About this episode

A Salesforce renewal is never one negotiation. It is a tier mix reset, an Agentforce scope decision, a Data Cloud commitment, and a bundling exercise stacked into one paper date, with a default uplift clause working for the vendor the whole time. This episode separates the layers so you can price each one.

Sarah and Michael cover the late January close window, capping the uplift, true down rights, consumption credit rollover, and when Agentforce actually pays back versus when it is shelfware with a new name.

The model. Redress Compliance works on contingency. You negotiate with the vendor first. When you have gotten everything you can get, bring the deal to Redress and we take 25 percent of what we save you beyond your best number. Nothing saved, nothing paid. Talk to us.
