About Salesforce
We're Salesforce, the Customer Company, inspiring the future of business with AI+ Data +CRM.

Leading with our core values, we help companies across every industry blaze new trails and connect with customers in a whole new way.

And, we empower you to be a Trailblazer, too — driving your performance and career growth, charting new paths, and improving the state of the world.

If you believe in business as the greatest platform for change and in companies doing well and doing good - you've come to the right place.

The Customer Success Group's (CSG) Offer Management team is a product management organization that productizes and monetizes the CSG capabilities that will help customers realize business value from their Salesforce technology investment.

We maintain a multi-year roadmap for our portfolio, develop research-backed cases for Offer development and positioning, and lead the entire portfolio from design to end-of-life.

We adhere to a governance framework to effectively manage and co-ordinate cross-functional work.

Once offers are launched, we measure Offer performance and identify changes to improve the experience customers and Salesforce employees have with our Offers.
