8. Our partners are critical. We can’t get to
$50B and beyond without them. They not
only have the solution and expertise, but
they have the capacity and connections to
our customers that we don’t. Salesforce
can’t do it alone. We need their help to
drive the scale and the success we need.

22. Key Takeaways
● Do create a plan for and work to build
engagement around both technology and
GTM/Distribution plans
● Do adopt and participate in Salesforce
betas and early access pilots; this is a
great way to shape new platform features
● Do leverage Salesforce technical resources
you have access to as much as possible;
especially roadmap sharing as this will
shape your own roadmap and innovation
● Don’t try to make the Salesforce platform
fit perfectly in to your innovation plan
and roadmap - collaborate with Salesforce
and top PDOs to align your tech goals
● Don’t assume Salesforce will come to you
for GTM and Sales Collaboration - you
have to create a executable plan and
share it with your PAM to build something
they can work with
● Don’t under-resource your Salesforce
platform technology or partner teams
DO’S DON’TS
