Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff has been promoting the concept of the ‘𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁-𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁’ 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 recently (https://lnkd.in/e8iTUuG2), but its relevance extends far beyond any single vendor's vision—it represents a fundamental shift in how enterprises operate in an AI-driven world. Most organizations who are using AI today are doing so in isolated pockets: perhaps a chatbot for customer service, predictive analytics for sales, or automation for specific back-office tasks. The Agent-First Organization is like an 𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗲𝘀, handling complex processes end-to-end. Less "chatbot" and more "augmented organisation" that scales instantly without proportional costs. AI agents are like digital employees with specific roles and responsibilities. They can understand context, make decisions, and work together. Let’s take a 𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗘𝘅𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲: • Traditional AI: A chatbot handles basic queries and escalates everything else to humans • Agent-First: An integrated team of AI agents manages the entire customer journey:  o One agent understands the customer's history and current needs o Another checks inventory and delivery systems o A third coordinates with billing and payments o A fourth schedules technical support if needed o All working together seamlessly, only escalating truly complex issues 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗳𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲𝘀 📈 Scalable Growth Without Linear Costs 💰 Dramatic Cost Base Reduction 🎯 Enhanced Customer Experience 🚀 Accelerated Revenue Growth 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 Think of it like the early days of autonomous vehicles: we've moved from basic driver assistance to fully autonomous Waymo fleets But the future’s already here. See this groundbreaking case study from a European insurer: https://lnkd.in/eeU3Ti-m The question isn't whether to embrace agent-first approaches, but how to implement them effectively while managing associated risks. #agenticAI #aiagents #agentfirstorganisation #augmentedworkforce #augmentedorganisation

Looking for high-energy, challenge/solution-focused sellers across the US. Capitalize Analytics continues to find incredible demand for data, analytics, AI/ML, etc. across every industry and department. We need your help capturing that demand! We help clients with solutions across many vendors like Alteryx, UiPath, Databricks, Snowflake, Microsoft, OpenAI, Workday Adaptive Planning, etc. The beauty is that we aren't just selling one "tool." We help clients with a full complement of training, professional services, long-term support/managed services, and we can sell the vendor solutions as a VAR when it makes sense. We even build our own products to extend the value we bring to clients and our partners. If you're truly looking to help with big challenges and want to partner with companies to expand their capabilities across the data platforms, Capitalize opens some incredible doors. We go where the demand is, and we pay our team on every dollar equally...software, services, renewals, etc. If you help a client and they are willing to pay for that help, we reward you. Like most things worth doing, the world of sales isn't easy. Leads must be found, needs identified, relationships built, creative solutions proposed, and organization/communication/follow-up are paramount. For those who strive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment, where creativity is rewarded, and rules are more guidelines than laws, Capitalize might be an incredible company to call home! Ready for the challenge and rewards? Let's GO! We are currently looking for people in the West, South, and Midwest, but we'll be adding folks across the US and Canada over the next six months, so don't be shy!

It’s not hard to guess the priorities at the top of your agenda: ✔ Better decision making  ✔ Saving time  ✔ Cutting costs Moving your data analytics to the cloud can help you to achieve just that. In fact, a recent study sponsored by Qlik discovered an average enterprise organization can experience $6.4M in benefits over three years.  ☁ If you’re looking to make the move to cloud-based analytics, but need the facts and figures to convince your colleagues, don’t miss our upcoming webinar.  On April 24, I will be joined by Boris Evelson, Vice President & Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, to discuss the study. What’s more, Mikkel Hecht Hansen, Head of BI at Nordisk Film, will be revealing the impact that cloud migration has had on their value chain.  The Economic Impact of Cloud Analytics, with Forrester's Boris Evelson is on April 24 and there’s still time to register: https://lnkd.in/e6AemqUw    Will you be joining?  #Cloud #Data #DataAnalytics #DataIntegration #DigitalTransformation
