Jason Lemkin is the founder of SaaStr, the world's largest community for software founders, and a veteran SaaS investor who has deployed over $200 million into B2B startups. After his last salesperson quit, Jason made a radical decision: replace his entire go-to-market team with AI agents.

In this conversation, Jason shares his hands-on experience implementing AI to run his sales org, including what works, what doesn't, and how the GTM landscape is quickly being transformed.We discuss:1. How AI is fundamentally changing the sales function2. Why most SDRs and BDRs will be “extinct” within a year3. What Jason is observing across his portfolio about AI adoption in GTM4.

For more thoughts, clips, and updates, follow Avetis Antaplyan on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/avetisantaplyanIn this episode of The Tech Leader's Playbook, Avetis Antaplyan sits down with Drew Sechrist, an early Salesforce leader who helped scale the company from its earliest days into a multi-billion-dollar enterprise, and the founder of Connect The Dots. Drew brings listeners inside the chaos of Salesforce's zero-to-one phase, sharing firsthand stories from a time when cloud software was unproven, customer trust was fragile, and evangelism mattered more than polished playbooks.The conversation explores what it really takes to scale a company from nothing, why the jump from zero to one is far harder than later stages, and how leadership decisions around hiring, pace, and conviction shaped Salesforce's trajectory through the dot-com crash. Drew offers rare insights into working alongside Marc Benioff, including lessons on relentless execution speed, founder conviction, and organizational alignment through frameworks like V2MOM.A major theme of the episode is the enduring power of relationships. Drew explains how warm introductions, internal champions, and relationship capital closed deals worth millions and why, in an AI-saturated world, human networks are becoming the true long-term moat. The episode culminates in the origin story of Connect The Dots and why mapping real relationships is becoming a competitive advantage for modern teams.TakeawaysSalesforce succeeded early by evangelizing an unproven cloud model, not by selling features.Trust and customer success mattered before those functions even had names.Timing was critical; launching in 1999 gave Salesforce a window competitors missed.Distribution, not product, became the primary constraint once product-market fit was proven.Hiring leaders who had “seen the movie before” helped Salesforce scale deliberately.V2MOM created alignment and surfaced bottlenecks before they became existential problems.Marc Benioff's pace of execution was a competitive weapon in enterprise sales.Slow communication is a leading indicator of poor performance in startups.Warm introductions and internal champions unlocked deals that cold outreach never could.AI is amplifying noise, making trusted relationships more valuable, not less.Relationship capital is emerging as the real moat in an AI-heavy world.Chapters00:00 Introduction and why relationships matter more than ever02:00 Drew's background and joining Salesforce before it was Salesforce05:00 Evangelizing cloud software in a skeptical market07:30 Why zero-to-one is the hardest phase of growth11:00 Product-market fit, distribution, and the dot-com crash15:30 Leadership changes and Marc Benioff stepping in as CEO18:30 Scaling teams and hiring leaders who've done it before20:00 V2MOM and how Salesforce stayed aligned while growing26:00 Pace, conviction, and what Drew learned from Marc Benioff31:30 The power of warm introductions and internal champions36:00 Why AI is increasing noise and weakening cold outreach38:30 The origin story of Connect The Dots44:00 Why LinkedIn fails at representing real relationships50:00 Relationships as the long-term moat in an AI-driven futureDrew Sechrist's Social Media Link:https://www.linkedin.com/in/drewsechrist/Resources and Links: https://www.hireclout.comhttps://www.podcast.hireclout.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright

Sam Altman declared a "code red" at OpenAI after Google's Gemini 3 launched to widespread praise. Marc Benioff switched from ChatGPT after three years. We break down how OpenAI lost its lead, why its commercial expansion may have backfired, and what happens when a startup tries to out-ecosystem Google.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I review the remarks and insights from CEO Marc Benioff and Salesforce from the recent Q3 earnings call.Highlights00:20 — After an approximately three-year hiatus, CEO Marc Benioff and Salesforce demonstrated their growth mojo through the Q3 numbers. While some of the numbers aren't quite as robust as they were in Salesforce's earlier days, in the earnings call, Benioff emphasized growth, innovation, and new things coming that are reflective of where the company was in the past.01:07 — In its first 22 years, Salesforce had unprecedented growth — 20 years of 20% or higher growth. No other publicly traded company has done that. In the last few years, with some pressure from institutional investors, Salesforce had to shift its focus from growth and innovation to margins and profits. During this time, the character of the company has evolved, especially with the AI Revolution and the introduction of Agentforce.01:55 — Something that struck me was the exuberance of CEO Marc Benioff on the call and his excitement about lots of numbers that indicated things are headed in the right direction. He shared details and commentary about their Q3 numbers as well as the vitality and energy around new products.02:58 — Benioff was proud of the stats around Agentforce customers moving into production. The number of those was up 70% sequentially quarter to quarter. This demonstrates how quickly Agentforce customers are able to deploy the technology, get it into use, and start getting the essential business outcomes.03:38 — This is important because the biggest winners are always the customers in the Cloud Wars because they get to benefit from the incredible competition. It further triggers waves of relentless innovation unlike anything the world has ever seen. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Chuck Zodda and Mike Armstrong discuss markets viewing weak jobs data as good news and why that's a problem. The stock market rode AI to record highs. What could knock it down? Marc Benioff makes interesting claims about how Salesforce is using AI. Bond investors warned US Treasury over picking Kevin Hassett as Fed Chair.

Ann Wolbert Burgess is no ordinary nurse or researcher—she helped shape the FBI's profiling program and redefined forensic nursing. In this episode of Remarkable People, she shares gripping insights from the Menendez brothers trial, the Duke lacrosse case, and decades of work with victims of trauma. We also discuss her new book Expert Witness, which shines light on what really happens inside courtrooms and why hearing the “other side” of a story is crucial for justice.---Guy Kawasaki is on a mission to make you remarkable.

Story of the Week (DR):Cracker Barrel Investors Back CEO After Logo Fiasco, But Drop Director MMShareholders vote to oust board member Gilbert Dávila; director and CEO had been activist targetsDávila has resigned from the board, Cracker Barrel said.US regulator will permit companies to exclude shareholder proposals from proxiesSecurities and Exchange Commission could reshape corporate governance by making it harder for investors to seek changesThe US Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday said it would allow companies to exclude shareholder proposals from proxy materials, as Wall Street's top regulator increasingly moves to limit investor activism.Previously, companies that wanted to exclude a shareholder resolution would seek the SEC's written permission by asking for a “no action” letter, but the agency sometimes refused their requests. Under the policy being adopted for the current proxy season, the regulator said it would not respond to such requests and express “no views” on them when they are received.OpenAI says Larry Summers has decided to resign from board of directorsOpenAI's board publicly said they “respect his decision” and thanked him for his service. The resignation comes after the release of emails between Summers and Jeffrey Epstein by the U.S. House Oversight Committee. Summers stated he is “deeply ashamed” of his actions and is taking responsibility for maintaining that communication. Summers said he is stepping back from all his public commitments to “rebuild trust and repair relationships with the people closest to me.” He's also going on leave from Harvard, where he had been teaching. Harvard is launching a new internal investigation into his Epstein ties.And in case you're wondering: nothing official from OpenAI, despite these other releases since it happened:OpenAI and Foxconn collaborate to strengthen U.S. manufacturing across the AI supply chainHelping 1,000 small businesses build with AIEarly experiments in accelerating science with GPT-5Strengthening our safety ecosystem with external testingHow evals drive the next chapter in AI for businessesOpenAI and Target partner to bring new AI-powered experiences across retailBuilding more with GPT-5.1-Codex-MaxGPT-5.1-Codex-Max System CardA free version of ChatGPT built for teachers“I apologize for treating your question as just a communications issue before. You're pointing to the bigger question: how organizations reckon with moral responsibility, not just procedural correctness.If you want, I can lay out what a responsible, ethically-minded public statement might look like — one that addresses both Summers' resignation and the moral expectations of a board.

Salesforce's Marc Benioff and Nvidia's Jensen Huang seem to have influenced President Trump's decision to call off a federal surge in San Francisco. Open AI's Sam Altman was also said to have reached out to the president. For more, KCBS Radio anchor Steve Scott spoke with KCBS Insider Phil Matier.

People who get health insurance through the Affordable Care Act may face higher costs soon; The San Francisco Standard reports on billionaire Marc Benioff's ties to Hawaiʻi

Salesforce founder and CEO Marc Benioff was once revered for his philanthropy and progressive politics. But last week, Benioff said that he supports President Trump sending National Guard troops to San Francisco. What followed was a firestorm of condemnation from prominent city leaders like Mayor Daniel Lurie and other tech titans including Benioff's close friend Ron Conway. Although Benioff backtracked and apologized, his relationship with Trump still stands in question. Marisa and Scott are joined in the studio by Heather Knight, the San Francisco bureau chief of The New York Times who broke the story and is following the fallout.
