AI and the Science of Sales

Knownwell
About this episode

How is AI going to change the world of B2B sales? And if sales reps today only spend 28% of their time selling, where do they spend the other 72%?  

In this episode, the team talks about how AI intersects with sales and how you can leverage it in your business.

First, Courtney welcomes Mohan to the show for another edition of "AI Mythbusters". Today's topic: AI is relatively new. Mohan has some strong feelings about it.

After that, Courtney, David and Mohan are joined by special guest, Andre Yee from Tiga AI. They explore how AI is revolutionizing sales processes and emphasize the blend of data-driven insights and the essential human elements of sales relationships.

After that, Pete chats with SBI's Nick Toman about his company's research into B2B selling profiles and the impact AI has on sales.
