Thanksgiving is about coming together with family and friends over good food and good conversation. But it’s also a time for reflection about what we’re thankful for. Over the past week, we’ve shared our appreciation for key elements that make our work at AGG possible. From the efficiency brought about by Salesforce automation features to the expertise of implementation specialists, and, most importantly, the meaningful relationships we’ve built with our clients — each aspect contributes to the tapestry of success we’ve woven.

But none of this would be possible without the indispensable tool that is Salesforce. In the past, we’ve talked a lot about what makes Salesforce great from a statistical perspective. From their plans to create 9.3 million new jobs and 1.6 trillion dollars in new revenue by 2026, to the incredible support of the Ohana, there are seemingly innumerable reasons why the Salesforce company is celebrated.

The bottom line is that Salesforce is more than just a software; it’s a game-changer; ten years as the world’s best CRM is not luck. It’s the result of Salesforce constantly raising the bar, staying ahead of the curve, and making our jobs easier.

This Thanksgiving, the AGG team sat down to articulate the many reasons we’re genuinely thankful for Salesforce — let’s take a closer look at what makes this partnership so exceptional.

“I express my gratitude to Salesforce for several reasons. On a personal level, it has empowered me to pursue a career that involves continual learning of new technologies and gaining insights into various businesses and organizations. This, in turn, has enabled me to assist them in optimizing their operations through Salesforce. On the professional front, Salesforce has played a pivotal role in establishing centralized and streamlined systems for numerous organizations. By automating redundant tasks and processes, it allows technology to handle operational intricacies, thereby freeing up valuable time for business leaders to concentrate on core activities such as cultivating relationships and achieving measurable outcomes.” Vamsi Bollineni, CEO and Founder

“I’m grateful that Salesforce – as the dominant #1 CRM platform in the world, the fastest growing software company in the history of technology, and 100% cloud-based from the start – has solved more business problems and worked more successfully for my customers than any platform I’ve encountered in my lengthy career.” – Tom Harding, Senior Vice President, Sales

“I have been in the Salesforce ecosphere for over 8 years and am continually impressed by the foresight Salesforce has shown. From the customer point of view, their training programs via Trailblazer are second to none and the ease of use and user-friendliness have improved tremendously over the years. As an implementation partner, it is amazing that Salesforce offers such a broad range of configuration possibilities to meet any customer’s business processes. It is truly the play-dough of the industry. You can mold Salesforce in an infinite amount of ways!” – Tom Reicher, Director of Sales

“Whenever I encounter yet another inspiring Salesforce success story from both our clients and consultants, recounting how Salesforce has played a pivotal role in elevating and enriching their professional journeys, it fills me with warmth and deepens my appreciation for being a part of the Salesforce community. Witnessing how Salesforce propels businesses to greater efficiency, enabling them to enhance the lives of their customers and clients, is truly heartening. Not only does it expedite operations, but it also grants individuals more precious moments with their loved ones throughout the year, including the joyous holiday season!” – Kara Hughes, Director of Operations and Recruitment, AGG

“I am grateful that Salesforce has been the vehicle that has driven so many positive relationships in my life. The nature of Salesforce requires constant collaboration. Whether that’s a customer, a prospect, a Salesforce AE, a coworker, etc. Because of the time that we all spend together, often lines are crossed and I’m happy to say I’ve gained friends and mentors that will last a lifetime.” – Michael Murray, Account Executive

“One of the things that first drew me to Salesforce was its elegance in solving customer problems and driving scalability. One of the things I’m most grateful for now, after years of use, is Salesforce’s constant updates, consistently improving and cultivating that elegance. I also really love how well they include the everyday users’, admins’, consultants’, and developers’ concerns when determining the road map through IdeaExchange (chefs kiss 👨‍🍳🤌)” – Seph Cordovano, Senior Consultant

“I’m grateful for the seamless synergy between Access Global Group and Salesforce Platform, crafting the epitome of CRM excellence. This Thanksgiving, we extend heartfelt thanks to our thriving remote work culture, where innovation and collaboration flourish. In the world of sales, Salesforce is not just a platform; it’s the art of turning possibilities into prosperity. Cheers to a harmonious blend of technology and teamwork!” Shishir Kumar Singh, Recruitment Manager

“I am very thankful for Salesforce because it has given me many good memories. All these years since I have been associated with Salesforce, I have grown in my professional life which has helped me to achieve my personal goals. A career in Salesforce has helped me to maintain the perfect work-life balance. Thank you Salesforce!” Durgesh Kumar, Project Manager

“I am grateful for all the training that Salesforce has allowed me to take part in, which has allowed me to advance my learning, knowledge, and career. From the Pathfinder Training Program to Trailhead, the resources have been invaluable and the support and camaraderie are much appreciated. I am also grateful for the opportunity to have attended Dreamforce for the last two years, both have been phenomenal experiences in collaborating and networking with like-minded individuals, as well as staying at the forefront of the latest updates and developments from Salesforce.” Tremaya Reynolds, Marketing Intern

“As we approach the season of thanks, I want to express my sincere gratitude for being part of our remote family-first organization. In a world where distance often divides, our shared commitment to connection and collaboration makes us stronger. Thank you for the support, camaraderie, and innovative spirit that define us. Cheers to our remote family!” John Hall, Marketing Manager

“There are so many reasons to be thankful for Salesforce, but above all else, I’m thankful for the community. The Salesforce Ohana isn’t just a network; it’s a cornerstone for everyone involved in and around this vibrant ecosystem. The guidance and support from Salesforce MVPs and seasoned experts have been an invaluable asset, enriching my understanding of the ever-evolving realm of the world’s leading CRM.
