The new normal allows us to embrace digital-first transformations seen in the hybrid work setup we face. With that, the Salesforce partner ecosystem is also expected to grow six times faster than Salesforce by 2024.

IDC also reported that cloud-related technologies will cover up to 27% of digital transformation spendings in 2021 and will increase to 37% by 2026. 51% of companies also rate cloud ecosystems as “very important” to their success.

Impact of Salesforce on Job Opportunities

As the demand for Salesforce increases, so makes the demand for talent. IDC reports that more than nine million new job opportunities worldwide are set to arise from the Salesforce economy. Australians and New Zealanders can expect to have 104,400 and 26,000 new jobs, respectively; that’s why Salesforce empowers everyone to learn skills needed to meet the demands. Did you know that over 3.6 million people use Trailhead? That is an 89% jump from the 1.9 million users in 2019.

Salesforce users use the cloud-based platform to facilitate the new normal flexibility and a more sustainable future. The environment can benefit from the rapid adoption of the “work-from-anywhere” setup as it lessens the carbon footprint of companies. It is also reported that up to one billion metric tonnes of C02 will be reduced because of cloud computing technologies.

Salesforce’s commitment to helping the environment makes it easier to understand why 28% of surveyed customers have transitioned to Salesforce for sustainability strategies.

Success Stories of Salesforce Implementation in Australia and New Zealand

The non-profit company’s biggest administrative challenge was processing donations, and they were losing time trying to catch up by doing manual processes and received a 30% failure rate. This resulted in even more effort from their workforce.
