In reading an article about the latest hints and tips in using AI for prospecting, a sentence stood out to me. It talked about how “mundane” outbound is. The idea of reaching out, trying to engage prospects in talking about their challenges, problems, concerns, as well as their dreams and aspirations is boring and dull is striking. And, perhaps, it is this mindset that underlies the poor results we get from our prospecting.

And it’s causing a big rethink on the viability of web-based analytics — a category caught in the crossfire between government regulators, Big Tech and our own mo

Salespeople have a reputation for overpromising in their pitch. You’ve heard the adage about salespeople telling a customer “Of course we can do that!” to close a sale. But back at the office, they’ll ask their delivery or product team in a panic, “We can do that, right?” A written sales contract should accurately reflect the verbal agreements made — or else you risk the buyer backing out of the deal or having a very unhappy or potentially litigious client aft
