Description:
Salesforce shares fell 18% after the company reported fiscal first-quarter revenue that missed estimates for the first time since 2006 and provided lighter-than-expected guidance. Revenue for the quarter increased 11% but still came in below analysts' estimates. Guidance also came in below estimates. Analysts said broader macroeconomic challenges impacted Salesforce's performance during the quarter more than expected. Execution issues and changes to their go-to-market strategy also played a role. Analysts remain optimistic about Salesforce's long-term prospects, especially around their investments in generative AI and how it could drive future growth.

But in the years since it has substantially expanded its product range including offering state-of-the-art televisions.<br/><br/>In its recently published annual results for 2023, the company recorded revenue of £300.4m, 25 per cent on 2022. Profit stood at £2.3m, 43 per cent higher than the previous year.<br/><br/>The British operation is a small cog in a much bigger wheel, with Hisense having around 100,000 employees globally, a turnover of almost $30bn and its own vast research and development centres across the world.<br/><br/>Meeting The Yorkshire Post at the company’s impressive new offices and showroom at the White Rose Office Park, vice-president Howard Grindrod said the UK operation is already on course to beat the 2023 revenue figure in 2024 and sees further growth on the horizon.<br/><br/>\")

Seven years later, she owns the most successful Black-owned liquor empire, worth $1.1 billion, with ambitious plans for the future. Including real estate, Weaver’s 40% stake makes her worth $480 million, landing her at No. 68 on Forbes’ Richest Self-Made Women list.<br/><br/>Weaver wasn’t a Jack Daniel’s drinker, but she knew there were countless former slaves whose stories, like Green’s, had been erased from history. As Green was no longer part of parent company Brown-Forman’s official history of Jack Daniel’s, Weaver sought to rectify that.<br/><br/>The first Uncle Nearest whiskey—named 1856 for the year it is believed Nearest Green perfected charcoal filtration—debuted in 2017 and went on to win the first of more than 1,000 awards for the brand. Today, there are seven Uncle Nearest releases—bourbons and ryes all produced under the direction of Victoria Eady Butler, Green’s great-great-granddaughter.<br/><br/>Read the full story on Forbes:<br/>https://www.forbes.com/sites/chloesorvino/2024/05/28/fawn-weaver-interview-uncle-nearest-whiskey-unicorn/<br/><br/>0:00 Intro<br/>1:21 From Rebellious Kid to Entrepreneur<br/>2:40 Leaving Home at 15<br/>3:32 Finding Purpose<br/>4:52 The Story of Uncle Nearest Green<br/>7:25 Fitting the Pieces Together<br/>9:31 The Power of Charcoal Filtration<br/>10:04 “I Should Have Failed”<br/>12:49 Setting Up the Next Generation<br/>14:03 Beating the Odds<br/><br/>Subscribe to FORBES: https://www.youtube.com/user/Forbes?sub_confirmation=1<br/><br/>Fuel your success with Forbes.
