Skyrocketing
demand for Salesforce skilled talent
When Parker Harris and Marc Benioff started it in an
apartment where they wanted to create a CRM system, they did not know that it
would be a game changer product and become the first choice for the big
corporate houses to solve their day-to-day business problems. Yes, we are
talking about 'Salesforce' here. Salesforce has more than 20% market share
globally in the field of Business CRM's. In addition, if a company have such a
big chunk, it has a need of large number of employees to work for it.
The online business publication revealed that Salesforce
grew faster than other CRM solutions in 2018, increasing its revenue by over
23%. These statistics indicate that the demand for the Salesforce solutions is
increasing the world over. This includes the demand for both the desktop and
mobile versions of Salesforce. An increasing number of app development
companies with experience and expertise in Salesforce are being hired today by
businesses worldwide to improve Salesforce implementation and integration. With
this increased demand for Salesforce worldwide, the demand for Salesforce
developers across the globe is also increasing. According to a recent study by
the International Data Corporation (IDC), there has been a huge increase in
jobs that require Salesforce skills and the Salesforce ecosystem is predicted
to create 3.3 million new jobs and over $850 billion in revenues worldwide by
2022.
Another interesting finding of the survey was that building
apps on Salesforce helped the companies to increase their revenue by more than
$50000 per 100 users per year. Additionally, it helped increase business
benefits per 100 users per year by more than $240,000. Overall, the companies
have seen a $918,500 increase in revenue since they started to use Salesforce.
This is a 10% increase in total revenue, which amounts to over $129,000 in
revenue per 100 users. Because of the increased revenue and ROI they
experienced, the surveyed companies have increased their Salesforce app
development by more than 40%. This shows that there is a high demand for app
developers with Salesforce skills today. For businesses, this is a warning sign
that they need to start thinking about Salesforce app development soon if they
do not want to be left behind by their competition.
Cumulatively these statistics show that there is more demand
for the skilled Salesforce professionals than any other industry right now and
hence the reason of skyrocketing demand for Salesforce skilled talent.
