Hi, my name is Gene Un. I'm a director of product marketing at Own Company.

What's the first thing you think of when you hear the word "death"? Well, it's

0:08

probably not positive. There's credit card debt, student loans, mortgages, and

0:12

none of these make us feel warm and fuzzy inside. Now imagine another kind of

0:16

death in the pileup without you even realizing it. It's called technical debt

0:21

and it can be just as overwhelming. Everywhere today, businesses are asking

0:26

employees to build more with less, more features, more tools, often built in

0:31

house or using ad hoc solutions. Does that sound familiar to you? Technical

0:35

debt

0:36

accumulates when shortcuts are taken in development, often to meet tight

0:39

deadlines

0:40

or to respond to urban business needs. Now while these shortcuts can solve

0:44

immediate problems, the option leads to increased maintenance costs and slower

0:48

future enhancements. This debt can significantly delay necessary updates

0:53

causing a ripple effect that slows down new feature implementations and

0:56

increases

0:57

project costs overall. In fact, within the Salesforce ecosystem alone, it's

1:02

estimated that companies grapple with more than $3 billion in technical debt

1:06

and radiation costs. Now addressing technical debt in Salesforce might require

1:10

an initial investment, but it's crucial for maintaining agility and

1:15

competitiveness in the world. Want to learn more? Check out our new guide, "How

1:20

to Build

1:21

Better, Faster in Salesforce." Strategies for more efficient development.

Thanks.
