The Year of the AI Agent: How Thynk.ai is Revolutionizing Sales 28:32

منذ 4 أيام28:32

28:32

www.gtmaiacademy.com www.aibusinessnetwork.ai www.thynk.ai The Year of the AI Agent: How Thynk.ai is Revolutionizing Sales In my latest GTM AI Podcast episode, I reconnected with John Long and Dane Oborn, longtime friends and co-founders of Thynk.AI Their journey from sales professionals to AI innovators is remarkable - after experiencing the frustrations of inefficient sales processes firsthand, they've built a solution that's changing the game. Thynk.ai has developed autonomous AI agents that handle the entire pre-sales process from prospecting to discovery, solving a problem every GTM leader understands: ensuring every sales conversation is productive. What struck me most was seeing how their experience in the trenches of sales informed their tech development, creating a solution that addresses real pain points rather than theoretical problems. [00:40:04] From frustration to innovation: Thynk.ai emerged because John and Dane couldn't find existing tools that managed the complete pre-sales workflow—they needed something that called, texted, qualified, and prepared prospects before human sales involvement [00:49:43] True AI agents vs. assistants: Unlike interactive AI assistants that require constant human guidance, their agents work autonomously toward defined objectives, fundamentally changing how we think about sales development roles [01:02:27] The "hands-off" moment: Business owners experience a paradigm shift watching AI agents independently engage with leads in real-time, handling complex conversations without human intervention [01:19:31] AI's workforce transformation: Rather than simply cutting jobs, the most strategic companies are leveraging AI to amplify their human talent while expanding their total addressable market [01:25:31] Strategic AI implementation framework: John's "three buckets" approach helps GTM leaders distinguish between superficial AI tools, meaningful operational enhancements, and revolutionary custom solutions Building Intelligence: The Core of Thynk AI When I invited John and Dane to dig into the mechanics of their AI agents, he explained, "Dan and I both have a background in sales… and through that process, we were constantly frustrated with unqualified leads." This mutual frustration led them to explore AI's potential to streamline the pre-sales process, ensuring sales reps engage with prospects ready for meaningful conversations. "Imagine if there was a way for AI to help with that pre-sales motion," John continued. "Wouldn't it be cool?" This vision materialized into Thynk AI's agent technology, capable of performing tasks like prospecting, calling, texting, and even holding discovery calls autonomously.…

Mastering Sales with AI: Strategies for Effective Coaching & Revenue Growth 38:17

منذ 11 يومًا38:17

38:17

www.gtmaiacademy.com www.aibusinessnetwork.ai In the ever-evolving landscape of sales, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a pivotal tool for redefining how companies operate. Recently, on the GTMAI podcast, Jonathan Moss interviewed 🚀 Victor Adefuye co-founder and CEO of Dana Consulting (NYC) to explore how AI is revolutionizing the sales industry. Below, we delve into the conversation, capturing Victor's insights on training, coaching, forecasting, and more. AI: A Catalyst for Sales Efficiency Victor opened the discussion by highlighting a key area of inefficiency in sales: the gap between training and actionable results. He stressed that despite tactical inefficiencies within sales teams, the disconnect between coaching and real-world outcomes is a deeper challenge. Victor pointed out that while market conditions and products can make any salesperson appear successful, true proficiency is tested when outcomes are lacking. AI, he argues, provides the clarity needed to reassess strategies, structure training, and sustain behavioral changes necessary for long-term success. Training and Development: The Athlete's Mindset Drawing a parallel between sales professionals and athletes, Victor emphasized the importance of preparation. Just as athletes prepare for game day, sales professionals must refine their skills continuously. Coaching, regular training, and reliable feedback form the cornerstone of sustained improvement. AI plays a significant role here, by providing data-driven insights that help identify precise skill gaps. Through this, organizations can develop tailored training and coaching strategies that ensure progress is tangible and accountable. The Power of Personalized Coaching AI enhances sales training by offering personalized insights, enabling meaningful, targeted interventions. Victor shared examples of how AI can analyze call data, provide constructive feedback, and monitor progress. This not only optimizes the coaching process but ensures that sales reps aren't practicing on customers. By establishing clear baselines and mapping sales processes, AI ensures organizations can define and track both individual and team growth effectively. Revolutionizing Forecasting Through AI On forecasting, Victor discussed leveraging AI to enhance accuracy. By incorporating standardized scoring systems, such as MEDDPICC, companies can objectively evaluate opportunities based on defined criteria. AI streamlines this process, offering managers a comprehensive view of deal status and potential, helping to avoid inflated forecasts. Such precision allows sales leaders to align closer with reality and provide more reliable, data-driven projections. Implementing AI: Training and Workflow Integration Victor cautioned against the misconception that simply acquiring AI tools is enough. Instead, he emphasized a focused implementation strategy, rooted in proper training and integration into existing workflows. Training sales teams for comfort and proficiency in using AI tools is essential. He underscored the importance of creating environments where AI use blends seamlessly into daily activities, ensuring the transition is smooth and sustainable. Key Quotes: "The disconnect between training and skill development and actual results has driven me the most in sales." "Salespeople are performers. Just like athletes, you get judged on what happens when it's game time." "AI allows us for the first time to address a lot of these gaps in insight and behavior change necessary to sustain growth." "You can't just buy a piece of software or even build one and expect it to solve the problem. It's about skill development." "Personalized coaching is key. AI gives us the ability to identify personalized skill gaps and develop targeted plans."…

Learn more about SolutionBridge: https://lnkd.in/ezSzQZ9v Apply to join (2 min): https://lnkd.in/e8A7cjNh Let’s shape the future of AI together. Podcast Summary Andrew recounts his journey from early startup ventures—including his experience founding a consumer company that integrated hardware and software—to transitioning into roles at primary venture partners, where he honed his approach to scaling businesses and events. He emphasizes a critical lesson learned early on: the market’s dynamics often outweigh the merits of any single business. Andrew discusses how his experiences led him to pivot toward AI, a field undergoing rapid change and offering immense potential for businesses. In exploring AI’s deployment in various sectors, he highlights the confusion many business leaders face when attempting to integrate AI into their operations, given the often overwhelming array of vendor-led solutions. Instead, Andrew’s approach with the HumanX event is intentionally independent, avoiding vendor biases. The event is designed to serve as a comprehensive roadmap for businesses aiming to implement AI. Bullet Points of Discussion Andrew Blum’s Journey: Transition from founding startups to taking on roles at primary venture partners. Key insight: “The market matters a lot more than the individual business itself.” Pivot to AI: Observations on the rapidly evolving AI landscape and the confusion among business leaders regarding effective adoption. Recognition that traditional vendor-led events are limited by inherent biases. Event Strategy: Scaling an event from the outset by planning for a large audience (starting at 3,500 attendees in Las Vegas). Incorporation of multiple session formats: keynotes, industry-specific panels, workshops, and networking through one-to-one matchmaking. Differentiating the Event: Combining the best elements of academic, thought leadership, and vendor ecosystem events to deliver actionable insights. Emphasis on an independent perspective free from vendor bias. Leadership and AI Adoption: The dual importance of robust data infrastructure (managed by CTOs/CIOs) and a culture that encourages sharing practical AI use cases. Discussion on how AI tools can empower individuals across all business functions. Quotes from Andrew Blum “My biggest takeaway was that the market matters a lot more than the individual business itself.” “Rising tide lifts all boats.” “If you're not encouraged to share use cases and openly speak about the stuff that you're doing, your company is not going to benefit from it.” “The best part about AI for me is that the hardest thing of any task is getting started.” “I always have ChatGPT open. I'm always like, 'Okay, let me throw this in and get a first draft,' which usually gets me 50% of the way there.”…

Successfully Selling AI Solutions in Today's Market 38:57

www.gtmaipodcast.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/ram-b-01012b183/ www.gtmaiacademy.com www.aibusinessnetwork.ai The 2024 AI Go-To-Market Playbook: How to Successfully Sell AI Solutions in Today's Market | Insights from Tech Leader Ram Bulusu In a recent conversation with Ram Bulusu, a veteran technology leader with 35 years in healthcare technology and current head of AI and Digital at Sanofi, we explored the evolving landscape of AI implementation and go-to-market strategies. Ram shared invaluable insights from his experience bridging the gap between advanced technology and practical business applications, particularly in highly regulated industries like healthcare. The Evolution of AI Implementation The conversation revealed a critical shift in how organizations should approach AI adoption. Traditional methods of implementing AI have focused heavily on technological capabilities, often leading to sophisticated platforms that fail to address specific business needs. Ram emphasized that the future belongs to industry-specific solutions that prioritize practical application over technical prowess. Healthcare serves as a perfect case study for this evolution. The industry, traditionally lagging in technology adoption due to regulatory constraints and complexity, is now seeing successful AI implementations that focus on specific outcomes rather than general capabilities. These successes come from understanding and addressing particular industry challenges, from drug development to patient care. The New Go-to-Market Paradigm Ram's insights revealed a fundamental truth about selling AI solutions: success lies not in the sophistication of the technology but in its ability to solve specific business problems. This approach requires a deep understanding of industry verticals and the ability to translate technical capabilities into practical business outcomes. The most successful implementations start with a clear business problem, develop a targeted solution, and ensure easy implementation. This contrasts sharply with the traditional approach of building complex platforms and trying to find problems they might solve. Security and Implementation Challenges A significant portion of our discussion focused on the critical balance between innovation and security. Ram highlighted how companies, particularly in regulated industries, must navigate the complex landscape of data protection, compliance, and practical implementation. The solution, he suggests, lies in a graduated approach: starting small, proving value, and expanding gradually while maintaining robust security measures. Looking Ahead: 2024-2026 Ram predicts a significant shift in the AI landscape over the next few years, with industry-specific solutions becoming dominant. He envisions a future where AI tools are as ubiquitous as electricity but implemented in highly specialized ways for different industries and applications. ## Key Quotes from Ram: "Nobody cares how great your technology is - show me what business problem it can solve." "Don't start with the technology. Start with the end user problem you're trying to solve." "You can't have your software tool making a final decision. You can have it make a recommendation, but you need a human being to come in and make sure you protect the privacy of the patient." "The vast majority of the technology really is a platform. I can't use a platform to do my job. I want a plug and play tool." "When I first demonstrated Gen AI to my quality team and said, this is going to create a quality plan for you... they looked at me like I was crazy. But when they saw the results, it was amazing." "Gen AI today is not even a Beta version. It's a version 0. By first quarter 2026, you're going to see so much power, it'll blow you away."…

Revolutionizing Sales Metrics with Alysio and AI 25:54

منذ 7 weeks25:54

25:54

https://www.gtmaiacademy.com https://www.alysio.ai Revolutionizing Sales Metrics with Alysio and AI In an era where AI and automation dominate sales technology headlines, this week's episode uncovers a refreshingly fundamental truth: sometimes the most powerful innovations start with the simplest questions. Ryan, CEO and co-founder of Alysio, joins us to share how a basic spreadsheet at Qualtrics evolved into a revolutionary approach to sales performance tracking. This episode dives deep into the intersection of metrics, motivation, and meaningful results, revealing how a straightforward question - "How do I know I've had a great day in sales?" - led to a transformation in how we think about sales success. For sales leaders struggling with accountability and performance tracking, and teams looking to drive consistent results, this conversation offers both practical insights and a glimpse into the future of sales performance management. What began as a simple spreadsheet experiment at Qualtrics would eventually reshape how sales teams approach daily success metrics. The story unfolds with a common challenge: despite having a full stack of sales tools (Salesforce, Clari, Gong, Outreach), teams still couldn't definitively answer whether they'd had a productive day. The solution emerged in the form of a point-based system where: - Sales activities were assigned specific point values - 10 cold calls might equal one point - One demo set could be worth two points - Daily goal: achieve 10 points The results were remarkable. Teams using this system consistently outperformed their peers and dominated President's Club nominations. The secret wasn't just in the tracking – it was in the clarity and motivation the system provided. Sellers knew exactly what constituted a successful day, and managers had concrete metrics to coach against. The success at Qualtrics was just the beginning. When Aaron, Ryan's co-founder, moved to Okta and later Lacework, he brought the spreadsheet system with him. At each company, the pattern repeated: - Teams using the point system consistently hit quota - The approach created positive accountability - Results were replicable across different sales environments - The system worked for both SDRs and AEs This consistent success across multiple organizations revealed something crucial: the fundamental principles of the system transcended individual company cultures and sales processes. What started as a spreadsheet had uncovered a universal truth about sales performance: when you can measure and incentivize the right activities consistently, results follow. The decision to transform this spreadsheet into a software platform came from recognizing several key factors: - Manual tracking became unwieldy beyond 5 reps - Real-time visibility was crucial for motivation - Historical data analysis was nearly impossible - Teams needed better ways to identify skill gaps - The system needed to scale while maintaining simplicity Modern Sales Trends - Physical, in-person connections becoming more valuable in the AI era - LinkedIn messages and referrals emerging as crucial but undertracked metrics - Balance between activity volume and personal touch points AI Integration in Sales Performance - AI-powered coaching based on individual performance patterns - Custom playbook integration for personalized guidance - Focus on closing skill gaps identified through data analysis - AI's role varies based on sales cycle complexity - More suitable for shorter sales cycles and PLG motions - Human touch remains crucial for complex, longer sales cycles - Emphasis on data-driven, but human-centric approaches Connect With Our Guest - LinkedIn: Ryan Harris - Email: ryan@alysio.ai or info@alysio.ai - Website: alysio.ai The Qualtrics Origin StoryValidation Across CompaniesFrom Spreadsheet to Software Key TakeawaysFuture of Sales Technology…

Transforming Enablement with AI Coaching 28:54

منذ 10 weeks28:54

28:54

So I finally got to sit down with Ioanna Mantzouridou Onasi CEO of Dextego Ioanna’s passion for understanding human motivation, coaching, and technology shines through her story—from her psychology roots to becoming a startup leader. We explored the gaps in traditional sales training, particularly how ineffective and biased role plays are, and how Dextego leverages AI to deliver timely, personalized coaching that actually works. She shared her take on the human-AI balance, emphasizing that technology should optimize human performance, not replace it. Dextego aims to coach reps throughout the sales cycle, reduce ramp-up times, and help them deliver value-driven messaging to the right persona at the right time. Ioanna also highlighted how AI can shift enablement from reactive to proactive, shorten sales cycles, and elevate reps with gamified, real-time learning. Lastly, we discussed the broader impact of AI on business workflows, emphasizing change management and the importance of clear strategies. AI Coaching Gaps in Sales Enablement : Traditional role plays are outdated and biased. Reps need coaching that aligns with real-world scenarios. First-time managers often lack proper coaching support. Dextego’s Core Value : AI coaching platform that blends company data, sales best practices, and human expertise to deliver targeted, real-time coaching. Use cases span onboarding, consistent messaging, and deal support. Results and Impact : Shortens sales cycles by 30% on average. Drives reps to deliver persona-specific value props, not scripts. AI as an Optimizer, Not a Replacer : Ioanna believes in improving human performance while automating low-value tasks. Sales remains a human-centric art of communication. Future of Enablement : AI agents will focus on specialized coaching areas like negotiation, discovery, and methodologies. Continuous feedback and tailored coaching styles are key. Upcoming Trends for Leaders : Companies need to rethink their tech stacks and decide what tools are foundational vs. integrative. AI tools can transform workflows, but change management is critical. On Coaching Gaps : “We found that the first-time managers—BDR managers, for example—just don’t get the training they deserve.” On the Power of AI : “The goal is to deliver the right coaching at the right time. Reps don’t have time to wait for feedback—AI makes it immediate.” On Sales Enablement Problems : “You tell a rep, ‘If the customer says A, say B,’ but the customer always says C or D.” On Human vs. AI Balance : “Sales is the art of communication. If we lose that, what are we as a civilization?” On Dextego’s Results : “On average, companies shorten their sales cycles by 30% when they use our platform.” On Using AI Responsibly : “Founders have a responsibility to create solutions that improve well-being, not just replace jobs because they can.” On the Bigger Picture : “It’s not about trying 10 pilots. It’s about being strategic and supporting yearly goals with real ROI.” This conversation was all about transforming sales enablement into something modern, effective, and human-first. Ioanna’s vision for Dextego and AI coaching is practical and forward-thinking. If you’re serious about accelerating your team’s performance and staying ahead in a changing market, Dextego is one to watch.

https://www.gtmaiacademy.com https://www.theysaid.io/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/lihonghicken/ Here's a clean breakdown of the interview: I spoke with Lihong Hicken, CEO and co-founder of Theysaid.io, about revolutionizing sales pipeline generation through AI-powered surveys. Lihong's journey from an intern building desks to becoming a CEO shapes her practical approach to sales technology. The conversation centered on transforming traditional surveys into intelligent sales tools. Theysaid.io's platform creates natural, conversational experiences that simultaneously qualify leads and gather market insights. This dual-purpose approach helps companies understand customer needs, predict churn, and identify upsell opportunities before they surface through conventional metrics. We explored several practical applications, including win/loss analysis, customer sentiment tracking, and pipeline building. A key differentiator is their ability to achieve a conversation depth of 10.5 interactions per question, vastly outperforming traditional surveys' 0-1 response rate. The most valuable insights came from Lihong's examples of using AI surveys for outbound prospecting. Rather than cold pitching, her team approaches prospects with research questions, creating engaging conversations that naturally lead to qualified sales opportunities. 2. Key Points: - AI survey technology evolution and impact on sales processes - Conversion of research conversations into sales opportunities - Win/loss analysis transformation through AI - Proactive approach to upsell identification - Customer sentiment tracking methodology - Pipeline generation through conversational AI - Practical implementation of AI in sales workflows - Training AI to represent company voice and values - Integration of feedback across customer journey - Market research automation and scaling 3. Notable Quotes: "The best salesperson asks good questions. Why not let AI ask these questions at scale?" "Most companies wait until customers leave to ask why. You should be asking before they leave." "You don't want a general AI chatting with your customer. You want it to be YOUR employee, trained with your company information." "Sales is about understanding people... you need to understand first." "If you can handle things at the speed of yearly reviews, great. But CRO is the most fired job ever. You need to act fast." "You're thinking like, if you go to the market, you understand what they think, what language they use, what their concern is... you build a product to fit their use case and their pricing expectation - how can you not win?" This interview provides valuable insights for sales leaders looking to leverage AI for deeper customer understanding and more efficient pipeline generation.…

https://www.gtmaipodcast.com https://www.gtmaiacademy.com AI for Business Leaders: How Causal Analytics Drives 8X Growth Featuring ⁠Mark Stouse⁠ ( https://www.linkedin.com/in/markstouse/ ) CEO of ⁠proofanalytics.ai⁠ Episode Overview In this power-packed episode, Mark Stouse reveals how causal analytics and AI are revolutionizing business decision-making. From his journey as an HP executive to becoming a pioneer in AI analytics, Mark shares insights on turning data into profitable business decisions. Key Insights 1. The AI Multiplication Effect - Traditional view: AI drives efficiency - Reality: AI multiplies human capability - Formula for Success: - High performers + AI = Exponential growth - Average performers + AI = Steady improvement - Low performers + AI = Minimal impact 2. Marketing's Hidden ROI - Breakthrough Finding: Marketing acts as a performance multiplier - Impact on Sales Teams: - 8x increase in effectiveness - 5x boost in efficiency - Warning: Cutting marketing shows delayed negative impacts 3. Evolution of Business Analytics - Past: Months of manual statistical work - Present: Real-time GPS-like guidance - Future: AI-powered causal forecasting Quotable Moments "In the era of cheap money, who cared about inefficiency? Now everything has changed." "Data becomes a proto-asset that as soon as you use analytics to turn it into something of utility, an insight that helps you make a better decision, that helps you make more money. Then and only then does it become an asset." "The definition of a good model is how close it gets to real life... They have to confront a whole bunch of assumptions, usually, that they've always made that turned out to not be true." "I'm a corporate version of a UN translator" - (when discussing his ability to bridge communication gaps between different C-suite roles) "When you don't speak the other guy's language... CDOs and CFOs were both using the word 'predictive' and yet it became very clear to me sitting there that they were using it very differently." "If you're in high school and no one wants to date you and then something happens and everybody wants to date you... that's what it's like" - (discussing how market demand for their solution changed when economic conditions shifted) Deep Dive: Causal Analytics Why It Matters Now: - Economic uncertainty demands better forecasting - Complex market conditions require deeper insights - Time lag effects need better measurement How It Works: - Combines internal & external data - Accounts for time lag effects - Creates "spaghetti models" for probability analysis Executive Application 1. Decision Making - Move from gut feelings to data-driven insights - Understand true cause-and-effect relationships - Measure impact across time horizons 2. Resource Allocation - Identify highest-impact activities - Understand multiplier effects - Optimize investment timing 3.

AI Led Growth: The New Path for AI and Sales with 1Mind CEO Amanda Kahlow 39:41

https://www.gtmaiacademy.com https://www.gtmaipodcast.com https://www.1mind.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/amandakahlow/ # The AI Revolution No One's Talking About: My Eye-Opening Conversation with 1Mind CEO Amanda Kahlow After my conversation with Amanda Kahlow, I had to take a moment to process what I'd just learned. As someone who's spent years in enablement and worked with countless AI companies, I thought I understood where AI was headed in the GTM space. I was wrong. ## The Uncomfortable Truth Here's what kept me up after this conversation: Many of us are still planning our 2024-2025 GTM strategies based on assumptions that might be obsolete faster than we think. While we're debating whether to use ChatGPT for email templates, companies like 1Mind are fundamentally changing the game. ## What This Means for Your Career If you're in GTM, you need to be thinking about: 1. **Skill Evolution**: Technical knowledge becomes less valuable; strategic thinking and relationship building become crucial 2. **Role Transformation**: Traditional roles will evolve or disappear, but new roles (AI trainers, conversation designers) will emerge 3. **Strategic Impact**: Understanding how to integrate AI into GTM strategy becomes a career-defining skill ## The Most Surprising Insights 1. **PLG to AILG**: Amanda introduced the concept of "AI-Led Growth" as the evolution of Product-Led Growth. This isn't just a buzzword – it's a fundamental shift in how we think about scaling businesses. 2. **Buyer Control**: The ability for buyers to choose their preferred AI representative, including matching cultural and ethnic preferences, could revolutionize personalization in sales. 3. **Technical Depth**: The combination of deterministic and generative AI means these systems can handle complex technical sales conversations, not just basic qualification. ## What You Need to Do Now 1. **Audit Your GTM Tech Stack**: How much of it could be enhanced or replaced by AI solutions? 2. **Review Your Team Structure**: Are your current roles aligned with where the market is heading? 3. **Skill Assessment**: What skills do your teams need to develop to stay relevant? 4. **AI Integration Strategy**: Start thinking about how to integrate AI into your GTM motion before your competitors do ## The Bottom Line The conversation with Amanda made one thing clear: This isn't about whether AI will transform GTM – it's about how quickly it's happening and who will adapt first. The companies that figure this out early will have an insurmountable advantage. As Amanda put it, "We can embrace change with fear or with love." For GTM leaders, I'd add a third option: embrace it with strategy. For those interested in seeing this future firsthand, check out 1Mind.com or reach out to Amanda at amanda@1mind.com. Trust me – you want to be ahead of this curve, not chasing it.…

Kroolo The Only AI Productivity Tool You Will Ever Need 30:52

www.gtmaiacademy.com https://kroolo.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/shashank295/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/wadekatie/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/steven-macneil-15556a2/ Kroolo The Only Productivity Tool You Will Ever Need: I have gotten to know the Kroolo team fairly well over this last month or so and been impressed by how they have thought through and executed on their tech. FYI, I am not an advisor, nor am paid for this post, I just think the tech is amazing. As someone who's constantly testing new tech (and I want to be clear - this isn't a paid promotion!), I was genuinely impressed by what Shashank Singh (Founder/CEO), Katie Wade (Head of Product), and my "bald brother" Steven MacNeil (Founding AE) have built over the last year. What sets them apart? They've created an AI-native platform that's actually language model agnostic - meaning if OpenAI goes down, they can switch to Google's LLMs or others seamlessly OR they leverage the best LLM for the task required. It's like having multiple AI engines under one hood, all working together to supercharge your productivity. Key Highlight Moments: • Discovery that Kroolo reduces team meetings by 60% through intelligent AI agents • Discussion of how true AI-native architecture differs from "bolt-on" AI solutions • Revelation about their platform-agnostic approach to LLMs (OpenAI, Google, etc.) • Insight into how they're tackling AI bias in productivity tools • Preview of their upcoming agent-focused framework and rebranding • Real-world impact on reducing implementation time from days to hours Notable Quotes: Katie Wade: "Almost think we're at a space now where if it's not as easy as pulling your iPhone out of an iPhone box, turning it on and just intuitively understanding how to work it, people just don't want to do it anymore." "It's the collaboration because you probably would have agonized over three sentences. And if you run it as AI, here's the three different ways you could say it." Shashank Singh: "We will reduce the number of meetings by 60 percent... the platform is intelligent enough where agents could be trained and deployed. And whatever you normally ask these questions in traditional stand ups and meetings, those could be answered by pre-trained, co-piloted agents." "If somebody is not betting on agentic, I think making it some serious problem for looking through. The future is agentic." Steve McNeil: "You're only going to establish the right ROI model if you can actually utilize the technology effectively and quickly... that's the one thing that really resonates with me." I thoroughly enjoyed talking to the team and think you will enjoy it.…

ChatAE Founder Reveals How AI Sales Tools Are Actually Making Sales Teams Better, Not Replacing Them 35:54

منذ 17 weeks35:54

35:54

www.gtmaiacademy.com https://www.chatae.ai/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/dustinbeaudoin/ Why I'm Excited About This Conversation Just had a fascinating chat with Dustin, the founder of ChatAE, who's bringing a fresh perspective to AI in sales. What caught my attention immediately was their tagline: "Not another AI SDR." In a space crowded with tools claiming to replace salespeople, Dustin's approach is refreshingly different – focusing on making salespeople better rather than replacing them. Key Takeaways 🎯 The Real Problem ChatAE Solves The heart of what Dustin's building addresses two critical issues I see daily in sales: - Most sales reps aren't using AI effectively in their workflow - Teams are constantly pressured to do more with less resources 💡 Why It's Different Than Just Using ChatGPT This resonated with me deeply as someone who teaches AI to sales teams. While ChatGPT is powerful, most salespeople don't have the time or interest to become prompt engineering experts. ChatAE removes that barrier by pre-configuring the AI to think like an on-demand sales manager, specifically for pre and post-call tasks. 🚀 Impact on Sales Teams What really got me excited was hearing about the results with junior reps. One sales manager reported that ChatAE helped their 6-12 month new AEs perform like much more tenured reps in their call preparation and strategy. This is exactly what good enablement should do – remove barriers while improving performance. Memorable Quotes from Dustin > "The thing that gets me most excited is how we can help grow C+ AEs into B+ AEs by helping them do these pre and post call activities the right way." > "Our competition is actually Chat GPT – like people paying for Chat GPT pro and creating custom GPTs. But there's both a raw time savings component and a user experience difference with ChatAE." > "We're not trying to be things that already work... focus on the areas they're ignoring, which is these routine administrative tasks and do so in an accessible way." Looking Ahead What struck me most was Dustin's vision of AI becoming like electricity – just part of how software works rather than a standalone feature. This aligns perfectly with my view of where sales enablement is heading: tools should take weight off plates rather than add to them. If you're interested in checking it out, ChatAE is accessible at ChatAE.ai with a free trial and a straightforward $19/month tier with unlimited usage. This kind of accessibility is exactly what the market needs – no complex enterprise rollouts, just practical tools that make sales professionals more effective. This conversation reinforced my belief that the future of sales isn't about replacing humans with AI, but about using AI to make humans better at what they do best – building relationships and closing deals.…
