Why Salesforce Negotiations Are Different

Most enterprises overspend on Salesforce significantly — not because they chose the wrong products, but because they lacked the benchmarking data and tactical expertise to negotiate at parity with Salesforce’s sales team.

Multi-year contracts, aggressive renewal uplift, complex edition structures, and bundled add-ons create an environment designed to work in Salesforce’s favour.

📈

Aggressive Renewal Uplift

Built-in price escalation that compounds year over year, often exceeding 7–10% annually.

📦

Complex Edition Tiers

Enterprise vs. Professional vs. Unlimited — paying for tiers users don’t need is extremely common.

🔄

Auto-Renewal Lock-In

Clauses that automatically renew at inflated rates with limited window to renegotiate.

🧩

Add-On Sprawl

Redundant add-ons, unused sandbox environments, and licences for inactive users quietly inflate costs.

🔍

No Pricing Transparency

You don’t know what comparable enterprises are paying — and Salesforce prefers it that way.

Every Salesforce Engagement Covers

A complete advisory package designed to give you the data, strategy, and tactical execution to negotiate with Salesforce from a position of strength.

📊

Discount Benchmarking

Your Salesforce pricing benchmarked against our database of comparable enterprise deals. We identify where your discounts fall relative to market — by product, edition, and volume — and quantify exactly how much room exists to negotiate.

📜

Contract & Terms Review

Independent review of your agreement terms: auto-renewal clauses, uplift caps, flexibility provisions, termination rights, usage limits, and data portability. We identify what is missing, non-standard, and what can be improved.

🎯

Negotiation Strategy

A tailored playbook: what to say to Salesforce, when to say it, what to ask for, what to concede, and how to create leverage. Includes scripted responses, counter-proposal frameworks, and timing tactics aligned to Salesforce’s fiscal calendar.

Optional
🤝

Managed Negotiation

Redress takes the lead and manages the entire Salesforce negotiation on your behalf. We engage directly with your account team, present counter-proposals, run meetings, and drive the process to close. Your team retains oversight and final approval.

Licence & Edition Optimisation

Analysis of your current deployment: are users on the right editions? Are you paying for Enterprise when Professional suffices? Are there unused licences, redundant add-ons, or sandbox sprawl? We right-size before you negotiate.

📋

Executive Recommendation

Board-ready summary: current vs. market pricing, identified savings, recommended negotiation position, and projected financial outcome. Designed to give your leadership team the confidence to approve the strategy.

Dedicated Service Pages

Salesforce License Optimisation

Right-size your Salesforce estate before renewal. Edition analysis, licence reclamation, add-on rationalisation, and deployment review to ensure you only pay for what you actually need.

Advisory for new Salesforce purchases, product additions, and expansions. Pricing benchmarking for new products, commercial structuring, volume discount negotiation, multi-year term optimisation, and contract term protections. Goal: buy right the first time.
