What a thorough, informative and concise explanation of what salesforce is! Veteran here looking for a new career path. Thanks for the clarity David. Also, it’s nice to see you went from 80+ subscriptions to over 300k! Well done!
David, I am where I am today in my career because of your critical advisement 5 years ago when I left a well paying (I thought at the time) job to pursue Salesforce full time. Glad to find you started a UA-cam channel! Subbing immediately.
I was familiar with the breadth of Salesforce but never put my hands on it - in anticipation of a new job that requires using the platform, this was a super helpful overview!
If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough -- Einstein David you nailed it. I haven't seen any video like this about Salesforce. 👌 Keep doing more and more...
Thank you so much for this!!!! After trying to explain Salesforce to a few folks in my family asking what I actually do for a job, this was absolutely the best way to help them get it! Subscribed.
Honestly this is the BEST explanation of Salesforce I’ve ever witnessed and heard in my life. :) The sample content about your wife’s anger level on equipment purchases on your screen is priceless.
Watching this 1 year after it was posted. Congrats on the 89 subscriber to 28k subscriber change! Sending this to my friends and family so that they understand my job 😂😂
Loved the humour, David! I keep hearing about SF, but I don't know enough about it. This was the perfect video for me to share with my co-workers. Thanks.
You made this video when you had less than 100 subscribers?! Amazing. The power of a high quality video. Thank you. I am looking to become a Salesforce admin.
I never heard some talk about Salesforce and its features so well and in such a short duration touched upon almost everything in Salesforce.. 👍🏼 Good job..
Also subscribed first because of the intro, but also because I really like your energy! I don’t even need a tool like that, but you almost made me pay for it anyway 😂
I wasn't even looking for Salesforce but I stumbled here, learned about Sales force, had a good laugh, and now I'm spending $200+ on a lamp. David - you should get commission (on Salesforce AND the lamp)
Really enjoyed your video, I love your approach with simplistic explanation and your humor. My company is gearing up to use Salesforce so I'm trying to get a jump start on learning what it is. I'm sure it's customized to each company but seeing a snapshot of what this is is nice before we launch.
I am 2 minutes in and I already subscribed. I already know that this su gunnu be one of those channels that blows up and us OG members resent the newcomers.
Salesforce is like RDBMS, but running on cloud with additional bells and whistles, sleek UI and code abstraction for more user friendly experience. I had a similar concept in my mind when I was in teens and used databases for the first time, LMAO. I just wasn't as resourceful back then 😅. Great explanation David! Earned yourself a subscriber 😎
This guy cracks me up. And just an FYI salesforce does aggressively increase their prices every year especially knowing the volume we do. It drives me crazy, has I know this cost early on I would have had my org develop salesforce competitor. By this time next year we will be a billion in the hole with them…
I think this is the best video that explains salesforce in a clear cut way. Before watching this video i have a doubt that if i used to learn this technology then what i have to learn after few years?But surprisingly i have the answer(from this video) that salesforce will be out there for the next 10 years as there is no strong competitor next to salesforce.
I deliver Appian projects, but need to also part-time manage a Salesforce team. This is such a great intro video for technical and non-technical folks alike.
I worked at sfdc for over a decade, good luck getting anyone to tell exactly what the app does, and does not do, just expect alot of fluffy bullshit pie in the sky marketing drivel about how its going to make all your dreams come true, just make sure to sign up for 3 years at a time or else you will get spanked on annual renewals, the place seriously gets high on its own supply and believe their own bullshit if you catch my drift...
Thank you for this explanation on salesforce. Because I only have heard of salesforce as being a CRM as the company I worked was using it in 07 on the sales side. I’ve been researching careers. I can transition into inttect, and I kept hearing people mention salesforce. My cousin is also a software engineer, and works in salesforce as well or maybe he works for salesforce. But I had to get more information since I keep hearing salesforce continuously.
Thank you for this. I really enjoyed it even though I don't use Salesforce at all and I'm a Microsoft fanboy. That's how good this video is. So good I became your 90th crappy subscriber!
Excellent example set! Hahaha. I love this powerful next-generation spreadsheet Salesforce which give me ultimate authority to play with my data however I want. Flexibility is endless! Thank you very much for this example based introduction. Each sec of 12 min worth!
Omg, I am like literally struck out by that explanation. What an awesome way, I have been thinking about switching to this technology for a long time now. And this video just steeled my resolve. Thank you very much.
Hilarious and informative. Thank you! I kept seeing Salesforce preferred on just about every job listing I was looking at so it was time to do some digging.
1:35 "Salesforce is the next generation of spreadsheets" Considering I just joined Trailhead and started training on it this was my exact way to describe it to my wife---it's like user-friendlier Excel.
The Salesforce App that the average Rep on the Field uses is Glitchy. It sometimes freezes up, and the only remedy is to delete the App and download it again. The App is much slower uploading picture than the website, which works well, yet is hard to do on a cellphone. Salesforce is focusing on Managers, that use the Website and not the App.
@@dvdkliu David, it is for the Field Reps. The Managers only use website. This is a problem for the workers in the Field, and Salesforce has done nothing to improve the App in the last 5 years. Salesforce had made this Super for Management.
I do not why, but I just love all your videos :)) Because of you, I love even more Salesforce. I am currently an Admin, did not know a word about Salesforce 2 years ago, but willing to learn more. So yes, in July I will check out your Apex Academy course on Pluralsight. Keep up the great work!
Highly recommend apex academy ! I just finished David’s 15 week course and his project . I felt really good about completing the project as it gave me a boost of confident that hey I can learn some coding if I keep at it . I am in the same boat been in the ecosystem for two years now
Wassim Chao Thank you for sharing! I heard only great things about Apex Academy, so I felt that I really have to give it a try, despite of the busy working schedule. 😊
One thing you 'forgot' to mention - you can get one Salesforce ID and multiple users can log in at the same time to reduce costs esp in generic customer service environment
I read and did the tutorials in TrailHead (for about 1 month and gave it up for a year) and thought it was kinda boring. However, 5 minutes into your video, I'm getting excited to actually start learning SalesForce again. Thanks for the funny and informative video!
Would watch again for consistent laughs about wifey's anger level - and for the brief, but detailed salesforce overview. Sharing with my friends and family and the ChooseFI group if they haven't already seen it.

Went back and read some of our emails from 5 years ago 😭😭😭😭😭 Super proud of you and super like 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Whats the industry like pal? I'm considering it.
Hi Michael. How doesn't one without tech background start off a salesforce career?
Thanks in advance
@@StephenDike-cm6pn thinking the same.
@@StephenDike-cm6pn google trailhead by Salesforce and you will be surprised with the content they have…
This is probably the best, most succinct explanation I've heard. Sending this to my family so they actually know what I do hahaha
Haha.. I did the same! 😂
A
haha I also really liked this video ua-cam.com/video/_Sa7Uf3r2jI/v-deo.html to help explain-especially the end
It's often times I explain what Salesforce is to random people and you can see their brain slowly scrolling away lol (rolls eyes haha)
What isit like as a career pal?
I was familiar with the breadth of Salesforce but never put my hands on it - in anticipation of a new job that requires using the platform, this was a super helpful overview!
I have zero knowledge of salesforce. This is amazing work David. Wish youtube has a 100like button. Thank you.

David you nailed it. I haven't seen any video like this about Salesforce. 👌
Keep doing more and more...

Thanks lol
How do you find this industry?
Learning salesforce is one of the best technology I learnt. This community helps each other a lot
I had zero knowledge about Salesforce and was looking for something exactly like this. Thanks! This was THE best!
Honestly this is the BEST explanation of Salesforce I’ve ever witnessed and heard in my life. :) The sample content about your wife’s anger level on equipment purchases on your screen is priceless.
Damm bro, this is best video on Salesforce I've found, you deserve more.
Thanks lol
Omg dude you are amazing!!!! Thank you so much for your unique creativity way of informing me of Salesforce!!!! You rock!
Thank you I like you lol
I'm just hearing SalesForce for about 2 or 3 years, and now I'm interested. Thanks for sharing this info
What an excellent job. I’m very intimidated by things like this and you broke it down in a funny and compelling way. Your great at what you do.
Thx Luke!
I've been using Salesforce for about 6 months and I think it's awesome. This was a very informative video!
You have amazing communication skills.
May the sales FORCE be with us! ⚡
Watching this 1 year after it was posted. Congrats on the 89 subscriber to 28k subscriber change! Sending this to my friends and family so that they understand my job 😂😂
Thank you Tanner 😁😁😁
I just moved to Indianapolis and there’s a giant sales force building downtown and I was curious about what it was. Then stumbled on this video.
Loved the humour, David! I keep hearing about SF, but I don't know enough about it. This was the perfect video for me to share with my co-workers. Thanks.
Sweet yet exhaustive yet compact explanation with marvelous use case.
You made this video when you had less than 100 subscribers?! Amazing. The power of a high quality video. Thank you. I am looking to become a Salesforce admin.
I never heard some talk about Salesforce and its features so well and in such a short duration touched upon almost everything in Salesforce.. 👍🏼
Good job..
I work for Salesforce and frankly I think this should be part of our onboarding video
"Willing to do shameful things to get UA-cam subscribers" LOL . I love how you keep your videos short.
Also subscribed first because of the intro, but also because I really like your energy! I don’t even need a tool like that, but you almost made me pay for it anyway 😂
Thank you Jimmy!!
Excellent delivery and coverage of this product. You 100% sold me!
This is what it is called crystal clear for newbies like me chandra shekar. Thanks David appreciate it.
Dude, what a way to deliver a video~~!!
Even more than the content, I loved his style of getting a point across!!
I wasn't even looking for Salesforce but I stumbled here, learned about Sales force, had a good laugh, and now I'm spending $200+ on a lamp. David - you should get commission (on Salesforce AND the lamp)

Dude you're awesome. Frist time on your channel and I'm hooked. Laughed so hard with your explanation of the downsides of excel. You da man.
Thanks!!!
I can't imagine a better explanation for something like this.
If Salesforce can make it so I no longer hate spreadsheets and easy as drag and drop like a Canva editor online, I'm in.
I just joined trailhead a few weeks ago and this video made me understand salesforce very quickly
I am 2 minutes in and I already subscribed. I already know that this su gunnu be one of those channels that blows up and us OG members resent the newcomers.
Thx man lol
Your videos are awesome! practical and entertaining. Applied to my first Salesforce role today using your resume tips. Thank you so much
Thank you and good luck!!
This was very entertaining and educational at the same time. Very hard to find youtube channels like this these days. You legend
Thanks!!!
@@dvdkliu np!
This is the best video ever this should be uploaded by Salesforce channel
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
I think after watching the video I have become your loyal subscriber.
Thank you Mohamed!!!

Thank you. I am enrolled in a sales force course to enhance my resume and I came here to learn more
Wishing you the best!!!
funniest informative video right before my call with a recruiter. Thanks!
Very Helpful...I used it to introduce Salesforce (Trailblazer) to my Advanced Professional Selling students!

Goddam this intro is something that Marvel Studios needs to look into... this is good man!!! What an intro... hooked.
Best Salesforce explanation online
Thanks!!
"The legendary BenQ desk lamp" - Best affiliate link desc ever! haha
If he had bought Salesforce stock when he made this video, he'd be snowboarding in Australia
😂
Never did I subscribe to the channel faster. Great charisma!
Thanks!!!
subbed because of the honesty in the beginning
Thanks!!
I deliver Appian projects, but need to also part-time manage a Salesforce team. This is such a great intro video for technical and non-technical folks alike.
Thank you!
best intro video on salesforce ever!
People at Salesforce's marketing department are getting fired over this video. Why didn't we come up with this?! 😂
I worked at sfdc for over a decade, good luck getting anyone to tell exactly what the app does, and does not do, just expect alot of fluffy bullshit pie in the sky marketing drivel about how its going to make all your dreams come true, just make sure to sign up for 3 years at a time or else you will get spanked on annual renewals, the place seriously gets high on its own supply and believe their own bullshit if you catch my drift...

Great video. Nice tone. Good information and it really clarified what Salesforce is.
This was the best and funniest video I have seen in a while. Subscribed and liked. Prediction Anger Level: Ultra High was classic.
Deserves a sub. Hope to see you grow more!
Thank you!!!
First time I stumbled on one of your videos. Fun and informative. Great content! Looking forward to seeing more of it!
The best video on Sales Force explanation. THANK YOU DAVID. 😊

Great video David! Love the way you broke down Salesforce with comparing to excel!
Hilarious and informative. Thank you! I kept seeing Salesforce preferred on just about every job listing I was looking at so it was time to do some digging.
Why is salesforce so good ? It’s because of amazing the community and people like you David ! #Inspiring
hahaha - Anyting for UA-cam Subscribers. You are already my hero!
Nice. So far we use Firmao CRM, but we will try out Salesforce.
Just noticed Wife Anger Level: very high! Lol good stuff. Loving the commitment to the use case
A big thank you from India. Watched your videos and it's too good. Looking my career towards Salesforce.
Thoroughly enjoyed the video!

Salesforce had a Global glitch this morning, David, as you said they are the best with no real Competition!
Thanks for the lecture on sales force! Trying to wrap my head around this program, for a assignment in my CRM class.
I want that gold glittery hoodie!
It was very clear, thank you.

Mind blown from his explanation.

Crappy youtube videos?!? This was great!! Thanks for posting this video

Had to chuckle at your wife's comment on your Salesforce example @5:11 "IS THAT A LAMP?"
