Nerds! Marc Benioff has been cashing $3 million dollars per day ๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ’ฐ in Salesforce shares , which is about 15,000 CRM shares. Salesforce has a job board, although itโ€™s not quite as cool as your job board ๐Ÿ˜‰. Salesforce World Tourโ€™s latest stop in the incomparable NYC ๐Ÿ—ฝ took over your Linkedin feed.

DAILY SCRUM

Icebreaker

Marc has been cashing millions of dollars of his Salesforce shares, daily ๐Ÿ˜ณ.

But fear not, this is actually a very clever liquidity move for a very clever billionaire ๐Ÿง.

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 โœˆ๏ธ , real estate ๐Ÿ , businesses ๐Ÿข , stocks, etc.

This is exactly the case for Marc- his billions are tied up in his business, Salesforce. For Marc to have folding money ๐Ÿ’ต 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 ๐Ÿง .

And whereโ€™s that money being spent? Marc mentioned philanthropy and buying other businesses for good ๐Ÿฆธ.

The ChaCha furiously takes notes โœ๏ธ

Salesforceโ€™s socials were drenched in World Tour posts.

Yโ€™all noticed Salesforce added to their tagline, right ๐Ÿ‘€?

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 ๐Ÿซก.
