As sales manager, business line leader, or CEO, is your team finding, qualifying and closing as much business as you think they should? Most say "No" when we ask that question, which means that something in your client outreach and sales process has to change. And that change, we believe, starts at the very beginning. The call or outreach to set up an appointment is key.

I had already written the book when the publisher approached me and asked if I had ever considered writing a book. I told him that I already had. He asked me why he couldn’t find it, and I told him that it wasn’t out yet. It would be available early next year, on January 15, 2016. Then, he asked me what it was called. I told him what I planned to call it.

Change is constant, but one thing is certain: hype cycles grab attention and influence budgets, for better or worse. Artificial intelligence (AI) is just the latest enterprise fixation, but it won’t be the last. Additionally, AI is too broad a term to focus on, with generative AI taking much of the oxygen in conversations, yet with other forms of artificial intelligence, such as predictive analytics and robotic process automation (RPA), having a larger existing footprint.

As magical as artificial intelligence (AI) feels when it pumps out recommendations, recipes, or works of art in seconds, its greatest trick may be helping humanity build a more sustainable future.

By Tom Swanson Engagement Manager at Heinz Marketing Let’s get straight to the point: there is no one-size-fits-all approach to integrating AI. Part of this is because of regular change management rules (every change is different, etc.), but another part is just how nebulous the term “AI” is. Somewhere in the past 6 months I lost sight of what the term actually means.

I suppose it’s human nature to be self centered, focused on those things that impact each of us, our goals, dreams, and aspirations. Within business, we focus relentlessly on our own performance objectives/goals/comp. We are consumed by the day to day activities and tasks critical to achieving those goals. I talk to many sellers frustrated by the “obstacles” standing in their way, “Just leave me alone, let me do my job!

Consumption pricing is associated with some of the fastest-growing SaaS companies of the past few years, including Snowflake , Datadog , Zscaler , and MongoDB. The consumption-based pricing model is popular because it helps these types of companies manage costs and gives the customer more control and transparency in how much they’re billed. But if the customer doesn’t directly see the value of your solution, they may stagnate or even fall in their usage.

Yesterday, coaching an executive, the key issue was “freeing up time.” For such a senior executive, to some it might seem surprising, but it comes up in virtually every conversation I have, at every level of the organization. It’s interesting, I see two, almost diametrically oppose, things happening when we look to free up time.
