CMO Stephanie Buscemi explains the company's new products, leadership video series and more
Great marketing is about creating moments that matter to your customers. Moments that increase engagement, spark a conversation, and build a lasting relationship. Moments that reach them personally, whoever they are, wherever they go. Salesforce gives creators the tools to understand who their customers really are. Get started now.
The Covid-19 pandemic has been a major test of the true strength of company values across all sorts of industries. At Salesforce, its four main pillars—trust, customer success, innovation and equality—have formed the foundation of how the CRM giant has responded, internally and externally, to the extraordinary pressures of the time. On this week’s episode of On Brand, we talk to CMO Stephanie Buscemi about how Salesforce—which is also On Brand’s presenting partner—immediately started innovating to help its customers weather the storm, and how it’s supplemented that critical product conversation with the human touch, including a leadership video series to keep the industry informed and inspired.
