AI in Sales?

I have some friends in ecommerce who are using AI to generate images, content, etc. Seems like a disruptive technology for sure.


But....Has anyone figured out how to leverage it well as a salesperson? It's generated me some (bad) emails, but that seems to be it.


Maybe generating list of potential companies to sell to? Interested to hear if anyone's played around.

I’ve used it to shortcut long, structured, formal proposals that just generally need more words, but not without a long word-for-word edit. Otherwise, it’s absolutely not replacing any of us any time soon.

The topic has been beaten to death. Hit the search bar.

We need a function that scans any post for 'AI' and prompts them to use the search bar before it actually goes live..

I have used it to help with proposals. That’s about it.

I don’t know, I think AI is super helpful, the prompts are the real deal, definitely helps when your organization is pro-AI.

I use it for emails, content, subject lines even. Also, helps in my LinkedIn game.

I think the more you dig deep, more you can see the value it can add.

There are companies right now that are doing some solid work. Copy.ai is one of them!

I’ve used it as targeting (who is in the space) and specifics about the company for prep work. It saves a decent amount of time on the research about the company, who to target, what to look at. Just gotta hope it’s right.

Also, it is a great grammar checker

I've yet to find a use case for AI when meeting with clients face-to-face...

Gong's AI follow-up emails is pretty solid, obviously needs some editing.
Also use it to read through sustainability/SEC reporting for gaps I can leverage.

Let me give you some advice:

Open a dialogue, explaining exactly what your company does and explain your product (if it doesnt already know) you can ask it first.

Then proceed to ask it to craft some discovery questions, you can specify 'with the SPIN method' or whatever sales methodology you have in mind.
Do the same for every other part of of your process and bam! You have some awesome tailored sales questions you can lean on and improve on - You can even get it to provide solutions and ask it for common pains if you know your target persona and industry..
I have found this to be really useful, it can go really deep! Ofcourse its best for giving ideas and wont plug all the gaps but it often gives me angles I have forgotten so yeah super useful in this regard.

I’ve seen it used for prospecting and generating automated emails. Am slowly working on implementing a few of these into my own workflows to see what’s what. Will report back what the robots do 🤖
