Congrats to the Spiff team!
Hey all, BIG NEWS: Spiff has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Salesforce! 🎊 🚀 👏 😁 We couldn’t be more thrilled!!! You can learn more about the announcement here: https://lnkd.in/gmsvMS_X. When we started Spiff ~6 years ago, Salesforce was our dream acquirer. The Salesforce team members we have worked with over the last ~2 years from Salesforce Ventures to the business and M&A teams have validated that we had the right dream. I believe entrepreneurs shouldn’t celebrate funding rounds since they can take your eye off of creating value for your customers. As much as we feel we have accomplished over the last 6 years, we’re just getting started. So I feel similarly about this transition for Spiff. We still have so much to accomplish for our customers and our long-term vision. Here’s what we WILL celebrate: joining Salesforce will help us turbo charge our ability to meet our customer’s needs even better going forward. We know you have choices and earning your ongoing trust is our biggest priority. Salesforce’s #1 value is Trust (https://lnkd.in/gD5t-J7B.) which aligns perfectly with our most important Spiff Pattern, “We put customer trust first.” To our customers, we will continue to serve you ceaselessly. It’s not going to just be “business as usual.” You should expect _improvement_ in our ability to be responsive, global, and ready to handle your most challenging enterprise issues. To our first customers Lucid Software, Weave, and ExpertVoice, we will never forget what you have done for us. Spiff owes this success 100% to our team. So to the Spiff team, please know I’m convinced you are the best team in the world. We’ve created an environment together where we can create the best work of our careers. I’m confident we will continue to push that work forward at Salesforce once the deal closes. Lastly, on a personal note, I’m so grateful to Elizabeth and my kids who have supported me through years of sacrifice. Love you all so much!!!!! You’re my WHY!
