The insider's view of how Salesforce.com grew from an idea to a billion-dollar company in less than a decade. How did salesforce.com grow from a start up in a rented apartment into the world's fastest growing software company with a billion dollars in revenue? For the first time, Marc Benioff, the visionary founder, Chairman, and CEO of Salesforce.com, tells how he and his team created and used new business, technology, and philanthropic models tailored to this time of extraordinary change. Showing how Salesforce.com not only survived the dotcom implosion of 2001, but went on to define itself as the leader of the cloud computing revolution and spark a $52 billion-dollar on-demand industry, this book helps business leaders and entrepreneurs stand out, innovate better, and grow faster in any economic climate. In Success On Demand, Benioff offers his team's winning playbook and shares the unconventional-yet-common-sense-strategies that have inspired employees, turned customers into evangelists, leveraged an ecosystem of partners, and allowed innovation to flourish.
